AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3D Cache Eight Core 4.5GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail - Go Go Go xD

That is impressive but before you get too excited note that the 12700K gets up to half of power consumption of the KS models listed in that graph. ;)

Shock horror that CPU clocked to the max has high power consumption. :p
Still almost twice the power consumption of the X3D though. :p
 
This is 720p. Ideally you should test also with dlss ultra performance (but they didn't since it's RX 6900XT) & make sure crowd density is on high. Also scene matters a lot, I recommend Corpo Plaza (between 9am to 8pm) where the giant Koi hologram is.

You can see how stressful it is for CPU:

This is an in game map of the city? I don't remember that...

No, I got that from elsewhere. Probably moddable tho.

 
You have the 3d? Can you test the ingame FC6 bench 720p / ultra at 25w? I wanna see how good the 3d really is at gaming efficiency. Ill share some numbers with my 12900k at same wattage.
Don't have it downloaded right now, but I do have a saved benchmark from launch, 1080P Low settings pre-set with HQ textures off, stock 5800X3D with 3200CL14 14-14-14-26-40-T2 geardown disabled, SMT On, -30 curve optimiser, 45-50W CPU power if that's any good to you.

Usually I test with everything ultra + RT on low res but sure, that's fine. Are you completely CPU bound on the whole run, did you check?
 
I just don't see the point when it's gonna lose performance over stock to prove what ??? Is the 25w what you use for everyday use ?

Why dont you run it at stock and try to match that with tuning lowering power while at least matching stock performance
As a matter of fact, yes, I was playing FC6 limited at 25w. The reason was, someone asked me if it can even boot at that low wattage, so I tried to play FC6 and I realised that at the actual settings im playing im GPU bound even at 25w. So I just left it there for a couple of hours playing ;)
 
Anyone know what motherboard's are able to undervolt the 5800X3D, I know some of the Asus boards allow PPT control but I don't know about others
Not sure, Dark Hero can’t. @varkanoid 's board might.

It does not matter though as you can use PBOTuner on any board to do it in Windows.

You can also set it up to auto run at boot up in the background for convenience.

I installed the 5800X3D and put the ram to XMP 3600mhz CL16. For gaming and general use should I bother with tuning it back to 3800mhz and tightening the timings? I hear it makes little difference to gaming, not sure about general use.

I spent most of my day yesterday messing about with ram on my 5800x3d.

I went 3200 CL14/3600CL16/3800CL16 and everything in between those. Aida preferred the 3200CL14, 3dmark and my own games showed no difference.

I even went down to 1080p on my 6950xt to find a difference. Nope, the 3d chip literally don't give a damn what ram you use. Quite remarkable.

Agree with Warsul. However if it is stable I would push your memory frequency as higher as it will go and the latency as low as it will go, so long as it is stable.
 
Still trying to find a motherboard that gives access to and respects the PPT setting in the bios for the 5800X3D ( a sudo eco mode basically )
Use PBOTuner2 it will let you reduce those values in Windows, though not really worth it when you can use curve optimiser to reduce power draw to like 45W under gaming load.
 
Yeah the goal is to keep a silent system and I found that to maintain my cooling noise level the power draw would be more in the 75W range than the 105W range basically
