That's my worry. Got all my other parts waiting. Really don't want to miss out on this because of scummy scalpers again.
I know they don't normally care about CPUs. But they aren't normally as desirable as this.

Lots of 7800X3Ds about to hit the members market lol

Disappointed in the efficiently tbh the 7800X3D is the better purchase imo. I prefer quiet components. But also gaming average is erm so close it's not even with bothering with. https://www.techpowerup.com/review/amd-ryzen-7-9800x3d/20.html

7800X3D vs 9800X3D the power is doubled in most benchmarks lol

I'm beginning to wonder about their testing methodology
AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D Review - The Best Gaming Processor
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D establishes AMD as the leader in gaming performance. This Zen 5-based X3D chip is not only fast, it also comes with full support for overclocking. Besides gaming, application performance is considerably improved over the 7800X3D, but that comes at a price.

Like what?
It'll be available at 2pm tomorrow and will cost around £450. What more do you need to know?

Sounds like a great CPU
Absolutely pointless for 4k gaming though.

Is that confirmed? both the UK price and release time?

Depends what you're upgrading from. My 3700x has quite a few stutters in games at 4k. the 1% lows suck.
This will be a great upgrade for that alone, but then again so would a 7800x3d and would be cheaper. :/
Yeh, will be interesting. The 4090 was my first gpu that bottlenecks started to creep in at 4k with a last gen top cpu (5950x), nothing major but enough that the enthusiast in me had to upgrade to a 7950x3d at the time

I'd like them to tell me that, rather than you assuming based on previous?
Would have also liked to get a pre-order or whatever.

At my resolution (3440x1440) I don't see any reason still to upgrade from my 5800x3d considering a platform change is needed or is that just me ?
I think im better off putting money into a 5080/5090 upgrade ?

I've seen benchmarks where proper SAM helps with an XTX combo, reason I switched to a 7800X3D from my 13700k (plus it was a very good deal, didn't cost me much to switch over for a superior gaming chip).
Also nice to see AMD not to screw up a launch for a change

All signs so far is that OCUK won't have them for launch, it will be a pre order, unless something changes.

You'd probably gain more yes, but run the risk of being slightly cpu bottlenecked in some games (where they don't take advantage of the 3D cache for instance). Tough call.
