Yeah, you asked whether you should buy a 3950X or wait for a 4950X. Both are pointless for gaming, and are in diminshing returns territory because (at least in the case of the 3950X) you'd be looking at lower clock speeds because of the much larger core count. If you want to buy now, then I replied to your question in my previous reply. If you can wait, then wait and get a Zen 3 6 or 8-core part.
During my investigation, numerous sites indicated that the 4900x model would feature 14 cores with 28 threads, while the 4950x would offer 18 cores and 36 threads.
You haven't provided a clear question yet. Could you clarify what you're asking about the AMD 4950X?
