planning on spending quite a bit of time overclocking gpu, cpu, and ram (kind of an overclocking fanatic) im getting the water cooled hybrid version from evga and planning on watercooling my cpu with a 360mm rad (i know a little overkill but its mainly for aesthetics) so thermals should be nice and good. planning on installing16gb of 3200mhz 16cas ram.

Do you mean Ryzen 7 3800x or 2700x?

with zero load on any component and no specific requirement

no there wouldn't be a bottleneck of any form

specifically gaming, 3d modeling, and code crunching

It can on occasion but nothing to be worried about.

 

I wouldn't consider the 3800X personally, either the 9900K or 3900X really... since the cheaper 3700X is pretty much the same thing you're spending more for virtually nothing.

sorry wont go intel no matter how much anyone bugs me about it, always have been an amd fan always will. i get your point about buying a 3700x because of the minuscule performance increase but i can get them at a 2$ difference and i mean 2% for 2$ i might as well  

just looked at power consumption and might go with the r9 3900x it uses 40 watts more

gonna try and keep this simple, 1080p, there will be a small bottleneck in some titles, other than that it's nothing to worry about, that's assuming you get cl16 3600 ram and further optimize your timings, u'd be within 5% of a 9900k on most games.

 

highly recommend this over the other stuff for the small price diff

Can't you just turn that off? 

 

Also I'm pretty sure I saw a RAM "OC comparison" from the same person and the Trident NEO where pretty much constantly under the worst (still good mind you but worse than others) 

 

And umm corsair Vengeance lpx are pretty cheap?  no RGB and OC better . 

 

Not sure about timings but apparently that can be changed.   

 

Edit: damn,  I can't find the video... I don't think it's the same as above.  It was more a motherboard comparison than RAM, but was definitely interesting. 

 

Anyway aren't the Vengeance LPX basically the same?  Or is it really that the RGB variants are faster?

the vengeance lpx didnt have 3600mhz and no rgb is aethstetic but i did find g-skill ripjaws memory that was cheaper and same specs

Yeah that is why I went with the 3800x as well. It hasn't ben a popular CPU due to the facts it really isn't much better than a 3700x so they have been marked down substantially for the Christmas sales.  Got mine for the exact same price as the 3700x plus I get two games instead of one making the 3800x a much better value, but only if you can get it on sale. 

 

As far as the 3900x, I personally can't justify $200 additional for the performance gain it offers.  I guess if I was doing a lot of video editing, streaming, etc., I might see more value in it but for gaming, it offers less than a 5% increase in performance for nearly 160% of the price of a 3700x/3800x (on sale).

more cores and more threads, i plan on doing a little bit of cad and 3d modeling which will make the extra cores and threads worth it
