Yeah but it is intel's slides, they would never show lower performance than the previous gen (which is expected given the compromises they made and lackluster IPC improvements). I really don't see this thing getting any better except for stability fixes.
Yeah, it was a typo. 9800X3D is also boosting higher so that explains the lower perf./watt versus 7800X3D. I don't really mind the increased power draw as the chip is a brutal performer.
I'm not so optimistic they can fix anything performance-wise. Most reviewers got the expected performance (somewhat lower than 14900K which matches their slide deck). What they can fix is anti-cheat engines incompatibility and some crashes that were observed. Performance wise, it is what it is...
That's because regular 9000 series is power capped hard at stock. AMD did allow 105W mode which is covered by warranty, but this needs to be manually enabled in the BIOS and is not regarded as "stock" setting.
Insane if true. 9950X is going to be an absolute unit of a CPU, especially with new RTX 5090 coming soon. Sad times for intel though, they are being relegated to bulldozer levels of performance.
Framechasers cringelord heard you :D. It is hilarious since it's coming from a guy who is selling gaming tweaking/OC guides for the most expensive CPUs. Also he complains about something he can only detect ("AMDip") lol
Insane difference versus 285K. Intel will be in the rearview mirror for a VERY long time. 35% faster is like 2 generations of upgrades on intel side, including a huge Vcache type solution.
Edit: DAPUNISHER beat me to it! I'm very late to the party :(
I think it's joever for intel... 9950X is overall better than 285K in pretty much everything (except R24 of course), while X3D will be making everything else look bad in games (7800X3D already does that even now). It is a missed opportunity by intel, for sure.
I am hoping that 12 and 16C X3D will have higher clock 3D chiplet clocks. That would be incentive to some potential buyers to opt for higher core count X3D parts, especially if they will have higher OC ceiling on the 3D chiplet.
