It is time to review the next TREX in line, the MSI Creator TRX40. This Threadripper 3000 motherboard is ready for anything from 24 to 64 cores really. It has a beefy 16-phase VRM, you may mount up-to six M.2 SSDs with the help of an add-in card, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, AX wifi. The list goes on and on.

It's not really important, but the CPUZ single thread scores look kind of weird. There's no way for a 8600 to get higher scores than a 8700k. The 7740X also should not have a way to get that score. This is older silicon with lower boost clocks, although let's be honest, Kaby and Coffee Lake cores are more or less identical. Same goes for the 7900x. Even the 9600K boosts a bit lower than the 8700K, although one could make the argument for newer silicon with the hardware mitigations in it.
By the way, the bench scores differences between CPUZ versions can be dramatic. I know it is not feasible to redo the older parts each CPUZ release, however, you'll end up with the weird chart where the 8700K is somehow on par with the 4790K in single thread performance.

thank you specifically for this one Hilbert, going to read it later saturday but I can't wait to read the review while I wait for my parts because I already ordered one
