OcUK Ryzen 5 9600X and Ryzen 7 9700X review thread

Kekw.gif... how bad are fanboys? Anything to defend a poor release

It’s cringe. I love AMD but wouldn’t defend this kind of release, it’s stagnation at best. Some wins on efficiency, but the architecture doesn’t seem to scale with more power so although it is efficient, you don’t get much improvement in performance for it. So at BEST it’s ‘meh’.
 

memory scaling review
I guessed Zen5 should like fast ram, but this much?
And that CL28 kit could definitely be tuned further
Maybe it offsets the higher latency that has been reported with these CPUs somehow? That was something observed with the earlier Ryzen CPUs.
 
from these and other reviews it seems like sweet spot might again be ddr5 6000 CL30 modules.
I like the look of these babies;


:cool:

I have said it multiple times and some couldn't believe it, even when AMD themselves also said the same - the RAM controller did not change in Zen 5 from previous version. It's the same IOD after all that is in Zen 4. I still don't understand why some people imagined it would magically be different and better, somehow, when there was not a single bit of data supporting such wishful thinking. AMD blabbered a bit about 6200MT being more stable but that's a case with Zen 4 as well on newer versions of BIOS for motherboards (as MSI claimed that for months now in case of Zen 4 too).
