MSI OCLab Reveals Ryzen 9000X3D 11-13% Faster Than 7000X3D, AMD Set to Dominate "Arrow Lake" in Gaming
MSI OCLab made some groundbreaking disclosures about the gaming performance of upcoming AMD Ryzen 9000X3D processors. It looks like AMD is set to dominate the Intel Core Ultra 2-series "Arrow Lake-S" desktop processors in gaming performance, if these numbers hold up. In the games that MSI tested, namely "Far Cry 6," "Shadow of the Tomb Raider," and "Black Myth: Wukong," the "8-core 9000X3D" processor, or the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, is found to be 11% faster on average than the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. The "16-core 9000X3D" processor, which is expected to be the Ryzen 9 9950X3D, is an impressive 13% faster than its predecessor, the Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
Normally we'd expect bigger gen-on-gen gains for the 8-core part than the 16-core part, but the 16-core 9000X3D pulling ahead by that much over its predecessor hints at the possibility of AMD either giving it significantly higher clock speeds, or the rumor about AMD deploying both 3D V-cache on both its CCDs could be true after all. The 9950X3D could end up roughly on-par with the 9800X3D if this turns out to be true, given that the gaming performance delta between the 7800X3D and 7950X3D is roughly that much—2-3 percentage points. Intel earlier this week officially announced the Core Ultra 2-series desktop processors. As part of the announcement, the company put out some first-party gaming performance numbers, which put the top Core Ultra 9 285K either on-par with the Core i9-14900K, or faster by 2-3%, which means it should land behind even the 7950X3D in gaming performance, and AMD is set to dominate Intel in gaming performance with the 9000X3D series.

Either way, @usiname should look into fixing the problem, rather than just accepting daily BSODs for the sake of fanboy-feud fuel.
It looks like many people here have BSOD problem with their Intel's systems and they fill affected. Sorry for your mistake, but next time just avoid Intel
i bet with more game tested, the number will be close to 5% again or maybe this year X3Ds will be super power efficiency, who knows xDDD
More interested in AMD's 8000 series GPU's catching up with CPU's.
-They are power hungry - maybe this will be fixed for first time since many years with Arrow Lake
-They are with e-cores, I will never buy such CPU nor from Intel, nor from AMD with their shitty cores with half cache that are not different from intel's one
Also if they release better CPU at better or competitive price, I will see if I will return again on Intel, but I don't see them to fix the second. Perhaps more likely is AMD to take the same road with the small crappy cores
One more think - Their sockets that change on each generation, this is unacceptable. For first time they have socket that lasted on 3 different generations, but I can't call it even different generation, Its all the same Alder Lake core with higher clocks, Arrow Lake is expected to be single generation for single socket - RIP LGA-1851 2024-2024
How this miniscule kind of performance increase is going to generate upgrade sales is beyond me. Hey look, you can have maybe 5-10% more frames than your old and awful 7800X3D for the low low price of $500+!!! Grab 'em while they're hot!
One thing is for sure, this Zen 5 is not a fixable situation, it's almost certainly either an errata in the design, or a deliberate lie by AMD marketing.
Somebody needs firing.
