I think that’s a fair choice…
But I’ve got to say, having bought a 9950x, I’ve not been more impressed by a CPU for quite some time.
Granted I came from a 3950x, so the uplift was always going to be substantial, but what I really was not expecting was how incredibly well these chips overclock. The architecture seems to have plenty of headroom; which I don’t think many of the reviewers have touched on at all.
PBO all core negative 30, with another -10 on mid and high loads thanks to the new curve shaper is absolutely rock solid; and it’s pushed my chip to just under 49k in cinebench; without barely touching the sides in terms of tuning.
I’m all about productivity, so my view may not align with those of you who focus purely on gaming, but this has been a fantastic generation for me.
I love AMD, but really......back to bed, Zzzz Zzzz Zzzz, they compared obviously a 9800X3D 8 core part against a 7950X3D 16 core part...............the 7800X3D already beats the 7950X3D.
Hmm, watched and have to say IMO it was an awful video.
The arguments were:
"The reviewers didn't tweak the 9700X to max performance before testing"
"reviewers use the wrong settings to test, it should be 1080p, but actually they DO use 1080p but HUB used ultra settings"
"They didn't use 24H2 but then did but that doesn't actually make a massive difference "
"I tested the 7800x3d with 6000MT RAM as it doesn't care as much about RAM speed, here's some benchmarks that show it does improve performance a bit but I'm going to use the slower RAM anyway"
"My benchmarks show the 7800X3D is faster and more efficient than the 9700X when I tune the 9700X including using faster memory, adding a 100mhz boost override, bumping infinity fabric speed and unlocking the power limit"
Nonsense.
The question now for me is wait for the 9800X3D or go for the 7950X3D
The 7950X3D not the 9950x3d
This one sounds like pie in the sky, total marketing BS in other words. Time will tell soon enough.
yep. I don't go there anymore. He has his own little vendetta going on.
Yes and you all know Prime 95 is the best way to test RAM
It can, as I have 8200 working at the moment with no real issues. I thought it would be good to post an 8000 example with a bit more detail than what HUB did.
8400 is a bit more of an faf but not looked at that in any great detail
