No bad product only bad prices.
If the to be released 9700X is slower than 7800X3D, it better be cheaper as well.

If all you get from a 9950X is a 16% uplift over 7950X, time to adjust flagship pricing

The 9709X will be faster for less power use.

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

For anyone looking to upgrade before the new boards come out then this is a good way to compare board features.

We would still be on quad cores, if it was just left to Intel.
Yes but its AMD which has stagnated the last few years.

AMD
1600X 6 core
2600X 6 core
3600X 6 core
5600X 6 core
7600X 6 core
9600X 6 core

Intel
7600k 4 core
8600k 6 core
9600k 6 core
10600k 6 core
11600k 6 core
12600k 10 core
13600k 14 core
14600k 14 core

Stagnation is not how i would characterise it.

R24

1800X: 100%
2700X: 108%
3950X: 243%
5950X: 274%
7950X: 393%

In 5 years AMD have increased their performance by a factor of almost 4. It might be 5 before this year is out...

The top end had an increase in core count though the mainstream didn’t.

I would also say its AMD who are driving this relentless boom in CPU performance, Intel are sweating trying to keep up.
Maybe at the high but in the mainstream intel are comfortably ahead. AMD should really be going for 8 cores on the ryzen 5 by now.
