AMD Zen 5 rumours

[Grim5]

AMD has confirmed what we all suspected; ryzen 9000 CPUs are slower in games than Ryzen 7000x3d. AMD says you have to wait for 9000x3d to see improvements

AMD's Ryzen 9000 won't beat the previous-gen X3D models in gaming, but they'll be close — improved 3D V-Cache coming, too

Ryzen 9000's 3D V-Cache will get new features.

I agree it's stupid

Most people who buy this stuff are gamers give us what we want

At the bare minimum they should have given us the 9950x3d. Take your time on the rest but give us your best gaming chip at launch

Most people aren’t interested in X3D. Its a niche product within a limited market.

Then Who buys all the desktop consumer CPUs? Because for a long time the best selling Ryzen on the market was the 5800x3d, even well after Ryzen 7000 was out the 5800x3d was the best seller at every store

 

[Grim5]

Ryzen X3D will be a fraction of AMD sales.

Not true, ask any store 5800x3d and 7800x3d are top sellers

12 core zen5 is faster than 16 core zen4
while running at lower clocks and with just a 16% higher IPC in Cinebench as declared by AMD?

Seems highly suspicious

9700x TDP going back up again, from 65w to 120w

Looks like amd finally realised I was right and moving to 65w is a stupid move
