Strengths:
I paid $383 for this after price matching CC. Needless to say, after picking a board up and ram from these guys - the chip chews through Adobe Premiere, Blender, and other software I throw at it. And it also was a step up in gaming wise too.
Weaknesses:
It's super hot. Needs a good cooler to tame it
Additional Comments:
It's definitely a good CPU still. For the price I paid for it, the value was unbeatable and currently using this chip for my ITX build (which is almost finished!).

Strengths:
Early adopted this. Holy fast! A few months earlier I bought a threadripper 3960x. From a regular use standpoint and even multitasking this thing is faster on a different level. Maybe the ram at DDR5 vs DDr4. The TR has a raid 0 (2 samsung 980 pros) and this system only one 980 and still way faster. I dont OC but havent gotten it over 72 deg C.
Weaknesses:
Still hard to find compatible parts in stock after months in circulation.
Additional Comments:
Intel is back. Bang for the buck you cant lose.
