The AMD 3rd Gen Ryzen Deep Dive Review: 3700X and 3900X Raising The Bar
by Andrei Frumusanu & Gavin Bonshor on July 7, 2019 9:00 AM EST** = Old results marked were performed with the original BIOS & boost behaviour as published on 7/7.
Gaming: F1 2018
Aside from keeping up-to-date on the Formula One world, F1 2017 added HDR support, which F1 2018 has maintained; otherwise, we should see any newer versions of Codemasters' EGO engine find its way into F1. Graphically demanding in its own right, F1 2018 keeps a useful racing-type graphics workload in our benchmarks.
Aside from keeping up-to-date on the Formula One world, F1 2017 added HDR support, which F1 2018 has maintained. We use the in-game benchmark, set to run on the Montreal track in the wet, driving as Lewis Hamilton from last place on the grid. Data is taken over a one-lap race.

Well, tests of the new AMD card show near no difference for PCIe 4, so no point yet.0ldman79 - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
I'm not done yet, but you guys have done an excellent job so far.The only differences I can spot are just in how both of you phrase things, quality is excellent as always.

DPhil awarded from Oxford in Computation Chemistry in 2011. (Oxford call it a DPhil, but it is the old term for a Ph.D.)mikato - Thursday, July 11, 2019 - link
I read that as Dr Phil at first. So to be clear, you do not have a Dr Phil degree. I’m not sure what that would be, but I know it would be terrible.XsjadoKoncept - Sunday, July 21, 2019 - link

Hope all is well for the good Dr. Cutress!Oxford Guy - Sunday, July 7, 2019 - link
Yes, like all the results that include the performance regressions on Intel from actually dealing with reality.Reality is that they exist and need to be patched, not ignored.
That includes turning off hyperthreading.

"Dr Ian Cutress as he unfortunately the timing didn’t work out"I bet he just don't want to risk his reputation.
