Update: AMD Ryzen 9 4950X / 5950X 16C/32T Zen 3 Vermeer's boost clock may touch the 5 GHz mark; AMD could skip 4000 series naming for desktop

https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Ryzen-9-4950X-5950X-16C-32T-Zen-3-Vermeer-s-boost-clock-may-touch-the-5-GHz-mark-AMD-could-skip-4000-series-naming-for-desktop.483975.0.html

The new leak/rumor says that it can reach up to 4.9GHz https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-16-core-zen3-ryzen-9-4950x-engineering-sample-boosts-up-to-4-9-ghz

Maybe AMD will manage to make it reach 5GHz by launch.

What I find even more impressive is that the base clock went up compared to the previous leaked chip by 200 Mhz. 16c/32t at 3.7 Ghz base is already 200Mhz higher than on the 3950X, and those are still just ES, so that clock speed might go even higher

By now I'm expecting 3.9/5.1 Ghz for the 4950X, obliterating any Comet lake and Rocket lake in it's path.
