4.2GHz cant be the correct all core boost.
Der8auer needed to modify a MSI X299 Gaming pro carbon to keep his 7900X 10 core from burning the VRM at 4500MHz
A 18 core at 4200MHz must be at least the same power as the 10 core at 4500MHz so i dont see that happening as a daily driver.

So when will AMD get out of its budget brand image? With ZERO performance lead in all of the market they're in excluding consoles, this seems very unlikely.

What a beast. 7940x should destroy the 1950x in everything as well when the much lesser 7900x can hold its own against them. And yeah, no compromising content consumption performance as well like the Threadrippers and their awfully high latency and reliance and that sad "Game Mode."

Problem with boost levels is, yeah they great in benchmarks where they are only pushed for a very limited amount of time but real wold where heat, power level and voltage levels come into effect that 4.2GHz will drop off sharply over extended periods.

I'm not sure i trust these benchmarks. The i9 7980xe is such a lower frequency processor, that how much "better" it seems to be in many of these tests vs the 1950x which is at a much higher base frequency just doesn't add up, for 2 additional cores. They could be correct, i'm not outright saying they are incorrect, i'm just cautious about these results.
1950X 16c/32t @ 3.4Ghz/4.0 Boost
7980XE 18c/34t @ 2.6Ghz/3.4Ghz Boost
lol, your post, just...lol
Someone doesn't understand how to, well, understand logic, due to fanboy blindness.
If you actually look at the information, and actually understand it, then nothing you'd be saying makes sense.
Stop trolling, or stop fanboying, whichever one you are definitely, 100% doing, stop it.
Seriously, stop trolling, stop flame baiting. If your only purpose to join these forums is to troll and flamebait, i can guarantee you, you will not last long here.

With the turbo that high, the single-threaded performance is no surprise. Meanwhile, it's not just 2 additional cores, but 4 additional threads. That's substantial, where I'd say it's ranking seems just about where it should be.
For $1000 extra, it sure as hell ought to be better than the 1950X...
That's not the 7980XE's frequency specs:
