First Game Test With the Ryzen 7 5800X3D Appears as Promised
XanxoGaming has now posted its first game benchmark with the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, paired with a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Founders Edition. They put it up against an Intel Core i9-12900KS and Core i9-12900K. However, as you might have deduced from the headline of this news post, so far, they've only run a single game, but are promising to deliver more results shortly. That single game so far is Shadow of the Tomb Raider at 720p and using low settings, which means that this is a far cry from a real world scenario, but it does at least give a first taste of what's to come. For whatever reason, the Core i9 systems are using an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti and the CPUs are paired with DDR5 memory rated at 4800 MHz CAS 40. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D has been given another pair of 8 GB modules, so it's now using dual rank memory, but still at 3200 MHz and CAS 14.
In their test, the Core i9-12900K averages around 190 FPS, which they place as their baseline. The Core i9-12900KS manages around 200 FPS, or a bit over a five percent improvement. These benchmark numbers are provided by CapFrameX that claims that due to the low resolution used, the GPU doesn't really matter and although it's not an apples-to-apples comparison, it's very close. So what about the Ryzen 7 5800X3D? Well, it gets an average FPS number of 231, which is a bit odd, since the Intel CPU benchmarks are rounded and the AMD ones are not. Regardless, that's over a 20 percent increase over the Core i9-12900K and over 15 percent of the Core i9-12900KS. XanxoGaming is promising more benchmarks and those will be delivered at 1080p at Ultra settings according to the publication. In other words, this is still not what most of us have been waiting for.

I've seen a lot of forum members having a hard time wrapping their head around this.
If he just wanted 8 cores there are definitely better choices out there lol.
You're the one who's complaining about the price, while the rest is waiting for better tests before judging whether it's crap or not, worth it or not.
;)
More importantly how did "a Peruvian site called XanxoGamging" end up with a sample? Or do they normally get first dibs and blow NDA's??
Did a mild OC ,went from 185 to 194 , not close to that beast .
I have a 5800X and have no intention of upgrading it, even if the 5800X is 40% faster - simply because I'm GPU limited most of the time and the 5800X is plenty fast enough.
Whether it beats Intel or not is largely irrelevant - What matters is whether the 5800X3D is worth 50% more than a 5800X at real world resolutions with common graphics cards.
Some scientific simulations and similar stuff have shown gain but those are a very niche market.
3200MHz CL16 = 10ns
3600MHz CL18 = 10ns
5200MHz CL38 = 14.615ns
So the higher speed and CL DDR5 memory is at default for people on the cheap stuff the faster DDR4 sadly is en latency if the calulation is right.
