AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D

"X3d turbo mode" I just a One click button that enables expo profile plus disables one ccd if it's a dual ccd chip and disable smt, Gigabyte says this gives best performance and you should only use this when gaming

This sounds pretty good if it can be turned on and off as needed in Windows (or whatever OS)

Isn't that what the scheduler is meant to do with no user input?

I'm glad I won't have to worry about it with the 9800x3D in any case.

Not sure why people are hyping themselves for this to be such a departure from the 7800X3D. At best you'll get a general 10% improvement imo, but nothing shocking beyond that. Even in terms of value it's not going to be great since it will simply be the best gaming CPU and that will command a premium. Certainly won't come close to the deals the 7800X3D had just a month or two ago, but alas those have dried up now. Plus when it comes to OCing Ryzen-anything it's been a copium since pretty much the Zen 1 days (and really it was the only Zen for which true OCing made any significant difference).

Benchmarks not gaming but still a good increase apparently.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 3D V-Cache CPU shows a significant increase in performance compared to previous models in new benchmark tests. In terms of performance, it comes close to the 9950X and the i7…

The Scheduler will direct the load to the CCD with the 3D Vcache if it detects that you're gaming.

So no turning off CPU features or whole CCDs or adjusting ram speed, voltage, timings.

7800X3D down to £399 I see.

Heading in the right direction.

Wonder if its in prep for Black Friday deals etc

 

[Hostile_18]

Any hints as to how much stock OCUK will get this time round? How long did it take the 7800x3D to sell out? If I remember correctly the OCUK price was pretty competitive!

 

[wookiee87]

I'll pick one up if I can

 

[Blackjack Davy]

I keep hearing the 9800X3D being the next amazing thing so I'm watching. I have a 3900X and I don't think it's old and over the hill but it is 5 years old. Need to keep my fingers in my pockets..

Honestly almost anything is going to seem night and day compared with that and I know I had one even moving to a 5900 was a good kick in the pants

I'm looking to pick one up, unless of course if I see a silly deal on a 7800x3d before I get my hands on the 9800x3d.

 

[Shaolin Chicken]

I am interested in buying one, but have a feeling they will be priced at £500 when launched, so will wait and see if they receive any price cuts after Christmas.

ha haa, I was ready to buy a few weeks back, waiting until 2025 for a few quid is too expensive for my will power reserve tokens.

 

[Hostile_18]

I'm going to go with £449 prediction. I think the 7800x3D was £429 here at launch IIRC.

That's not too bad a price, I think I would be tempted at that price, depending on performance.

Currently have a 5800X, I game at 3440x1440, so far the jump hasn't been big enough to upgrade. I think the 9800X3D may change that

I'm similar, but on a 5900X.
I'm hoping the x3d part alone will make quite a difference for the likes of us.

Thanks mate! that's exactly what I didn't want to hear

 

[Hostile_18]

I wonder if the 5090 will make more games CPU limited at high resolutions, or perhaps that's what I'm telling myself to help with this purchase!

 

[Vertigo]

Keeping an eye on it but I really don't think it'll be worth the upgrade from a 7800X3D

 

[Mr G]

Looking to change up from an 7600x to either a 7800X3D or 9800X3D. I have a feeling it's going to be a 7800X3D as I dare say the performance is going to be minor compared to the 9800X3D.

Fingers crossed for a sub £300 on a 7800X3D for BF.
