I'm hoping that there's a premium SKU for 8C/16T, ideally monolithic in full. I want lower latency, max clock/IPC, without the better dies being binned entirely up to behemoth multi chiplet SKUs.
From experiencing my TR2920x vs 3700X vs 2700X, along with a stupid iMac Pro Xeon, I've come to the conclusion that I really don't need more cores. 8 is even overkill a lot of the time, though 6 feels bare minimum now. But I'd choose 5Ghz all-core 8C almost every time vs 4.5Ghz of even 64 cores or more.
I'm not saying that I wouldn't mind seeing 24C/32C Zen3 AM4+ SKUs, should that come to pass. Just want better 8C (or higher monolithic options). Something good could replace my 3700X and 9900KS into a one box solution. 2920X is being gifted off, it is a bad fit for my uses.
