Fully unlocked sounds awesome, can't wait for the 9950X3D

This with a minor (ish) bump in perf over the 7800x3d is enough to justify its existence, perhaps not so much if it ends up being ~ £480 !Fully unlocked sounds awesome,
All "official" AMD gents.
Unlocked for Overclocking "Yes".
FTFY.RRP is $479 which will be £550 in the UK. I think I made the right move with my £280 Ryzen 7 7800X3D.
FTFY.
I don't think OCUK will go from £430 7800x3d launch to +£500 myself. We shall see. If it's more than £500 I'm out! Lol.
You can get a 7800x3D for £390 or a 7950x for around £480.
7800X3D was available for under £350 and a few times under £300. £450 would be the current price of the 9800X3D at today's exchange rate. So unless the exchange rate collapses,anything more than £10 to £20 is an early adopter tax.
Is that including 20% VAT We have to pay?
Yes,if you convert from the $479 RRP.
AMD know they hit the jackpot with x3d hence the price bump.
It's good but they are still competing with their own products. I don't feel like they can go too crazy with the price for +8% (and more than likely at 1080p).
That slide comparing against intel is brutal.
Stop it AMD, they're already dead
My take is that you could have got almost the same level of performance as a 9800X3D for nearly £200 less 6 months ago, unfortunately that ship has now sailed and those of us who waited are now stuck with higher prices.285k is on suicide watch, that slide was nuts lol - showing the 9800x3d being over 60% faster than the 285k in cyberpunk

Possibly although clock speed was never the main factor of these Vcache CPUs for performance improvements.If we can overclock 5.5-5.7ghz that should make a big difference between the two CPUs shouldn't it?
