I mean the cached chiplet. It’s running at 5.25GHz on the 7950X3D (cached all cores boost). You would need to drop it to 5GHz for it to be the same as a 7800X3D. Assuming of course that the 7800X3D can boost at 5GHz on all cores at once.

I dunno where you see 5.25

HWUB looked at the cached chiplet and saw 5GHz with only the cached chiplet loaded: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKt7fmQaGfQ at ~8:14

The difference between a 7600 and this chip is massive though. Hence the difference in price.

Not according to Tech Power up at 4k. +9% difference for £500 extra, +4% from the 7700x for £400 extra.

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D Review - Best of Both Worlds

The Ryzen 9 7950X3D is the spearhead of the AMD Zen 4 X3D lineup. In our performance review we test AMD's new 16-core flagship with dozens of applications and 14 games at up to 4K, to see whether AMD can take the performance crown from Intel, how power consumption is affected, and what can be...

The 7600 is literally a quarter of the chip the 7950X3D is. It massively faster.

There are already games that benefit from more than 8 cores though..

Did you watch the reviews? It looks like games will be caped to 8 cores and can only run on a single ccd. Even though the 7950x3d has 16 cores games will never have access to more than 8

It's even worse for the 7900x3d as it's stuck with 6 cores for gaming

Link please Grim. :)

If that was the case, I'd expect the X3D to do really bad in Cyberpunk 720P with RT enabled, but this is not the case.

I tesed Cyberpunk on the 7950X with SMT off, and it's using up to 80% of the CPU.

That's not how you should think about it. For example, look at Cyberpunk RT #s, you would do 40ish fps at 4K. Ok, cool, is that how you're going to play the game on a 4090? Or will you turn DLSS on and adjust it for your FPS target? It's important to not only look at the numbers but also think about them.
These 4K comparisons for CPUs are just dumb, it's like judging a Dacia Sandero to be just as fast as a McLaren 720S in a traffic jam. It's true, but also misleading.

Το be fair, that cyberpunk result is a huge outlier compared to every other review i've seen. In some amd wins, in some intel wins, but the difference in that game is never that huge. TPU at it's finest again.

Were talking about games though. It could have 200 cores but if it doesn't effect fps its pointless for a gamer.

We are talking about the highest end CPU on the bleeding edge of desktop technology. Non of these X3D chips are aimed at the bang for buck gaming crown, but neither is a bleeding edge GPU.

So are you saying a 4090 playing Cyberpunk using DLSS quality would see a bigger differential between the two cpus than in traditional raster? (which is 9%), and that differential is worth the extra £500?

I'm not saying there not worth it for productivity. My original post as stated is purely for someone who games only.
