If your first question about these chips is if you should replace your original X version with an XT then the answer is the same as if you were thinking of replacing your Core i9-9900K with the KS version, which is to say a resounding no. The Ryzen 3600XT,3800XT and 3900XT are a refinement of the original Xen 2 chips, as opposed to a new family from AMD and were to launch at the same MSRP the originals did.
The chips offer a slight bump in frequency and are rated for the same small increase in power usage, however TechSpot’s testing showed that apart from the 3900XT which is actually a little more power efficient than the original, the other two slurped up a hair more power.
