£100 off the 7900X3D and I’ll really consider retiring the AM4 systems. That is a bargain.

 

[Addicted]

Sad I cant buy one today, also is there any 6000mhz C30 ram that doesn't have RGB :/

G.Skill Trident Neo is available in 6000Mhz CL30 non-rgb, though harder to find.

 

[Hotwired]

The surprise is it appears to be a price cut even on the 7950X3D which unlike the 7900X3D is generally out of stock.

I have this board and it beats most 670 boards for sure. Excellent.

Any particular reason or reasons? Genuinely curious as still deciding which board to get. I was considering the 670E-F

 

[Narn]

Don't forget to get thermal paste like I did.

anyone know whats a very good thermal paste these days? pretty much similar performance? oh and one that OCUK sells haha

 

[HappySheep]

@Narn noctua nt-h2 is solid

That board is technically better.

But I think the B650 E-E Gaming Wifi is the best value to features board. It certainly beats none E 670 boards.

The B650 E-E has;

4 Nvme slots (Two Gen 5, two Gen 4).
Two PCIe Gen 5 slots.
Error Display
Bios Flash back
Bios Reset Switch
6 Fan headers + Pump. 3 ARN headers.
Wifi and Blutooth.

What you miss (but save £200+) is;
More Overclocking stages (Unnecessary)
Duel Layer PCB
More USB/Sata Ports (But theres still plenty of the B650-E-E)

On the lower end boards gen5 speeds can be degraded. It's hard for manufacturers to test with no real gen5 products available when these boards were designed but this issue has already shown itself on gen5 Nvme storage drives where x670e boards had significant higher read/write speeds than b650. It's not a major issue so I don't think it matters for most people. It's hard to tell if this will affect Gen 5 GPUs as well but it's going to be several years before a GPU can saturated gen5 lanes anyway

This comes highly recommended.

Could it bot be on a case by case basis? What makes a b670 gen 5 Lane different to one of a b650 gen 5 Lane?

As for the GPUs I recently tried full bandwidth gen 3 on a 4090 and lost about 2fps. So I think that would be a consideration for a long time in the future as you say.

I did everything as you did. Same with you now, but still get lower points compared to yours on PYPrime

Sorry about late answer, i was out of town for my works. I just came to my house and seating front of my pc now..

I did 2000 FCLK, should i try 2133 ?

Any idea what should i do more bro ?

Here is my results:

Spoiler

 

[jediking]

Are you stable with my timings? And did you try to raise FCLk 2133?

For stability check, which software you recommend brother ?

Thanks. Again sorry for late answer, i was not at home.

I would like to think it would be enough for at least 2 applications. Anyone care to comment just to confirm?

I watched the review, I don't recall him saying there would be a price cut on the 7950/7900-x3d's.

As funny as that would be it seems like its only showing that price because the site detected Best Buy for the 7950x3d and Microcentre for the 7900x3d had those prices and in the 7950's case it's not that price any more. The AMD shop price is still the MSRP. Seems to just show the lowest price of all the retailers or themselves rather than just their price.

I don't see the 7950x3d getting a price drop either way when most can't get them. All I've seen is just constant talk about delays and no shipments at all of the product from AMD to the UK. It's more like the product doesn't exist, lol.

And you type as though it can't be used for productivity. This was targeted for gaming and they done an exceptional job with it, less cores, less clockspeed, less power and giving intels best a good slapping. Its an impressive product.

But it doesn't beat the intel offerings in all games so not quite the white wash your making it out to be.
Many reviews show its performance to be good but not in every game tested and its victory over raptorlake is not that big. Only metric it deserves full credit for is power consumption.

It beats them in the vast majority of games bar a few outliers. So quite the boot in the stones for Intel no matter what way you try and spin it. And all at lower power, lower clocks and less cores, so more than "just power consumption" it deserves credit for.

If you apply it lightly, you should get 5 applications out of a 1g tube.

Hopefully the 7800X3D V Cache will net me better 1% lows compared to my current 9900K. Looking forward to building this new system next week.
