how come 3700x so 'hot'/popular ah?

Because it comes with a decent/competent cooler, Wraith Prism.

If you want it to be cooler, you'll need a larger air-cooler like NH-D15 or a liquid cooler.


Serious answer: Because we are getting a "tick" and a "tock" in the same generation of processor.

Ryzen 3000 series lithography goes from 14nm to 7 nm and also has a new architecture (chipsets) which improved 15% IPC.

Lastly, the 3700x runs a little higher clocks than 2700x but at a lower TDP, 65W vs 105W.

In USD. But still, cheaper than the other vendor. And with much lesser vulnerabilities

And congratulations to Dr Lisa Su being recognized as the best CEO in 2019.

In fact she turned around the company and saved a lot of fans and especially even more non fans wallet
