Going back to when Matt replied to you here....

Ryzen 7950X3D, 7900X3D, 7800X3D

Just bought the 7950x3d. What’s the best way to run this for gaming? I’ve seen people say that Process Lasso is the best way, but surely that’s not what AMD recommend. Would installing all the drivers as per AMD’s recommendations work just as well? I have watched some YouTube videos but it seems...

.....has anything changed much for you with your thoughts when you first bought a 7950x3D....? Not sure if this was your first AMD CPU but are you overall happy with it for performance and glad you bought that one over the 7800x3D..?

So a typical out of box experience, with game bar, is going to get the most performance from the 7950x3D without really working hard to achieve anything more..?

Thanks.

I am happy with the cpu and am glad I buy this over the 7800x3d.

I have had no issues with game bar whatsoever as long as you install everything correctly you will get good performance. No need for anything else.

Unfortunately my only comparison was with people who had very high benchmark numbers, and I was thinking something was maybe wrong until I find some things out about certain things you can do to get better numbers.

This does not make the 7850x3d bad at all and still I would recommend, but don’t think that there is something wrong if you do not reach 500 average in Warzone 2 benchmark.

As long as you install chipset drivers, enable game mode and install and update Xbox game bar, you will have a great CPU. Process lasso is not giving better performance and is not needed either, I have tested this.

Some people tell me to install something and tweak a few things and I get 20fps better score in benchmarks. This is not how I want to do things. I would rather see real results that everyone can obtain.
 
Has anyone tried pairing a 7800X3D with a 7900XT?

I'm going to be building a rig for VR soon, and will be supersampling with it, so was wondering about bottlenecks.

In the not too distant future the resolution of VR headsets will be going up to 4K (per eye), so will a 7900XT be enough if paired with a 7800X3D?

Or will I be better off going for a more balanced system and pairing a 7600X and 7900XT together?

X3Ds are ahead of everything else at VR so would be the best choice.
 
Mornin Gents, first i ran ram test at the expo settings for 6hrs with no faults, then i set all the changes @LtMatt suggested apart from tRFCsb as 50 was the lowest allowed. There was also a VDDIO setting that wasn't in zen timings it was increasing with the Dram voltage so i just set it to 1.35v, i ran VDD at 1.43 it ran for 30 mins ok so i went to bed, when i got up the computer had gone to sleep after an hr, i hadn't changed the power setting haha. Weird that it ran for 6 hrs the first time. So at least i know it ran matts settings for 1.5hrs with no errors.

The setting is probably there just named something different. It’s annoying to be honest im on MSI as well.
 
It's not on zen timings maybe they class it as a cpu setting or something, anyway I've just realised that some of the settings didn't apply, tCL went to 38 not 28 which is set in bios. Some of the other values changed but these are not listed in the bios unless in a different section.

Might want to lower your soc voltage, 1.2v will be fine.
 
I tried upping the vdd 1.44 and 1.45 both loaded into windows but the ram had reset to default values, i put it back to 1.43 that i had set before and now its loaded into windows with all the right values so im now confused lol. im running ramtest now
 
Yesterday was having all sorts of issues, left pc for a while and it went to sleep wouldnt wake up, hard powered it down and was stuck at the yellow light on board (memory related I believe) and refused to boot, had to eventually clear CMOS to get it to boot, left ram at stock and its been perfect ever since, saw that AMD only officially guarantee 5200mhz so maybe my chip isnt a good one or the ram isnt upto spec?
