RTX 4090 & 53 Games: Core i9-13900K vs Ryzen 7 5800X3D Review

Intel's new 13900K offers amazing gaming performance, thanks to improvements to caches, IPC and higher operating frequencies. But is that enough to beat the 3DV Cache-powered AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D? What about platform cost?

"HUGE"

5800X3D isn't 5800X?
Here you can see the differences in the tests focused on the graphic locations in games (not built-in benchmarks at any kind).
Overclocked 13900K 5600/4600 P/E cores, uncore 4500. Memory 6600 MHz CL 34-42-42-62.
5% here vs 21% there in 1080p in compare to 4090 clearly indicates bottleneck. 4K is similar...about 25-30%. Ofc these are cards for 4K but if you want to test further in 1080p it would be highly reccomended to change platform.

Very nice performance but as others have said that price is horrendous compared to the performance you get. I recently got a 3080ti and although the 4080 blows it out of the water at 1440p I'm more tempted to wait for the 4080ti and/or for 4080 prices to drop before possibly upgrading. If they'd done the 4080 at $999 USD and then the 4080ti next year at $1199 or something that would have been another story.

Thanks for the timely review @W1zzard. It seems like the 4090 is being held back by the CPU even at 4K or the 4080 would be further behind. In games that scale properly, the 4080 is further behind than the average, e.g. The Witcher 3, and Control. The difference between the two is borne out in games that make heavier than usual use of Ray Tracing, e.g. Control, and CyberPunk. In Control, the 4090 is 50% faster in Ray Tracing at UHD.

RTX 4090 & 53 Games: Ryzen 7 5800X vs Ryzen 7 5800X3D Review

How much performance can you gain with Ryzen 7 5800X3D over the non-3DV Cache Ryzen 7 5800X when using the mighty GeForce RTX 4090? Our review has the answer, we test 53 games at three resolutions.

Nice review and while not huge, 6.8% is quite significant.
Also explains (besides other possibilities) that the gap to 4090 is about 7% smaller than, say, at computerbase, while RT gap figures are much closer.

One month after 4090 release, but every version of 4080 has that stupidly big 3*8pin to 12pin cable.

 

[Valantar]

Looks pretty good - the 7900 XT and XTX reviews will be really interesting. $1200 MSRP is way too high though, sorry.

 

[Eva01Master]

I didn't expect it to be this fast, that price, though...

 

[dir_d]

Thank you for your efforts W1zzard, i now await your 7900XTX review.

 

[Valantar]

One month after 4090 release, but every version of 4080 has that stupidly big 3*8pin to 12pin cable.

... what else would they have? One month is just about the time it takes to ship the boxes from the East Asian warehouses they're put in after production and to the US and Western markets. Are you actually suggesting that they might have changed the power connector within that time? 'Cause that's nowhere near possible.

Price is high because Nvidia wants to force potential buyers to take the 4090 instead for not much more.

 

[JATownes]

I admittedly haven't been on the lookout, but after a quick look here in West Texas, Wizz appears to be correct. If it's at MSRP, it's out of stock. If it's in stock, it's $2k+.

 

[aciDev]

FE is in stock in Italy? Here it sold out in 20 minutes and was never replenished again

Also in France and Spain, it's the same retailer.

 

[MxPhenom 216]

Good card, but we as a community need to give Nvidia a reality check with this pricing. 80 series card should not be over $1k

 

[Valantar]

True, but the 4090 is also ridiculously priced, so the point still stands. GPUs above $1000 will never be anything but idiotic. Even $1000 GPUs are stupid. $200 GPUs are great. Between there the spectrum kind of fills itself out.

 

[Tech Ninja]

As a long time Nvidia supporter I love all the new tech and performance, but the prices are too much. There is actually a chance I might go AMD for the 1st time since the 15+ year old 5000 series. Which is annoying because DLSS 3.0 and RTX are amazing. Or I might stay with my 2080 another Gen!

 

[ThrashZone]

sorry .. i meant any 4090.. fixed my original post

Hi,
Yep bestbuy wait in line or waiting list and b & h
Scalpers get the first releases unfortunately

Can you blame the vendor for not being able to push out enough of them at launch to keep everyone saturated? If they did that, they would not sell anything into the future and consumers would wait for all production to be finished. It's not like you can never order them for MSRP, but you have to be on the lookout. Just like a PS5, for 2 years already...

 

[arestavo]

Looking forward to seeing 7900XTX benchmarks to see what I can get for $200+ less, vs the green giant's $1200 80 series cash grab.

 

[AnotherReader]

Looks pretty good - the 7900 XT and XTX reviews will be really interesting. $1200 MSRP is way too high though, sorry.

Extrapolating from TPU's results at 4K, the 7900 XTX should be about 15-20% faster than the 4080 at rasterization.

Price is insane and this is a terrible product for that reason.

• September 17, 2020 3080 $699 - 67% faster than the 2080 also at $699
• September 24, 2020 3090 $1499 - shipping cards tended to have large overclocks compared to spec, and were twice as fast as the 2080 as a result
• October 29, 2020 3070 $499 - same as the 2080 Ti, 25% slower than the 3080, 31% vs. the 3090
• December 2, 2020 3060 Ti $399 - 1/3 slower than the 3080, 39% vs. the 390

Now here:

• October 12, 2022 4090 $1599 - this time Nvidia left virtually nothing in the tank, so third-party designs had barely better performance than reference. 92% faster than the $699 3080
• November 16, 2022 4080 $1199 - again nothing left in the tank, and only 52% faster than the $699 3080, so:

So

• the price of the 3080 was $699, and this is relatively not as good as that
• by this point in the 30 series cycle, the 3070 was out, at $499, although this is relatively better than that
• therefore a fair price for this would be $599 as the 4070 ti, and there should be a real 4080 at $699.

Since it's being sold for twice the fair price, it's one of the worst product launches in history, certainly far worse than say the 6500 xt at the peak of the mining boom, at least that served a purpose in being useless for mining. This? No. Bad, bad Nvidia.

 

[Luminescent]

I will probably never buy a GPU that expensive and never meet someone who owns one.

 

[defaultluser]

Nice job Nvidia. The price is too high but other than that this card looks very good.

yeah kids, if you wait the initial three months rush, these cards will quickly fall in price (AMD, plus any shortage on launch day will be gone)

but yeah, this needs tom fall down to 1000 to make sense long-term

 

[Lionheart]

Good card, hits where I expected it to, garbage price, don't be tempted lads, speak with your wallets.

 

[Tech Ninja]

I have 1 request. When reviewing the 7900XTX please have a chart with max RT and DLSS Quality plus FG vs FSR. I want to know how far behind it is with all the bells and whistles on even if it makes AMD look bad. I want to know exactly what I’m giving up for $900 vs $1200.

 

[medi01]

vs $1200

Where can you buy that for $1200? German price is around 1500 Euro. (4090 2300+)

Also, XTX is $1000.
