To ED.
We should be happy that we've had a review at all. Very few test resources care enough to test AMD stuff properly. Same goes to motherboard and laptop manufacturers. Intel platform? OK, this is our new state of the art design with many phases/good heatsinks/well thought out cooling. AMD platform? Here you are, we just quickly arranged some phases/heatpipes in random order/1 RAM slot/a TN panel. "Fanboys" will swallow it anyway.

Silly review comparing a 12 core CPU on single core activities and leaving out multitasking comparison graphs. For single core activities one buys Ryzens. Is this bias due to Notebookcheck or to the specific reviewer?

To ashlol. One word: workloads. It's not meant for gamers. The gamers among the sane two thirds of the AMD fanbase don't actually propagate Threadrippers as gaming beasts (and at this moment they're not unless you disable some cores). Fans admire them as a technological achievement for AMD and an affordable workhorse for manycore-optimised workloads.

This review is completely irrelevant because it is comparing a zen+ CPU which is one year old design with the just released i9, especially if you consider that in one month AMD is releasing the zen-2 CPUs up to 16 cores that they will completely destroy the i9 and will be cheaper!

To be fair you should have compared the zen+ with an older i7-i9 X-series but then again who cares since in one month you'll get so much better zen-2 CPUs

I don't really see why you recommend this AMD over the intel 9900K as the intel does everything better than the 2920X use less power and is cheaper where's the catch ?
Only 8 cores ? I don't see the problem since they are performing better than 12.
