AMD's Threadripper 1920X 12-core CPU is now cheaper than ever, but the question is whether it's worth it, at this point, when compared to newer options like the R5 3600. Sponsor: Buy Thermaltake's C360 Kit on Amazon (https://geni.us/LWNv5AW) Article: https://www.gamersnexus.net/hwreviews/3527-amd-threadripper-1920x-benchmark-in-2019 Buy the AMD R5 3600 on Amazon: https://geni.us/XMMNrW Buy the AMD Threadripper 1920X on Amazon: https://geni.us/lIWjwRY Buy Intel's i9-9900K on Amazon: https://geni.us/den4 The AMD Threadripper 1920X CPU is a 12-core part that launched alongside the first generation of Ryzen parts, with MSRP at around $800. Pricing has since dropped to about $200, and our goal was to determine whether -- now at price parity with the R5 3600 -- the 1920X still holds value. You get extra memory channels and more cores and threads, but that's not meaningful in all applications. A lot of the viability of the 1920X in 2019 will depend on what your use cases are, and if a specific need isn't already in mind, it may not be a good fit. Still, there are some benchmarks in our revisit / review where it may prove a good value.
