I love AMD, but I fear the 3000 series id getting way overhyped. The Matisse leak was actually an Epyc, not a Ryzen chip, and thus hard to predict if even the 12 core count is correct.

The L9x65 does great, but it's just certified for 95W and has not much reserves for more than that, which might get problematic with your aforementioned 4Ghz Ryzen, hence why I posted the other 2 alternatives. But like I said, might.

Because I have a system that should see big gains with the RTX 2060 I guess I can just grab that now and wait & see on the 3000 series...

Isn't the 2600 a 65W part?

Yeah, and I thought boost clock was actually a bit lower than 3.9Ghz (I thought 3.6Ghz, but that was 1600, not the 2600. My bad.). between 3.9 and 4Ghz, there shouldn't be much of a problem, so the L9x65 shouldn't pose a problem after all.
