This poll doesn't make sense. You are comparing two different CPUs with completely different core counts. Everyone knows that the 2990WX beats the i9 overall and especially in multicore tasks. 

 

However, they are in a similar price range and the TR beats the i9 hands down.

Depends on the Workload.
If you don't have massively parallel Workloads, then the normal Ryzen is for you.

 

If you have massively Parallel Workloads, then there is no question and the more cores gives you more benefit than higher clock can. Also the higher efficiency and staying inside the TDP specification is also a plus.

 

And there is also the issue of the shitty heat transfer from the Die to the IHS as well, wich is an enormous reason to avoid this CPU at all cost!
Only if you do NOT buy bad products you show the company selling it, that you don't want that shit and that they have to make better products...
