A few weeks ago AMD announced three XT series processors. Today we offer a review on each and all of them. The new XT series will provide a bit more bite performance in single and lower threaded workloads. All at the same price as the original X series product.

"Hey guys, we're still here, please buy our CPUs !"
I have seen ridiculously useless refreshes from Intel many times, but this one really tops the chart as the most pointless CPU refresh ever.
They literally offer NOTHING better, quite the contrary, they offer LESS:
Pay more to lose an otherwise useful cooler that could go on a cheaper/older secondary AM4 cpu ... srsly ?

In UK, cheapest prices:
3600 - £157
3600XT - £249
3800X - £279
Yea, it's a novelty model and prices are screwed, but +58% cost for single digit perf increase, that's real bad value.
Might as well throw in £30 and get 2C/4T more.

In Norway 3900xt has the exact same price as 10900k. Epic fail.
