You know just because you think it to be so, it doesn't make it true...Here's the thing: average person doesn't need a rendering workstation. This is a CPU for a... hard to define group of PC users (even if it was performing like a 16-core should). The amount of focus it gets on the internet is just weird...
We're getting second generation of a CPU that everyone talks about but no one buys... but where are AMD-powered high-end notebooks?
If you check the sales over at Mindfactory, which are a very good approximation of what is going on across the EU, you'll find that the 19xx Threadrippers have sold 2.5 times more CPUs than Intel's Core i9.
As for the US, the other day Amazon did a sale of 1950X where all their inventory disappeared in the matter of hours.
Give people good and cheap tech - they buy it. They may not NEED it per se, but since when has that stopped any smartphone user?
