AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D Drops to $409, to Clash with Core i7-14700K

I guess you did not see that he is playing at 1080P. Indeed the 7800X3D was not faster in EVERY game. Even in that 12 Game assessment there is a Game that skews the numbers. Did he use rebar? What about Smart Access Memory? Was there a 7900XT or XTX to use? I would also argue that 1080P is no longer a viable option to compare chips when we have GPUs and that are capable of separating themselves even further at 4K based on the CPU.

Then you mention the 7600X3D and price without understanding that the chip does not exist.

You are also missing the elephant in the room. There have been recent threads wanting a 5900/5950X3D chip. Those are even some people that have 5800X3D. The smoothness of 12 cores that is the 5900X has been transitioned to the 7900X3D. Of course he did not use any other benchmarks. He even stated that all of the chips were released at the same time, so you are free to agree with him.

Regardless of how you feel 12 cores feels smoother than 8 cores on AMD when using the PC daily. These numbers are at 4K

Arent those some non demanding games where even the 7years old 1700 would be enough?

I usually just post what I have been recently playing. It can be extremely random. I never adjusted Hotline Miami and Total War was during a Quick save during a turn. Yes AMS2 seems to be able to run with anything but WRC Generations is pretty good and so is Redout 2. What a Game that is.

Typical 7900X3D numbers.
It's a 70% productivity CPU without breaking the bank and 30% gaming one.
I still like it no matter how ridiculous it is.

But the competition is more well prepared now. If Intel had a better platform (and more clear upgrade path and performance increase), we wouldn't even discuss about 7900X3D.
It would be 100% Intel.

So i'm going to flex with some numbers too. Did some PSE bursts, cpu never went above 80C with cpu/case fans running at 22%(380rpm), only got close while GameGuard did it's thing. Numbers are in 1080p, I highly recommend everyone to try out PSO2 base game, it's very underrated in Americas.

And chilled some in Limsa. Dawntrail is just around the corner!

Did you know that the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV has a free trial, and includes the entirety of A Realm Reborn AND the award-winning Heavensward expansion AND the Stormblood expansion up to level 70 with no restrictions on playtime?

Cheers, may the Viera's bring you egg's and have a beautiful Easter.
