AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D retail processor has been tested ahead of launch

[Destination]

Quite impressive for what it is aimed to do.
1440p gaming crown from those tests, damn close at other res.
Certainly vastly more efficient than those around it.
I'll stick with my 5900, but might have considered this if purchasing afresh.

I can't see why anyone would bother. Unless upgrading from an older Ryzen. Think I will go 5900 or 5950 instead.

 

[stooeh]

Some decent boosts there but I would have liked to see some 3800 CL14 tests.

Looks to be a successful product great to see it match the 12900K!

AM4 users have some options.

impressive way to go out , on 6 year old socket while intel is pushing clocks and power draw higher than before to eke out the last bits of performance and AMD doing it in another way wonder what the 5900x3d would have been with performance thats the first one they showed when started talking about cache stacking

 

[Kirby Wurm]

Save the money for Zen 4 or a newer GPU, 5900X > 5800X3D is a sidegrade for any real world gaming scenario.

You're spot on of course, need to shake the itch though!

Looking at the TPU review that's mightily impressive stuff from this chip, especially as they ran the 12900K with good DDR5.

Disappointing early results, though need to wait for the official reviews to make any conclusions really. Also very interested in seeing gaming results.

so I think its pretty impressive Dave , just refresh chip on 6 year old socket while intel need to pump in more power

 

[uscool]

It's a stop gap cpu, will be a flop imo.

imo great option for people with ryzen 3000 series cpu that want gaming boost , just pop in upgrade

 

[ChocAndGray]

Well 3d Cache has actually turned out to be more than a gimmick. I wonder when we'll see it on more powerful processors....

 

[cliffy]

SO by looking at the Tech PowerUp review teh 5800X3d is up to 1Ghz slower, aprrox £300 cheaper and about 0.06% faster than teh KS. Whiel also consuming less power and running on a 6 year old socket that is a much cheaper platform. Based on this AMD sending AM4 out with a bang

 

[humbug]

The difference in clock speed is nuts, normally in games the 5800X runs about 4.8Ghz but screenshots out there suggests the 5800X3D is only running at about 4.5Ghz, that compared to 5.5Ghz for the 12900KS which is no faster and cooking its self.

That IPC difference is 22%, and the 5800X3D is running on slow cheap RAM while the 12900KS is running on expensive fast RAM, its almost has if TPU did everything they could to hold back the wild stallions that live under that Ryzen Heat Spreader....... impressive stuff.

Role on Zen 4

 

[uscool]

Imagine when they start adding higher / boosting clocks, looking forward to zen 4

I could see this powering my X570 board for years to come. Gaming is the most taxing thing I do, so ideal.

And its also 50% more expensive than the 12700f while being only 2% faster in games and getting demolished in everything else. Lol, yeah, great cpu

The 12900KS is £200 more expensive than the 12900K.

This nonsense of paying a more for a "Gaming Focused CPU" was started years ago by Intel, if you don't like it you should have started complaining when Intel started it, not just now that AMD are doing it.

 

[RavenXXX2]

Yes, but the CPU can't run DDR4-3800 at 1:1, max FCLK is 1866 MHz

And it can't run higher than 1866 FCLK so very limited ram speeds.

Could just be that sample. I asked Wizzard and he said he doesn't know if it is X3D or just a dud sample.

But the 12900ks, although obviously has a stupid price, is faster in EVERYTHING compared to the 12900k. The 5800x 3d loses in 99% of scenarios, is 4-5% ahead in 720p games and costs 50% more. I don't understand how you dont find this absurd. Yes, if you have an am4 mobo already its an okayish choice maybe, but nothing to write home about. I mean 450euros is just outrageous when it gets creamed by the non 3d 5800x,let alone what the 12700f does to it.

 

[humbug]

Its the wrong question to ask, 16-20-20 are incredibly lose timings and that matters more than the clock speed, my 32GB kit was £90 and i can get timing tighter that that at those speeds. Its some seriously #### RAM he's running on that 5800X3D.

That's not a rebuttal, its just straw clutching.
