Poll: Ryzen 7950X3D, 7900X3D, 7800X3D

Will you be purchasing the 7800X3D on the 6th?

Yeap, can attest to this. I tested a 7600 (now sold on) and 7700 on my x670e Hero, both amazing CPU's for the money.
Tbf, I know there are one or perhaps two edge cases, Cyberpunk for example, where 6 cores is not enough and 8 is borderline,
But those cases are pretty rare currently. Cyberpunk seems to be the prime
Candidate for this tbf, in one or two areas of the map
Under specific settings. Spider-Man too, but too a much lesser degree from what I have seen.

Ran a few 3Dmark tests with my 7950x3D compared to the 5950x I had before. Nothing groundbreaking but an nice boost.

Yep synthetics will be approaching (but ultimately slower than) stock 7950 X levels. Games, for the most part(title dependent) will be faster than anything else.

dont know if anyone has managed to get one
i can only see that if you want a 7950x3d then u have to buy a gaming pc

ive decided that im not gonna buy a x3d anyways, benches show the 13th gen beats it or it literally head to head

I thought from comments on here that the 7950X3D would annihilate the 13th gen

It feels like its just AMD hype, like hype on a new product launch.

I dont think its the fastest CPU for gaming, its AMD new product launch corporate BS, I also think AMD will never beat Intel

Even though i didnt buy the x3d i feel cheated LMAO
 
@KompuKare on 3D stacking.

These 3D chips are showing us where AMD are going next with APU's.

The 7000 has a token iGPU, its just for display out put, nothing more, on the X3D variants it has access to the 3D stacked cache, which is even on a different die. the result...

A 3.3X improvement in performance.

It didn't need access to that cache and i'm sure it needs to be wired so to do it....

That attracted a lot of attention. I expect various tech sites will echo it without checking or take a look themselves.

Hardwareluxx looked at the claims, did their own tests and found no meaningful difference between them.

And another site that shows the X 3D faster overall @Harshell123

I can tell you from my personal experience as I also have an i9 13900 in my main PC. It has an slight edge over my 7950x3D. But I am not running every since benchmark under the sun. They both suit my needs and they both perform great.

On a side note, I need to send my ASUS Tuf B650M-Plus motherboard back :rolleyes:

Here's Spiderman with RT for comparison. Please take careful note of the settings and copy them exactly. Then walk down 5th avenue and 59th street towards, 55th street as per the video.

Spiderman on the 7950X3D + 4090. All 16 cores enabled and SMT. I will test again later to see if tweaks such as disabling SMT help improve performance.
@LtMatt Nevermind, just did this, pretty short run on toms dinner, stock 12900k, im showing everything you need I think, if it's missing something just tell me and ill fix it.

I had to drop to 720P and FSR Ultra Performance to try and enforce a CPU bottleneck.

Very good performance, it beats the 13900k inside the restaurant but it loses in the small sideway. Can you try with a 4090 to have similar driver overhead or you don't have it anymore?

What I don't like is the power draw, it's similar to my 12900k. Of course, the 13900k at the same scene was hitting 140 to 160w, with the average being 150+. So, not bad at all, but still if you believed the rumors, it would look like a disappointment

EG1. Is this the 3d? Performance seems really low, you sure your GPU isn't bottlenecking?

Yes, I'll rerun it with the 4090 later and tag you in when its done.

@Bencher The reason the power draw is higher is because the game is using all 16 cores. Power draw is lower in games that use 8 or less cores.

My 7950X was drawing 160W in the same area at lower performance.

Edited the last post. Performance at the sideway is really low (initially i was looking at the averages overlay), have you turned the 2nd ccd off? I think this area needs cores. Or try even lower resolution, maybe your GPU is the culprit. I don't have the 13900k anymore but I have a video in that small street, while running which lowers framerate by 15-20 fps. Here is the run if you are interested



If you want to test another area, there is a huge road in apartments, that probably puts pressure on IMC and cache. I might make a video later to show you where it is.

No, that was all 16 cores running but SMT was off. I can only go off the video you posted as I copied that as best as possible, but performance looked very good to me in comparison to the video you posted. If you watch them side by side, you'll see what I mean. Example: https://imgsli.com/MTU5Mzcz

That new video you've shared looks to be with different settings so probably not comparable. However, I don't mind putting the 4090 in and comparing like for like.

However, maybe we should just run the built in benchmark at low resolution to compare performance? Much more accurate and consistent than what we are doing now.

At stock or did you oc it? That's 13900k levels of power draw :D
That was tuned and clocked, game uses all the cores you throw at it.

Of course the 3d is beating my run, that's a stock 12900k man :D


I was comparing it to the 13900k, I expected zen 4 3d to beat it. Both videos have similar settings, the only think I might change is the resolution and the DLSS which don't really make a difference, im CPU bound in every run.

For games that use more than 8 cores like doom eternal, is there any performance difference between turning the non v cache ccd off and having it on? I'm curious to see if the extra 8 cores has any actual effect on performance

what's really crazy is amd latest dragon range laptop cpu has the same multithread performance as the 7950x3d

AMD really needs to increase desktop cpu core counts now, the laptops are on par with desktop performance and we can't have this it's heresy

Can you share that 13900K video then of the same scene like your 12900K video?

Can you put up a 480P benchmark run from Cyberpunk Ultra RT preset + DLSS Quality and run the built in benchmark and post the score?

I'll have to test that one, but from what I have seen if a game uses more than 8 cores its best to keep CCD1 enabled as the games will use the extra cores @Grim5. Certainly, that is the case in Cyberpunk and Spiderman.

It might have the same punch, but does it last?

Ι don't have the 13900k anymore man, gave it away cause gaming power draw was nuts.

The built in benchmark is useless for CPU performance, it's really light on the CPU, but sure ill do it in the afternoon, g2g now. Below another area you can test
