    Hey just out of curiosity since you did no mention it in the video. Did you have a fresh windows install + , Updated bios, updated chipset drivers, Xbox game bar setup? I remember a video discussing a potential issue when switching between the 7 series chips and how the 7950x3d is supposed to "park cores", where it disables half of the cores for gaming resulting in better gaming performance. Without a full reinstall of the system, in the case of moving from a 7800X3d to a 7950X3D the system can still attempt to utilize all cores, thus resulting in worse gaming perforamnce for the 7950X3D since only half of the cores have access to the 3D vcache.

    Nice video. I had a hard time choosing between the two. But I settled on the 7950x3d because I do a lot of actual work that needs 16 cores. The 7950x3d is basically a 7800x3d connected to a 7800x on the same chip. Obviously it's not that simple. But that's a good way to think about it.
    Having said that, I am absolutely blown away by the performance. I had a 5900x and a 3080. I upgraded the 3080 to a 4090. I knew there would be around a 15-30% bottleneck depending on the game. I didn't think it was going to be noticeable. And it wasn't a big deal until I upgraded to the 7950x3d. I haven't seen this big of a jump in overall performance in a very long time with PC hardware. (I've been building PCs for almost 30 years now.) But to be fair I also went to CL30 6000mhz DDR5 and the Samsung G8 OLED 3440x1440 monitor. That monitor combined with the 7950x3d and 4090 is something to behold. I saw a 40fps jump in F1 23 and the 1% lows were massively higher. 1% lows are what cause you to see and feel the stutters and jitters. Now they are non-existent. First thing I did was make sure the 7950x3d was properly scheduled, launched F1 23, cranked absolutely everything and I'm getting an average FPS of 170. I sat and watched the F1 23 benchmark in Vegas with rain loop for an hour because I was so blown away at how beautiful and smooth it was. 🤣
    I will add that nobody should buy the 7900x3d. That CPU makes no sense for anyone. You only get 6 cores with v-cache. It's more expensive than the 7800x3d and has worse performance in gaming and slightly better performance in productivity work.
    The 7950x3d is expensive though. But I've spent a lot more on CPUs in the past. Like Intel's Core 2 Duo x6800 Extreme back in the day. That chip was $1,200. 😬

      @dangerboy551 8 місяців тому +2

      If you install the chipset driver of the 7900x3d (and 7950x3d for the matter) it comes with firmware that scans the current running program to check if it's a game or not. If it's a game, half the cores will be disabled automatically and performance is on par with the 7800x3d. Otherwise all cores will be used. For the price I think it's the best value actually. Given that you use it for workloads outside of gaming as well of course.

      @@dangerboy551 I have the 7950X3D and I can tell you in reality it's not always like that. Games using the V cache core suddenly don't do that after a chipset driver update, or the V cache chiplet is MOSTLY being used but still getting badly impacted by some light loads on the none V cache chiplet etc. I have set the max speed of the none V cache chiplet cores to 5050. That way Windows will ALWAYS put all the load on the V Cache chiplet first. It's not the perfect solution, but I got tired of having to check if everything was running as it should, and I only use my PC for serious stuff 20% of the time. Now my CPU is always a bit faster than the 7800X3D in gaming.

      If you want a balanced gaming/productivity workload it does make sense. My 7950x3d (non oc) is pretty easy to cool especially if you're only doing one thing at a time. When I'm just gaming, I'm only utilizing the first ccd so the wattage sits around 80-87 so it's like the 7800x3d in that case when it comes to temperatures. But the bequiet shadow rock TF2 is more than enough to cool the 7950x3d even when utilizing all the cores at once.

    Good video quality overall and I like your production, however I am just not sure about the gaming tests. I highly doubt people spending 7950x3D money are gaming at 1080p, I would be interested to see the same tests in 1440p or 4k.... I run a normal 7950 and 4090 with a Samsung Neo G9 and love it, I watched your video because I am trying to decide if the 7950x3D is worth swapping over to. If I was building new, I think the 7800x3D and a 4080 would be the sweet spot for mid\high tier builds, and would go with 5800x3D and whatever GPU budget would permit.

    The 7950X3D will consume more watts over the 7800X3D but in production workloads it is actually more efficient. You cannot just compare the power consumption without taking into account how much work is done in that same time. In gaming workloads also - the 7950X3D is not far behind the 7800X3D, in reality the difference is about 20W, its nothing. And I wonder what happens if you would disable the non v-cache cores and play with the curve optimizer, the 7950X3D would probably be as efficient as 7800X3D in gaming, not sure thought, need to do some testing when my 7950X3D arrives :)
    But yea, it is clear that if you need a CPU for gaming only, and you don't want to tweak it in any way, the 7800X3D is the better choice.

    For pure gaming the 7800X3D is great, silent and easy to keep cool, but if you want a more flexible setup go with the 14900K as it delivers in games and all applications, including single core tasks, emulation and AI. Power consumption in idle and low workload is also better, so if you surf or do light office work on the system a lot, you may even save money compared to AMD. Task scheduling is much better on a 14900k than on the 7950X3D, so Intel saves you a lot of headaches. There are a few games that also have problems with E-Cores and could profit from something like Process Lasso, but you don't need it all the time to get the best performance.

      Unsure how I stand on this.
      On one hand, I understand where you’re coming from, and I wonder what would have happened if AMD went full 3D cache and focused on making the product as a whole perform better everywhere without wasting resources on making kinda two separate types of products work.
      On the other hand, what if 3D ccds would have never reached 7950x/whatever non-3D performance. That would have tanked the whole lineup, except for gaming.

      X3D vcache was built for gamers, otherwise they should have just focused on improving the 7950X so they werent easily beaten by 13900K. AMD needs to go all out on everything, especially with flagship products, x3d and non x3d.

      The 7900x3d can only uses 6 cores, one 3Dcache enabled CCD for gaming (not 12cores) due to its design, where the 7800x3d uses all its 8 cores on the one CCD. Ironically this makes the 7800X3d a little faster now for gaming and more future proof for gaming. If you really are running true productivity workloads regularly as well, sure go 7900x3d.

    For pricing i think 7800x3d and 7900xtx for 1200 dollars this summer was best deal, it is cheaper than a 4090 or 4080 with more performance with SAM and overclocking, in the couple games i play the 7900xtx is faster than 4090 and combined with SAM and a overclock it is a nice bit faster, combined with the price of being 25% cheaper for a. GPU+CPU together and getting a total system of CPU GPU MOBO RAM for the same price as a Nvidia GPU, that is insane, you can build a top tier system with close to, to better performance than using the 4090 or much more than a 4080 for much less money and the drivers only increasing the performance of AMD GPUs, i have a 5800X3D and 3080FTW3 ultra with a lovely overclock making my entire system a grade above stock performance, the -.30 CO giving me low temps and steady 4.54-4.89ghz boost clocks and ddr4 3200 at 3466 cl16 and +1400 +165 on GPU it performs in the top 1-10% of the same hardware. Shows performing above expectations when tested. I dont think ill upgrade systems unless a wonderful deal pops up on 7800x3d and 7900xtx or 4080/4090 they would have to drops like 400 dollars or more and cpu would habe to be around 300-350, so i think ill wait until next generation of hardware as a upgrade now to anything less than the best would not be a upgrade or so minimal it wouldnt be worth the money and time spent on it.

    This is a bad one sided gaming test for these CPUs, these CPU's are being tested at max settings in game and the rtx4090 is bottle necking both CPU's here. For competitive gaming, you want to turn the settings down to low with all eye candy settings off, here you will see the 7950x3D will get much higher FPS in most all games than the 7800x3D because of the much higher 700mhz clock speed and bigger cache size. Bottle necking CPU's with GPU's because of max graphics settings is not how you fully compare test bench CPU's properly. If you simply remove the GPU from the equation, the 7950x3D is much faster than the 7800x3D in gaming.

    The 7950X3D does exactly what it is supposed to do, and outperforms the 7800X3D slightly in games, and vastly in productivity. The fail here is that the things is much more complex, requiring users to know about OS schedulers. And upon initial release, MS Game Bar was not working very well, so cores weren't getting "parked". Which is a bad design. Gaming while running other software is very common. I've heard Game Bar is working better now, but a more optimal scheduler like Process Lasso with CPU Sets would be best. Of course your average user probably isn't going to do that. So the issue is that it actually can perform as best-in-class but not with the crappy MS designed scheduler. Perhaps simply too complex a CPU for most, but not accurate to say it doesn't outperform the 7800X3D in all areas when set up right. So if you want to grab Process Lasso and set it up, get one and set it up with something that far outclasses Game Bar, or hope Game Bar updates have made things better by now ( I have no idea, I use Lasso). Or just get the 7800X3D if you primarily game or 14900K if you primarily are productivity apps or if you are split down the middle, so you can be lazy and not need to rely on a better scheduler / MS app like Game Bar. Sorry... that's a lot, but accurate.
