    Which is a shame because our 3700X is still pretty potent for the average user or gamer.

      Yeah, I have been eyeing upgrades to get avx512 anyway because lately I have been doing very heave very low preset av1 encodes but when they are a dick about it I just feel like postponing it.

      At launch, I’ve upgraded my system to a 3900x, and even today, it fulfills my cpu needs. This thing is incredible
