Good heads up on the heat factor. I’ve read where the Turbo Boost only reaches maximum in one core…whereas the max on the others is 3.8 to 4.2 even when using OC. There was a big article on the 3600 & 3600X about this on Tom’s Hardware. Seems the other higher tier models reached Turbo Max on all cores rather than just one core.
