Very decent price for such a high-end CPU. Most sellers still offer it for well over $1000

agree. 3900x is awesome
(unless you have higher ram (>128gb) requirement or something weird)128gb not enough for me qq
Depends on what you're doing.
Gaming + streaming/transcoding/etc get the 3900x.
Metric ton of PCIE I/O and RAM capacity for workstation level projects get the 2920X.

It had a better price before.
$405 on Amazon prime day last year (I missed the deal)

And I bought it about $600 around October.https://www.mwave.com.au/product/amd-ryzen-9-3900x-12-core-s…
I don't see any reason why not going for 3900x?
It only makes sense if you're already bought into the TR4 chipset, or if you need the additional PCIe lanes.
PCIe 4.0 on 3900x which is same as doubling the lane counts is quite nice though
Doubling the bandwidth is not equivalent to having more PCIe lanes.
@Diji1: Not quite the same, but effectively achieves same thing for most consumers in this price bracket
Threadripper if you want full pci express bus from motherboard, like 3-4 gpus etc
Great deal, been waiting for another a drop so I can SLI two of these on my dual cpu mb.
Just get a 3900x
