My wife offered to take ANY interim system I build, including a Ryzen 3900X, as her new system. T

Every man should find such a wife as that.

After 3. Nf3, there is a better defense for black than Qxg4 which is Qd8. So the more realistic plan is: r1b2rk1/pp3ppp/1n2p3/3pP3/2P2B2/b1PB1qP1/P1Q1NP1P/1K1R3R w - - bm Nd4; acd 50; ce 413; pv Nd4 Qh5 g4 Qh4 Nf3 Qd8 Bxh7+ Kh8 c5 Bxc5 Ng5 Nc4 Ka1 Ba3 Rb1 Nxe5 Bg8 f5 Bxe6 Be7 Bxe5 Bxg5 gxf5 Bxe6 fxe...

The right score for this position with the right plan is about +900 at depth 40

AnandTech included SPECint2017 benchmarks, which include Deep Sjeng:

The results were...surprisingly bad, i.e. clearly worse than Intel cores. I wonder why.

I guess they compiled for BMI, but SSE3 builds will be 25% faster.
