That trend continues into Blender. The extra speed of the stock Core i9-9980XE allows it to best the i9-7980XE, whilst the overclocked processors are much closer than their clock speeds might lead you to believe. It's worth noting that the 2990WX has twice the cores and threads of the Intel options but doesn't get twice the performance. The 24 cores of the 2970WX are also just enough to sneak ahead of the 18 core i9-9980XE, which shows how good each Intel core is relative to its Ryzen rival.

Those are insane temperatures. I mean, it's amazing that we've hit a temperature ceiling with something like a 360mm AIO at max fan speeds. It shows how Intel's CPUs scale with voltage and remain stable. But it feels like such a shame, like such an odd product.Quote

I've watched a couple of overview/reviews of the 9980xe and they all come to similar conclusions as the boss , if you really want intel 18 core your better off with the 7980xe if pushing the clocks is your objective . And at least you can de lid the older one if your brave

How is 68 degrees insane?
If you complain that is gets hot when you start OC'ing then you are missing the point here. This is not a product made for manual OC'ing.
It seems to run perfectly fine, when used as intended.Quote
