    In my eyes the most interesting news of the Ryzen 9000 briefing was the outlook of 8+ year support for AM5 as well as the AGESA update finally enabling higher RAM speeds.

    Though as a B650 owner it read that we might not get the higher RAM speeds which is a bummer if true.

  2. In that case anyone having AM4 have absolutely no reson to upgrade and spend god knows how much for the whole new mobo + memory… just for a mere 12%.

    Patiently waiting for the 9800X3D and a good X870 board.

    Pricing will be everything on this 9700X. I have a 2700X and it’s been a great ride, will likely be coming to an end in the next year.

    Another gen I’ll be sticking with my 5800x3D.

  6. 12% faster **in blender**. An application where the x3d is already worse than it’s original. 

     If you purchased an x3d for it’s intended purpose (gaming), it will tell a whole other story.

    For reference, the 5900x is between 20 and 30% ahead in blender but behind in every game that doesn’t involve a lot of cores.

    The 5800X3D is really starting to feel like the 1080Ti of CPUs, just too good to justify the price of upgrading. At least for me.

  8. Well, looks like 7800X3D is gonna remain the king of gaming for a while at least.

    Please refer to the Ryzen 9 9950X as “Daddy” in future posts. Thanks.

    9700X is 12% faster than 5800X3D

    good to know 5800X3D owners can skip another generation

    At this rate I’ll have a 5090 before I upgrade from my 11700k

    5600/x with 32mb L3 cache holds well, even paired with a RTX 4090 at higher resolutions.
    5800x3D is beaut, but runs hot and not ideal for longevity.
