So the 3000G is basically a CS:GO cruncher on a budget 👍 Also it's good they're taking their time with the 3950X cause imho distant but realistic deadlines > watery "soon™" > short but unfulfilled deadline. Sadly AMD seems to have been thru all 3 stages at this point...
Not so sure about that, I would've probably upgraded to 3950X if it was there on the initial launch day, but now it feels it makes more sense to wait for Ryzen 4000/Zen 3 - it's only another 6 months. I upgraded from 2700X to a 3700X to tie me over in the meantime
It'll probably be more like 10 months as Ryzen release dates have been slipping back a bit with each new generation. I would expect Ryzen 4000 to be available mid to late Q3 2020.
I’m sort of wishing they announced a full line, even if they are only launching two in November. I have no idea if I want to wait and see what else is coming or buy now.
$55 --> $49 with slight performance boost? now can I please get any microitx board to make this most powerful smart tv? I wonder why we cannot get super small am4 boards for so long?
There are ITX boards out there for Ryzen, but considering that the processors themselves have tended to be more powerful, putting them into a small system can be problematic. The new 7nm processors solve some of those problems, though I wish AMD would have released 7nm APUs by now.

A slight increase in price doesn't make it Intel. You also have to consider the included features like PCI 4.0 and a monstrous amount of lanes.Compare that to Intel, which increased prices while providing the same core count, feature set, and extremely small IPC increases.
