    Frame Chasers made a great point about this CPU. He says out of all the AMD CPUs this is one he would actually change to over the 7800X3D or even 7950X3D because of how snappy it is. He said everything outside of actually playing in the game feels better on the 9950X. Which is important if you mess stuff like RPCS3 the process of loading the game can be brutal and very sluggish on most CPUs but way faster on the 9950X unpacking a Fitgirl Download way faster. Pretty interesting.

    I have both the 7950x and the 9950x. With the 9950x I can set the Core offset a lot lower than I can with the 7950x and heat is not as much of an issue. Yes, I have that problem too with the cores on CCD #0 being overclockable and the cores on the 2nd CCD being sluggish.

    • @bgtubber
      @bgtubber 2 місяці тому +4

      Same here. I can set an average offset of -25 to -30 on my 9950x whereas the average on my 7950x was -10 on CCD0 and -20 on CCD1. BTW, I wouldn't say the cores on CCD1 are sluggish. They have ~5% lower _peak_ frequency, which will be barely noticeable. Of course, identical quality chiplets would have been ideal.

Instead of buying two from the same retailer and risking getting two processors that has cuts from the same wafer, I bought one from one retailer and the second one from another retailer.
      Out of the box the 2nd CCD on my CPU runs close to 4.9GHz but his runs a bit over 4.7GHz.... but this could be because we're not running the same brand of boards. We are running similarly priced X670E boards though. He can hit a -28 CO before his CPU becomes unstable but mine does -26. His CPU seems to have a bit more throw with the 2nd CCD, and he can hit 5.3GHz with it, whereas mine does not want to go much past 5.1GHz.

    I got the 9950X day 1. I really needed the upgrade as someone who is working with 3D software. I'm pretty happy so far in terms of productivity performance, I came from the Intel i7-7800X so it's a very big upgrade for me and I can work on subdivided meshes in Blender without too much lag now. The recent optimizations for compositing now being on the GPU is a bit funny to me now because previously I benefited on the old PC with this change, but now with this CPU I get just as good performance running the compositor on the CPU, though I think I'd still rather run it on the GPU. Gaming is secondary for me, so not being CPU bottlenecked anymore on the few demanding games that I play is great for me.

    I only game and the AIO seems to handle the 7700x for what I do, the 7800x 3D is hard to find because everyone was waiting for 9000 reviews before deciding what to buy and it got hit hard in sales, the 7700x is Amazon 1# best seller overall.

    Good review, and one of the only ones that are objective rather than cynical. I am not an AMD fanboy, as I have owned both CPUs at various times over the years, but it seems most reviewers are overly harsh on this release. True, it's disappointing that it's not much of an uplift over the previous generation, and AMD certainly overhyped it. However, it has regained the performance crown from Intel (not a small feat, as history and experience would confirm), is WAY more stable and cooler than Intel's 13th & 14th Gen CPU's. So, for someone like me, who is a content creator (not a gamer), and only upgrades my system every 5yrs or so, it's a worthy upgrade for sure. I also expect some future BIOS updates and Windows 11 optimizations (for AMD CPU's) will create a bit wider performance gap from the previous generation.

    Since you mentioned 6200 CL28 makes the 9700X much faster than the 7700X, I’m wondering if you can test memory scaling among the 7700X, 9700X (105W), 7950X and 9950X with the following configurations?
    1. 2000 MHz FCLK + 6000 CL30 (most other reviewers use this which I believe is unfair given they use 7200 CL34 or even 7600 CL34 memory for Intel)
    2. 2000 MHz FCLK + 6000 CL28
    3. 2067 MHz FCLK + 6200 CL28 (Your current config)
    4. 2133 MHz FCLK + 6400 CL30
    Would be interesting to see if Zen 5 scales much more with memory than Zen 4. If so, that means Zen 5 is incredibly memory bottlenecked which would explain why a 15% IPC increase resulted in a 5% gaming performance improvement.

I ask because I'm an old Linux head, and that CPU on that motherboard is exactly what I'm planning on buying ~ along with a new 2nd generation Noctua NH-D15-G2. And a 2 DIMM 64 GB kit of DDR5 that has an EXPO of 6,ooo MT/sec.
    And a 2TB Gen 4 M.2 drive.(Yes, there are gen 5 drives. Yes, they are faster. But they’re better in a server / data centre role, they’re not any better ~ (as far as I can see) in a home user Linux-head kit. They do use way more power and need a heat-sink, which the gen 4 is a bit optional on that front.)
    In fact ~ right now, what power supply are you using with that?
    ~ I will have a copy of Windows in there, it will be running in a virtualbox, inside of Linux Mint.
    I want a GPU that's the lowest end RDNA-4. I am not a gamer, but the old rig I have now, (i7 6700 non-k) has a GPU in it that was old news when I bought the thing, which was about 9 years ago, and ~ let's just say I don't want to do the same thing again. This building a new rig with a GPU that's already a generation or three out of date at build time ~ I've done it once. I'm not real keen to do the same thing again.
    Yeah ~ I think that's everything.
    Power supply??
    Thanks from Bogan Central, Southern Biz-vegas.

    Of cause they are not bad, just a bit disapointing in perf uplift, because most people is only interested in 3dv cache models. Question is, are the 3dv cache actually making all the non 3dv cache low-high mid models irrelevant, unless we are talking the 12 and 16 core models. Could AMD really do with eg 3 3dv cache models with 6/8 and a 16 core model for those that want a "do it all"CPU" that bridges top gaming 8 core and 16 core multi processing and then the 2 top processors as the only non 3dv versions?

    I had to disable Global C-states for best stability. Because when the cpu goes to low power and sometimes suddenly boosts to 5700, the computer restarts. When i disable c-states, power consumption on idle is higher, max boost is 5.5 ghz but i can set -25 on curve optimizer, so multicore performance is overall better because now it can constantly boost ~5.4 ghz all core.
    I am wondering about how the new curve optimizer works. I think it's now possible to give a higher power limit at Idle, but does that matter at that point, other than getting full 5.7ghz single core? 7950x already pulls ~60 watts on desktop with c-states disabled.

    At this point I don't care, I'm upgrading from a 10980XE which is way slower in IPC, lower cache too, and has the disadvantage of needing its mesh overclocked for performance. It's super stable but I'll put it on my custom watercooled rig and clock it higher, for my main rig the 9950x should be at least better than if I went with a 7950x3D for the most part, I think this gen is only for people upgrading from way older chips, if you have a 7800X3D you're wasting your money, however it doesn't make the chip bad, even with the latency between CCDs.
    Again, my CPU has mesh, and other things that cause even higher latency, it's fine, for real world usage INCLUDING gaming, you're fine, no sense in stressing about it, just get some nice solid stable RAM, and you'll be golden.

    I'm not too sure that having a mismatched frequency pair of chiplets matters that much. Under heavy load the top chiplet isn't going to maintain high frequency anyway. For gaming loads there's really no need for more than 8c/16t, so the second chiplet's peak frequency doesn't matter unless the scheduling is completely wrong. I'm wondering if a single Zen5c 16c/32t chiplet with 3D V-cache on top might solve these issues.

AMD knows pricing the 9700X near the 7800X3D is just shooting themselves in the foot yet they still continued such bad strategy, AMD is counting on the 7700/7700X running out of stock and the 9700X replacing them after few months with price cuts.

    These are all just my uneducated theories:
    My theory was that the late delay at launch was about binning, and the evidence is that they sprung core parking being necessary AFTER the clawback.
    They could have rushed the launch and had mediocre yields, and/or very likely they are hoarding good silicon for server chips. Calling the 65W part the X says to me they also just used a lesser tier of silicon for all consumer chips.
    Let's say hypothetically there are A, B, C, and D tiers of silicon that they must allocate in some fashion.
    They went from doing this with Zen 4
    7950X A + B (2 x 8)
    7900X A + B (2 x 6)
    7700X B (8)
    7700 C (8)
    7600X B (6)
    7600 C (6)
    7500F C/D (6) + Bad I/O Die
    To this with Zen 5
    9950X A + C (2 x 8)
    9900X A + C (2 x 6)
    9700X C (8)
    9600X C (6)
    Overall using less top bin silicon for consumer chips, allocating more for server, or perhaps, for X3D:
    With X3D, I'm guessing they used B or C grade for Zen 3 and Zen 4, and they have either plans to use better binned silicon for X3D this gen OR they have already set up the parity by putting equally binned (C tier) silicon in all of the consumer parts.
