8 core Zen 3 CPU clocked at 4.6Ghz. Same cache as the 5800X, but clocked slightly lower. It appears to be the same specification as the OEM only 5800.

I definitely would've considered buying this CPU if it had come when Zen 3 CPUs released.

The 5800X is now available for ~£300, so I'd guess the 5700X will cost about £50 less.

I probably wouldn't recommend either chip for new builds, now that the 12700f is available for £300.

EDIT - Actually, I think the 10700K / 10700 were always slightly ahead of the 5800X, at least in 1080p and above:

So pretty much pointless as AM4 is nearing end of life and a second hand 5800x is around the same price.
 
I'm sure there were some things the 5800X was better at than the 10700K. I was waiting for the 5800 (oem) version to become available before I bought my 10700K. But they kept the prices of the 5800X high for a long time, and never bothered with a full release for the 5800.

The market should shift dramatically when Zen 4 releases at the end of 2022, if they can produce enough low end / mid end models. It's an odd year for AMD really, with Zen3D set to be superseded after 6-8 months. It seems like a test platform for their new cache technology, which should also be integrated into Zen 4.

5800x is a silly hot CPU becould its a single chiplet.... thats why its cheap

and TBF for £300(no more) i buy a 5700x it would extent the life of my system a good few years. and i can get £140 for my 3600

As far as I know, at stock Zen 3 is usually faster in games than Skylake cores (but i9 has lots of cache which can skew results), the results on those pages are iffy (maybe because the GPU is too slow?). TPU's 12600K review has different results which shows Zen 3 ahead. Rocket Lake vs Zen 3 is all over the place, depending on memory config and power limits. The 5700X is probably aimed at upgraders already on B450/B550 (e.g. Zen+ or Zen 2 owners), or as competition to the Alder Lake i5. I think the same, I would have seriously considered it instead of 10th gen, because the 5800X was far too expensive.
 
A 5700X would be good enough to keep an AM4 board going. At higher resolutions it should be good for a few years whilst AM5 and DDR5 mature/come down in price.

He used a 2080TI, which is an odd GPU to use given the 3090 was out at the time, a stock 2080TI is not much faster than my overclocked 2070S, which is = to a stock 2080S, according to TPU the 2080TI is 12% faster than that.

W1zzard was pulled up about the results, it was pointed out to him that the whole internet disagreed with his results and his response to that was basically the whole internet is wrong.

I don't trust anything AMD from w1zzard. There's always 1 and it seems to me w1zzard is it.

Yeah could well have been, only looking about as nothing available just yet - assume it's all happening on US time.
It confirms the 4/4 release date there at least.
 
Nice, I' changed my mind abit on this from my earlier comment as after this has been in market for a while the price will drop and second hand ones will start to show up.

No brainer for people on AM4 and unless I'm missing something I cant see any reason why with abit of tweaking these will perform at least the same as a stock 5800x.

Excellent news. Going to swap out my 3700X for either a 5700X or second hand 5800x IF I can get a reasonable priced mid range GPU in the near future. That's a big if :p

what do you call mid range, GPU's are on the down. i paid £500 for a 6600xt and you can now pick them up got £350.
The model i got is still £450, but it still hurts when i have only had the gpu about 2 weeks

Well, I would call a 6700 or 3060 a mid range GPU. I refuse to fall for the price jiggery-pokery they pulled. Currently running a RX570 4GB
