9950x3d and rtx 5090...
Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good!

I'm hoping reviewers include the 5800x3d in benchmarks. I highly doubt I was be motivated to update this round, but if the gap is big enough it might make sense to go ahead and put my old components up on ebay while they still have some value.

------

so, don't buy the part that's 11% faster by default, buy the part that's 3% slower by default and then buy a bunch of expensive cooling and ram to gain 10%?

Yes. As PCMR, it is the tuning that defines us.

Intel ST is still way faster. ST makes games fly. A tuned 13900K can beat 7800X3D in most games with at most 50W more heat.
Because Intel tuning ceiling is higher.

Surely though the point of 3d processors as well as the high frame rates is the 1% lows being so much better. Who cares about a few extra Intel frames at high energy consumption

Dual CCD gaming is shit.
I'm on a 7950X3D and when windows somehow manage to put game threads on both CCD i have stupid stutters. Real bad stutters depending on the game, worst being UE ofc.
So dual 3D cache won't change a thing in that, the latency between CCD will still be there and destroy 1% low.

Trust me i did a LOT of tweaking to have a proper and smooth experience with that CPU.
Now with 24H2 it's a bit better though. Almost 2 years after purchase.

Never purchase dual-ccd for gaming if you're not interested to do nerd optimization just to play games.

I got pro-tip, psst, get Intel 265K. It is all the gaming CPU you need. 8 higher perfomaning P-cores.

9800X3D cannot be cheaper than 265K, so AMD is already beat before launch.
Based on Intel's own benchmarks a 9700X should be just as fast in gaming.

Tuning is highly silicon lottery dependent, my 13900k crashes with any memory above 6800. Not a matter of temperature either, just luck of the draw.

True, you still have latency issues in terms of communicating between the two CCD’s but if instead of splitting render threads in a way that passes data back and forth a lot amongst them you assign it to”other” work now at least you can be sure they will complete it at around the same time before you had a massive speed difference based on where you ran any task.

Buildzoid, one of the best memory overclockers, has a 13900K that can barely reach 6000Mbts.
But has a 13600K that can go close to 8000.
It's called silicon lottery for this reason. So stop pretending it's an issue with the user, because it's not.

Spoken like somebody who doesn’t know what the term silicon lottery means.

Buildzoid is a noob in memory overclocking. He can give you general settings, that’s all. He dont spend enough time with ddr5

There are forums like ocn, chiphell, overclockers, discords, that are better With information

None of that matters if the memory controller on the CPU can’t cope with anything above 6800. Not all CPUs are created equal, Intel guarantees a certain level of performance and anything above that is luck. Most 13900k can reach 7200 or higher, mine is one of those that can not.

Looking like this whole generation of new CPU's is a bit of a bust from both AMD and Intel this time around.

No. What’s your motherboard? What’s your ram?

Buildzoid is fine for general information but he is not the enthusiastic about ram over clock

For instance this fellow has intel 285k, look at it’s minimum fps prowress

One of the green rats


Like I have two gaming pc now and one is my old 3700 with a 4070 super and it still the majority of new games in ultra 4k at 60 fps. My other is a 7700x with a 9700 xt. That runs those games 60 gps as well.


So my question is what games are these guys running that requires the newest / best bleeding edge cpu and gpu that I'm not running?

Buildzoid has got nothing to do with it. You can just end up with a mediocre memory controller that can’t take a lot of voltage and sucks for memory overclocking. It’s not super common but sometime you just end up with a bit of a dud.

lol. No! Tuning is a thing of the past. Current hardware doesnt require tuning anymore. I run all at default. I dont even use MSI Afterburner anymore. I just focus on gaming now, which is what really matters!!!

Not doubting what you are saying however I run a 5900x and many games that will run across both ccds and never have any bad sutters or spikes. Is this simply the cache issue ? Or something else.

Genuinely interested as I am building am5 early next year and need to decide between vcache or straight 12 cores. Been very happy with the 5900x over the last two years.

Wish we had a full fat 16 core ccx!

My buddy has a 7950x3d and my other friend has a 7700x. They were both getting the same framerate when we were playing tarkov and my fps was 20fps higher on my 7800x3d. Just silly to have to deal with all the scheduling BS.
