And the current availability on the AMD chips is any better? Retail channels for both are dry, I have a pair of 3970’s on order and I won’t see them till April at the earliest.Totally bogus review.
A legitimate review would have used retail-purchased CPUs which makes comparison impossible since the Intel offering is vaporware.

This says it right here, it's all that matters!
"In general, the Ryzen Threadripper 3970X is a better gaming processor than the Core i9-10980XE. AMD's 32-core part delivers up to three more average frames per second in five out of nine titles. The Core i9-10980XE only beat the Ryzen Threadripper 3970X in three titles, with differences up to eight frames per second.
Winner: AMD. The Ryzen Threadripper 3970X might not be a gaming monster, but it's still marginally faster than the Core i9-10980XE. If you plan to do a fair bit of gaming, the Ryzen Threadripper 3970X has your back."
Yeah the scalpers.... No retail channels currently have any 3950X, 3960X, 3970X, parts available, they are all backordered. AMD reps are telling us they plan to have the backlog filled come March which means I wont have mine till April. Yes there are some people who have theirs, but the bulk of us dont. While not technically a paper launch it is pretty damned close.https://hardforum.com/threads/which...-in-the-next-60-days.1990403/#post-1044431116
Yes. Availability is MUCH better. People actually have them.

I didn't lie.. apparently you didn't check them all.They all say I stock but for warehouse availability they all say the same thing.

Well shit US gets them before us Canadians, after Christmas I will have to see if they still have stock and if they ship to Canada.
Found them all on google shopping, try that for CA.Well shit US gets them before us Canadians, after Christmas I will have to see if they still have stock and if they ship to Canada.

People have the nerve to flat out post lies...really annoying. I need to use the ignore feature more
And here I was like Ooh the 20’th is pretty close so yeah I’ll give it to you on that. Then I looked and the date and quickly realized I am horribly unprepared for Christmas.
You wouldn’t be the first nor the last.People have the nerve to flat out post lies...really annoying. I need to use the ignore feature more not directed at you...
What am I lying about, Synnex and Ingram Micro are telling me the same thing which is March. Which means CDW Canada will probably have it out the door and in my hands by April. Which is fine I don’t need it until July so I can have them good to go for Sept.Liar.
I’ve tried they all let me get to the checkout then throw a message about how there is an error with one or more of my items and the shipping location. Then hey give me some story about special shipping restrictions and they can’t ship to Canada. So I am stuck waiting for the “proper” importers.Found them all on google shopping, try that for CA.
Sorry to hear that.. google the crap out of it with “Canada” and maybe you will get lucky.I’ve tried they all let me get to the checkout then throw a message about how there is an error with one or more of my items and the shipping location.

I’ve never really dealt with Memory Express, but I know Canada Computers pulls its stock again from Synnex and Ingram Micro. But I can call ME in Jan to see what they can do. I’m not going to fret too hard over a PC I don’t get to use, especially over Christmas.Canada:

This is absolute nonsense. Reviewers since the dawn of the industry have used CPU samples sent to them. This might shock you, but reviewers aren't going to spend nearly $6,000 on retail motherboards and CPU's to do a single article. Mainstream CPU's are one thing but HEDT is another bag. I use a mix of retail and sampled CPU's, and fully disclose which is which. The samples are generally identical silicon anyway. They are potentiall hand picked, but I've seen examples of retail CPU's clock better and engineering samples clock worse.
Yeah it takes days of testing and days more of video editing to put a good or even a bad review. Nobody is going to manage to do that for seconds after an NDA lifts often before a product actually launches. Otherwise if they did every tech channel would have a live video of their adventures in the tent camp in front of their local supplier waiting for the part to review. Then a play by play of the fights that break out when the 12 sites fight over the 4 units that actually arrived.This is absolute nonsense.

Lmao! I'd pay good money to see Jay no cents and tech Jesus go at it.. Then a play by play of the fights that break out when the 12 sites fight over the 4 units that actually arrived.
Tech Jesus LoLLmao! I'd pay good money to see Jay no cents and tech Jesus go at it.
Best nickname for a YTr I've heard xD Need more like that.Tech Jesus LoL
Thought I saw those radar dishes peaking out, should just get those things pinned back.Best nickname for a YTr I've heard xD Need more like that.
Apparently he's got sticky out ears hence the hair to cover it. Should just rock em loud and proud, can't imagine the hair being good for ESD when wandering around multiple PC's.
When you say “go at it” are you thinking ESPN or Pornhub..... cause I am sure that either option checks a few boxes.Lmao! I'd pay good money to see Jay no cents and tech Jesus go at it.
'Radar Dishes'!!! Oh man you got me laughing good there.Thought I saw those radar dishes peaking out, should just get those things pinned back.
Was thinking more ESPN. I forget this is [H], the latter didn't cross my mind but indeed could cater to the right folks xDWhen you say “go at it” are you thinking ESPN or Pornhub..... cause I am sure that either option checks a few boxes.

That's not what he meant if I'm reading it right. The Intel cpus do not exist anywhere outside of select reviewers.
