China reviewer goes first


And it is a bomba, what happened Intel?

Games and application struggled against 14900K

DDR5-9200 still have terrible 94ns latency in aida64

The title is confusing with "core ultra 9 7 5"
It should be 9/7/5.

And the reviews are looking even worse than Intel led us to believe.

Wow some brutal reviews. Absolutely terrible showing from Intel. Amd x3D is definitely going to hold the performance crown I guess lol

There is something really wrong with these CPUs.
They are using a process node that is much more advanced than Zen5 and despite this, it uses double the power of a 7800X3D. While gaming.
It's like going back in time, to the era of the Athlon 64 vs Pentium 4.

Something wrong with Cinebench 2024. Because in other Cinebench 285 didn't win
That also ST perfomance

You know, I used to really defend hub against the accusation of being biased against AMD. But in his AMD is Zen 5 reviews he shat all over them for efficiency improvements for the same performance or 5% gains and he seems to almost be praising Intel for efficiency improvements and performance loss. It's kind of obvious that he just seems to have a dislike of AMD

The fact that intel didn't even feel the need to delay this with all the instability issues reviewers and board manufacturers seemingly had baffles me. I mean there must've been someone out there telling intel reps that shit isn't good right now.

GerAlt-Right. Ciriously.
In terms of baseball, this is at best a walk for Intel, meaning they got on base or could be a strikeout.

AMD did everything in their power to make this a successful launch for Intel…and they still blew it.

I think their bias is actually to be much tougher on the company that's in the lead. So they used to try to extol the virtues of AMD when they were behind in both CPU and GPU, but now that they're actually beating intel up they want to try to give intel a fighting chance. Even though their opinions are whatever, the data is not though. This is a worse showing for chiplet architecture than rdna3 was.
