AMD's Reviewers Guide for the Ryzen 9 7950X3D Leaks
AMD's Ryzen 7000-series CPUs with 3D V-Cache are set to launch next week and alongside the launch, there will obviously be reviews of the upcoming CPUs. As with many other companies, AMD prepared a reviewers guide for the media, to give them some guidance, as well as expected benchmark numbers based on the test hardware AMD used in-house. Parts of that reviewers guide has now appeared online, courtesy of a site called HD Tecnologia. For those that can't wait until next week's reviews, this gives a glimpse of what to expect, at least based on the games tested by AMD.
AMD put the Ryzen 9 7950X3D up against Intel's Core i9 13900K, both systems were equipped with 32 GB of DDR5-6000 memory and liquid cooling. Tests were done with both AMD's own Radeon RX 7900 XTX and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card. We won't go into details of the various benchmarks here, as you can find those below, but according to AMD's figures, AMD came out on top with a 5.6 percent win over the Intel CPU, at 1080p using the Radeon RX 7900 XTX and by 6 percent using the GeForce RTX 4090. This was across 22 different games, with Horizon Zero Dawn and F1 2021 being the games favouring the AMD CPU the most and Far Cry 6 and the CPU test in Ashes of the Singularity being the games favouring the AMD CPU the least. TechPowerUp will of course have a review ready for your perusing by the time the new CPUs launches next week, so you'll have to wait until then to see if AMD's own figures hold true or not.

If we're biasing a test why go half way I say :p.
Overall it’s a nice step up from non 3D cache parts. Mixed use cases also get the benefit of a normal CCD this gen too. 7900X3D and 7950X3D are definitely a good step up from the 5000 series in terms of overall value.
Tight timings giving huge boosts has been the case with all Zen forever though, it's just now starting to make it into the mainstream (because HWUB made a video about it - and also conveniently mentioned that they've been using a DDR5 6000 CL30 kit to do their reviews o_O - their numbers make a bit more sense now).
1) A 6000c30 costs as much as a 6600c34 kit.
2) A 7200c34 kit is just 50€ more expensive than a 6000c30 kit
3) The 7950x 3d + 6000c30 is in fact more expensive than a 13900k + 7600 kit :)
I'd like to see the latency numbers between the two
AMD mid 50's to intel's mid 30's is likely.
If it was 6% and included stuff like MSFS, ACC, Factorio etc then that would be a totally different story.
i don't know, its weird these days. lol
I was going by posts on this thread here's a 5800x3d
www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/share-your-aida-64-cache-and-memory-benchmark-here.186338/page-93#post-4959185
- DDR5 6000 CL30: $ 146
- DDR5 6600 CL34: $ 188
- DDR5 7200 CL34: $ 247
I see. You mean memory latency; in that case, I expect Intel to have lower latency.Let's see the 4k results with RT or higher.
