You're right about that. Just stating the obvious here

3600XT $250 RM1200
3800XT $400 RM1900
vs
5600X $300 RM?
5800X $450 RM?

I think the 5000 series will be quite expensive.

If the 5600XT sells at RM1400, then the current 3600 is still the king of mid-range at half the price, great for pairing with GPU from RTX 3070 down to 1660 Super.

Not sure about 5950X but don't forget that the XT prices...
3600XT $250 RM1200
3800XT $400 RM1900

I remember 2700X was around RM1.5k mark right? The 3700X is cheaper at launch.

Any idea which model is available in Shopee or Lazada?

Like brand and model.
I don't see any FlareX anymore.

It's a mess trying to find specific RAM in Shopee and Lazada, I'm hoping to get Brand and model recommendation to narrow down the search. The seller don't list single/dual rank/b-die/micron rev. b right.

The expensive G.Skill kit is saw doesn't have great timing, like normal 3600MTS CL18 but cost a bomb.

I got those from Taiwan too, together with X470i, damn expensive...

32GB RAM with good timing.
Otherwise I'll just settle with a cheap Corsair LPX 3600 CL18.

Thanks for the extensive list. I try putting those codes into Shopee and Lazada they don't come up with anything. I also tried searching for "3600 C16" and still get result for 3600CL18. I blame the both site for not having better filter for these sort of stuff.

I agree, I'm going to wait for a 5700X with maybe 100-200mhz slower.

If someone needed 12 cores for things they do today, then yes you are right. For the rest of the people... no.

Even a "slow" 3600 is already quite smooth and is already like "European car". It can handle multi-monitor too, no problem, no need a 12 cores or even a 8 cores. Actually the 3100 can do multimonitor as good as the 16 cores in 2D environment.

1) The 3600 is still the value king until AMD release a $200 Zen 3 6-core CPU.
2) This I agree, since money no object.
3) Waiting for real word benchmark, because currently overclocked Intel i9-10900K still holds the crown.
4) This might actually be viable if someone wanted "future proof" while offsetting just enough money to buy a better GPU, simply because next gen console are 8-cores. Damn that's still a lot of money for a 8-cores!

Yep, that's quite close from my estimate. RM200 more from both 3600XT and 3800XT. I hope MSRP isn't as crazy as those XT prices.

He thought you're editing 4k 12bit RAW or 8k RED footage

Intel i5-10600K & i7-10700K paired to Z490 motherboard will cost almost the same as AMD Ryzen 5600X & 5800X paired with B450 motherboard. Excuse me, can't get enough of speculating it lol.

3200mhz RAM won't be a bottleneck for PCIE 4.0. Still the 16GB 3600Mhz C18 LPX is like only RM40 more expensive than the 3200MHz C16 counterpart, I don't see why don't just go for the higher speed. The difference is not as extreme as 3200MHz C16 vs C14.

Idealtech pricing is not reasonable, but that's not their fault for pricing it that high if AMD Malaysia put the MSRP that high. I really wished for a cheaper price Zen 3 come 5th November, but look at how they priced the 3600XT and 3800XT...

Yeah, no one will buy a brand new 3600X/XT, 3800X/XT, 3900X/XT and 3950X when the new 5000 drops. The only chips which can sell are 3600 and 3700X because they are still cheap in terms of price/core.

Thanks! Whoa so expensive, as if they are offsetting the cheaper motherboard price compared the Intel Z490 offerings.
It's really:
i5-10600K + Z490 vs Ryzen 5 5600X + B550
i7-10700K + Z490 vs Ryzen 7 5800X + B550

Yeah, the price for 6800XT going to be brutal for Malaysian!
Maybe Intel can unlock RAM speed for a start on their B460 chipset.

Quite interested to find out the real world performance difference on the 8+0 CCD (5800X) vs 6+6 (5900X).

The 3300X (4+0) is faster than the 3500X (3+3) in certain workload (gaming etc) because of the CCX arrangement. Since Zen3 is arrange differently, I'm really curious to see the real world bench for it.
