Reliable and fast
Been using this 3970x for over 4 months. Using Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 air cooler with 2 fans and it is rare that temps get above 81 C, generally low 70's for most of my work. I do a ton of CAD, meshing, and CFD with this working away sometimes for several days 24/7 and it has never skipped a beat. The build it is in has been workstation reliable. Compared to an Epyc, these new Threadrippers clock higher, but they lack L3 cache to some Epyc versions, and of course, 256 GB RAM is about it whereas Epyc's have motherboards that can take between 1 and 2 TB, which is a necessity for some types of engineering codes like CFD of large models. However, it's still hard to beat the workstation-like reliability and processing power that these new Threadrippers have, provided the memory and cache aren't limiting factors.

5.0 out of 5 stars AMD Ryzen Master to unleash the full potential
Reviewed in Germany on May 16, 2020
Important note for any user of this cpu: You have to use AMD Ryzen Master to set the CPU up for the right tasks. If youre in creator mode, there are massive FPS drops in games, due to driver issues with Nvidia atm. You have to use Game Mode for that. See the pictures how it effects the performance. (3D Mark Benchmarks in Game and Creator Mode)

Since games only use up to 8 cores anyway, this is a minor issue. Just a klick and a restart.

Beside that, this CPU is a MONSTER. Codename: Starship

Nothing more to say.
