Poll: Ryzen 7950X3D, 7900X3D, 7800X3D

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

The 7950x3d is probably what I would go for, I was impressed by the lower tdp but it seems like they had to reduce it to run the cache? I have a feeling 4k performance increase will be still 5 to 10% better than intel on the optimistic side with regards to gaming and matching performance of the 13900K if being conservative. I'm going off the performance difference of the 5800x vs the 5800x3d. As for the 13900KS, it will only impress me if the chips are much better voltage wise.

The show felt a bit like, and we have some 3d cache CPU's coming, but I would imagine the games they showed are some of the best case and it will probably win and lose some.

Well, we pretty much already know from the 5800X3D that there are games which simply don't care about cache much (or at all), so the gains won't be universal. There are also outliers the other way of course, which see truly massive gains. World of Warcraft as an example, where the 5800X3D was around 45% faster than a 5950X. That's why it's always important to check benchmarks for games that you personally care about.

For me personally, these chips tick all the boxes. The game I play most saw huge gains with the 5800X3D, and the emulator I use most sees huge gains from AVX-512. I also want a platform with longevity so I can be lazy and not have to rebuild my PC again for another five years.
 
For all the operating system scheduler developers, this should be "interesting".

While not as hybrid strange as Intel's P/E core hybrids, for the dual CCD parts it will still be two different performing dies with all that involves.

And that which, IMO, made the 5800X3D such an attractive part, that is not having to go crazy with high-end memory kits and getting good performance without much if any memory tuning, might not apply to the dual CCD parts. That is a thread ends up on the CCD without the stacked 3D cache, then presumably it really needs the tuned DDR5 anyhow.

Well the 13900K is officially crap tier now, Time to throw it against the wall :D

Nah, if anything these new parts look uncharacteristically weak. I was hoping for much more out of them tbh. Intel still king in so many games. Can't believe I waited for this v-cache for nothing. :(

13900K still had an easy 20% lead over 5800X3D (which was already better than Zen 4) in Cyberpunk 2077 (and similar open world RT games). They're barely showing a 10% gain over the 5800X3D, so it's still way behind. My only hope is that I know I can't really rely on AMD benchmarks for proper results, so there might be more to eek out of them when someone competent tests them.

The worst part for me is that I'm basically going to have to keep waiting for newer and better CPUs, except Intel has dumped on the bed and is looking like they are on vacation for another 2 years so 13900K is the best they'll have for a while, and Zen 5 is largely unknown but AMD seems to focus on making better server chips and then handing them down for us on desktop, and simply slapping some more cache on it doesn't seem to be enough.

So, an actual monster of a gaming CPU that can clear all hurdles for 120 fps gaming? Seems like it's going to be a few years. Meh.

Where are these results from? What resolution/settings used etc? Any links so I can review please.

The higher TDP numbers on the previous chips were pointless, these TDPs are what the chips *should* have been out the gate.

GN did a video on it a while back.

That's a good point, so unlike the 5800x3d which ran super well with any ram, you'll need good fast ddr5 ram for 7900x3d and 7950x3d because half the cores rely more on the ram as they don't have the Vcache
