The editors didn't like
Nothing of note
The 3700X might be just as good based on your usage
Not a true replacement for HEDT if you need the additional PCI-E or Memory lanes
No cooler included
Not every software application can makes use of all 16 cores
Needs extra cooling
Limited gaming advantage
Not as strong value as some of the other Ryzen 3000 offerings
Extra PCIe lanes and quad-channel memory can benefit HEDT competitors
