Yeah but I still don't understand the market for them. They drop in July and 2 months later is Zen 3, idk why you would buy one unless in a pickle and can't wait and you at least have the option to upgrade to Zen 3 with the same board.

Is zen 3 coming in September? I feel like the graphic cards are coming in September based on latest stuff and the zen 3 chips themselves may launch later like October or November. Would be a lot to launch big navi and zen 3 in the same month.

I mean these are just basically to give the finger to intel and if priced right certainly are worth the buy without knowing what zen 3 chips will cost/be until those come. In the end it's not really costing AMD to launch these chips as they are just better binned zen 2 parts basically which over time their yields have matured so they can clock the stuff a little higher now than launch last year. So basically why not stack the products somewhat like this, although this is more my dream of actual pricing.

3600 - $160 (right now Microcenter)
3600X - $200 (right now Microcenter)
3600XT - $220-$250 estimate
3700X - $270 (right now Microcenter)
3800X - $310 (right now Microcenter)
3800XT - $330-$350 estimate
3900X - $390 (right now Microcenter)
3900XT - $430-$450 estimate
3950X - $700 (right now Microcenter)
