Anyone else annoyed they are announcing this a month in advance of being able to buy it? It is just a prerecorded video, its not like they booked an aircraft carrier a year in advance for the launch party. They could have released the video on October 28th or even November 4th.

Looks very promising, but I'll wait for the more serious reviews. If it turns out good enough and asrock decides to support the 5900X on my b450 motherboard, I'm definitely getting one to replace the 2700X that's in my current computer. It's a bit unfortunate they didn't share more architecture data, I really want to know what's been changed from zen2.

The main advantage of Zen 3 compared to Zen 2 is (presumably) higher number of int/float units and increased number of loads/stores per clock - which by definition implies that Zen 3 can (presumably) internally sustain to move more bits per clock than Zen 2 in its cores&caches.

So. Let us recap.
Intel has been ***rape:ing the entire industry for decades with their gouging price-models.
And when a competitor that _actually_ is doing an amazing job of kicking their asses... you decide to complain?
Hell no. I'll happily pay a $50 AMD tax over getting that perpetual ***rape from Intel.
Balance. Karma. Call it whatever you want.
