Yeah, but remember all the benchmarks that the Big Navi beats is with the Ryzen 5000 that gets more performance of it, we need to wait tests with Ryzen 5000 with the RX6000 side by side with the RTX3000.
@@filmaxx3 That's just false. The tests are versus RTX 3080, 3090 and RTX 2080 Ti (3070 substitute, since AMD obviously couldn't get their hands on a 3070 before launch to bench). ALL of these are benched on Ryzen 5000 CPUs (5900X to be precise), both with S.A.M. and without... so WTF are you talking about? There is no real world "boost" a RX 6000 card would get that a RTX card wouldn't (outside of S.A.M. of course, but we have results for on and off, so irrelevant to the subject). It's not like they benched RTX cards with a Ryzen 3000 or a Intel chip, all where on a X570 MB, 32GB RAM and Ryzen 5900X.
There won't really be much of a difference actually. The RX 6900 XT is about tied or a bit lower than the RTX 3090 according to AMD. There's not really much additional synergy in most titles unless a game can take advantage of Smart Access Memory.
I'm not a professional, but I want a 5950x to decrease render times. I currently use a 3700x and sometimes I spend hours waiting for videos to finish and I would love to decrease wait times between projects
I am here rendering videos on a 4770k lol. I intend to upgrade from it so I can build myself another 7-8 yr pc. Overkill future proofing. Gonna turn my 4770k into a storage server.
What are you rendering with in terms of programs? Most tend to be GPU limited these days which is why there's so little difference between the CPUs in Reolve and Premiere....at least in the way we use them.
If you have spare cash lying around (or time is money for you), then yeah you could upgrade to a 5900X or 5950X. But, if that isn't the case, imho you should hold out another year since AM4 is most likely the end & next year they'd release a new chipset/Mobo with DDR5 support (maybe), so that way you can upgrade all of those in one go.
Super stoked to be updating from an i7 coffee lake, I do a lot of video edits and rendering RAW codecs and gaming on the side of course lol it’s going be refreshing for another few years
That is a good use case for this CPU. I have been looking into it for data analysis during the day and gaming on evenings. I still conflicted between 5900X and 5950X for Excel as that program has some very weird multicore scaling and none is testing it at the moment even though it is the most used reporting tool in most companies.
@@innocentiuslacrim2290 interesting! I’d definitely would like to see how it handles a program like Excel. And I was torn between the two as well, but I went a head and bit the bullet for the 5950x just to have the extra value when it will come to making an upgrade in the future and future proofing myself too, I don’t do insane VFX tasks but I’d like to have the tool available if I ever need to run it through my machine since I’m in the field working with other creatives if that makes sense.
I have seen some temperatures benchmarks benchmarks/testing from other people the temperature of the new ryzen 5000 are actually similar to the previous generation just a few degrees warmer which is really cool
I mean, you can buy an i9-10850K for $399.99 at Micro Center right now... the 5950X and even 5900X are just way more expensive. Based on these results you'd be absolutely insane to buy either of them for a strictly gaming build.
@@slightlyoutofphase4193 umm, that's why u buy 5600x, which on par with 10900k on most games and even beat 10900k on esports titles like CS:Go, valorant, overwatch, etc..
One suggestion for you. A lot of tech TH-camrs will give us charts on per application/game/program performance but it would be nice to get a summary by category at the end. For example, a summary broken down by "category" (gaming, productivity, rendering, photography, etc) would really help highlight RELATIVE differences between the hardware. You can control for there respective metrics (FPS, Rendering times, compile times, loading times, etc). This would be more useful to me personally. You could even take this a step further and section the results by "use case" (rendering, gaming, photography, etc). Keep up the amazing work! 4:07 I would love to see these results after the GPUs come out to take advantage of the shared cache.
Just bought this CPU in 2024 to upgrade my gaming rig. It crushes 1440p gaming while having tons of apps going on in the background. Purchased for $369 at microcenter! I'll be extending my AM4 platform for another 2-3 years without having to pay for the new am5 platform with DDR5
Great review. Particularly enjoyed the Reality Capture benchmarks which are especially useful to see for photogrammetry. It's becoming a core pipeline for 3D Environment Artists like myself working in the games industry. Photoscans can take forever to process so this is very exciting to see!
I wish someone could do a single PC gaming/streaming CPU review. I'm strongly considering the 5900x or the 5950x but so far I haven't found a good review video
I don't think they're worried at all TBH. Not by these CPUs since this market's a pretty small one. What they SHOULD be worried about is how this will cascade down into the server space with Epyc (huge profit in that market) and downstream into the laptop market (volume).
I like the review it helped a lot on deciding weather or not I need all that CPU but at the end of the day I'm going to get the 5950X anyway for my 4K video editing and rendering also be able to game at full settings with my 3090 RTX video cards!!!
my raid zero 4x super drive has lots of room for games I have 15TB of free space still out of the total 21.8 TB of space for those four drives so yeah I am good for a while on game storage
I have a 2700x X470 system. With the 2700x it was no slouch but there were noticeable problems; frame rates in games, stuttering at times with mice attached via wired usb, just overall system seemed odd. I have the 5950x in the same x470 and not only have the framerates gone up with the exact same gpu, but the entire system is no longer stuttering or odd at all. This 5950x is really a remarkable cpu regardless if you need 16 cores or not! Also the 32GB ram that has XMP of 3600mhz would never run or even boot at 3600mhz on the 2700x. But with this 5950x it just worked at spec!

Anyway my gtx 970 that i have since november 2014 stil runs max settings 1440p 30+ fps on evrything. I will keep cpu ram and motherboard.
There could be some Simulations like CFD or FEM that may very well scale linear with Core-Count. That would be the place where you'd consider between a 5950X and a Threadripper.
@@sushimshah2896 It's a huge number of small calculations, so thinkable sure. But there is software out there that despite being VERY expensive, is not optimized ... eh and not capable of GPU-Computing.
@@miagi1337 yeah, it surely depends on the software & how optimised it is at taking full advantage of the available h/w, I was just basing my question on my limited knowledge after seeing that video from Nvidia where NASA created 150TB of data for a Mars entry CFD simulation, so I thought GPUs(really expensive ones) would be good at such number crunching
I'm looking to build my first workstation that will be doing 3D and video editing among other lower processing tasks. I can't afford a threadripper so I thought this would be a happy medium. Lol but I still have never seen one in stock and scalpers are selling them for double the price.
Haven't seen any reviewers do this yet, but exclusively for gaming has anyone yet tried disabling the "threaded" cores on a 5900X for example and using only the 12 Cores for gaming? How much further do they clock on the 5900X with decent cooling, and how does it compare in all games with the 5600X when that's a 6 core / 12 threads processor? I would love to know if there's a benefit to this in gaming as the jump from the 5800X to the 5900X isn't as costly and some of us would be willing to do it for the performance benefits, if there are any.
What impressed me the most is how close 5900X is to 10980XE, even beating the latter at times. Something to consider, 5900X is a 12 core part, compared to 10980XE's 18 core. Just impressive how much better AMD is in multi-threaded tasks. That said, this benchmark is looking at mainstream use cases. That's why you see 10900K and 5900X often beating 16 and 18 core parts. I would like to see a purely workstation oriented benchmarking video, to see how good 5900X and 5950X are compared to 10980XE. Please bring us a quad 10900K vs 5900X vs 5950X vs 10980XE workstation battle that exploits core count.
@@Traumatree there's no bubble of mine broken here. I merely wanted to see how well current crop of mainstream of CPUs scale for core heavy workloads. To see a 12 core part coming close to an 18 core part (yes, even if it's intel 18 core) can be misleading to many. Rest assured neither I do want to run my workstations on mainstream parts nor do I believe everyone fall into that category - there are genuinely poor people who can't afford HEDTs.
I got this animal for a year ago and i use alot of cpu and absolutely no regrets. Would still buy it today. The thing is an absolute monster and has just a universal performance in everything. It has very low power consumption for its performance, monster gaming performance and an absolute savage in multicore considering its cost compared to high end server proccessors. For example 1 of this can destroy some low end threadrippers, epycs and mid range xeons. Imo this cpu is the best cpu of all time so far imo. This thing offers way more than it should for its price. This is like a threadripper. Should be at minimum 1200 dollar.
I think Valorant and Horizon are just the start of a big tide of games fully built around the idea of higher core counts being utilized for game performance. After all in a year or 2 titles purely built from the ground up for next gen consoles with 8 core being the standard will start to become commonplace. That's not the only reason I plan on getting one of these but I think that is overlooked on the gaming side.
Great review once again, and thank you for sharing the lights. Your production quality looks amazing, is this done with the pocket 6K you guys were using or the Canon camera? The colors look excellent, any special advice in the color grading that helps achieve a similar look?
Upgraded from my Ryzen 2700x to the Ryzen 9 5950x for a mixture of Gaming and Workstation/Content Creation for editing videos and Game Development on engines like Unity and Unreal Engine 5, it was the only option for this situation for me since I'm stuck on AM4 unless I just build an entire new PC which I don't need or plan on in the coming years, not to mention it was on sale with the AM5 and new Intel CPUs hitting the market, hopefully this can keep up with the amount of editing and video rendering that I plan on doing as well as gaming with the new titles, only bottleneck that I might have is my GPU being a 2070 SUPER OC, but I'm also planning on upgrading that in the near future to help out and equalize with the CPU upgrade
@@jayvon3077 Honestly one of the best AM4 CPUs that you can get for both gaming and work/production balance, no real complaints since upgrading from what ive been doing, but if you're purely a gamer and nothing really more, the X3D might be better for you with it also being cheaper
@@neroxfrostbyte7461Oh okay thank you. Im currently going to uni so im looking for a high core cpu because i will be using softwares such as Houdini, Unreal Engine 5, Nuke and Maya. Ill probably be going with a 4070 ti super for a gpu and 64 gb of ram
@@jayvon3077 Congrats, are you already on AM4 and upgrading or building a whole new PC? If you are building a whole new PC, I would recommend going with AM5 instead
Would be interesting to see what these productivity numbers look like once Rage Mode and Smart Access Memory are implemented with 6000 series video cards.
Which ram do you use exactly for the 5950x benachmarks? g.skill trident z 4x8gb (single rank dimms) or 2x16gb (dual rank dimms) - this question comes right from the gamers nexus video (11th november) with the discussion which ram modules are the best for ryzen 5000
Currently I'm using a 12 year old machine with a NVIDIA Quadro 420 video card with Duel Xeon possessors. Upgrading to this in a few weeks. I think there will be a change in how much I can work with and accomplish. :)
Super, helpful. As a 3950X owner who only uses his system for video editing (Premiere Pro), I guess I will be sticking to the 3950X. if there had been a big uplift for video editors, I would have considered upgrading. Adobe will be implementing hardware decoding (very helpful for timeline work for those who edit H264/H265 footage) soon in Premiere Pro (a beta version is out), may upgrade my GPU to the 3080 TI 20GB once that comes out. Adobe released an H264/H265 hardware encoding update a few months back - sped up exporting times a lot.
Really glad they include fc6 woth the 5800x it helps with its price. But idk if im building a system to last 5 years. I expect games to utilize even more cores near the end of my systems life or my x570 hopefully the r9s drop down as the life of am4 dwindles into am5 era with usb4 onboard
4:12 - So for DaVinci Resolve (and possibly Adobe Premiere Pro), we aren't seeing any supposed improvement by the powerful Ryzen cores, is it because you are rendering in H.265, which forces the program to utilize NVENC encoder for the most part, and the rendering process don't care about the CPU much?
I'm going with it because im not giving up much for gaming but I get benefits from it for 3D models and such and also possibly setting up a home system with virtual systems I may not be the best for gaming but only by a little but i get so much uses.
Were these tests done in dual or quad channel memory configurations? Only asking because its been shown that running quad channel can increase performance of these chips by up to 8%
I think people are misunderstanding the results of dual vs quad channel. Ever since Zen 2, Ryzen CPUs have loved memory channel saturation, be it with 4x memory sticks or 2x dual rank sticks. The benefits are the same with dual rank DIMMs (for example what we use which is 2x16GB) .
Can see the 3d cache ryzen 6950X later be wonderful Im thinking of getting an am5 but will wait for 3950x/5950x to be discounted heavily sometime later
no no no silly wait for the 7950X as the first gen of a new platform is always full of bugs that get fixed in the second gen for that platform so wait for the second gen of am5 as it will not have as many flaws as the first gen will have
Youll be fine, unless youre stupid rich ,which Im guessing not by the choice of parts, you dont need to buy a new kit. I dont even think you would notice the differnce without an fps counter
Again, thanks a mega bunch for this all rounded review vid 👌👍. One thing that I have not found an answer to yet, which is not your job to provide, is that, why most game developers always go for the single core fastest frequency but not focus on leveraging multi core performance? 🤔
The rationale I've heard in the past is essentially that coding and optimizing for multicore is rather difficult. That said, with both the PS4/XB1 and PS5/XBSeries having at least 8-core chips, this seems to be lessening (dependence on pure IPC)
@@HardwareCanucks Looking forward to it! Thanks you noticed us Houdini artists. Houdini is by far the most hardware taxing 3D software I've used so far. Because it maxes out the GPU, CPU and RAM usage. That's why a lot of professionals who earn more would invest in a Threadripper to get those extea RAM that Threadripper can offer. We wonder how the Zen 3 would perform compared to the current Threadripper lineup. Looking forward for Houdini benchmarks in the future and hopefully with 3090 too 😁
@@mikakorhonen5715 Not everyone can afford a Threadripper... *950X series of CPU is a more affordable workstation CPU and the only one you can put in an ITX or mATX for me I can have at least 128GB RAM max with a 5950X if I wanted to have a Portable Workstation (SFF) which is the main reason why I wanted a 5950X in the first place. Which is not possible with a Threadripper and the smallest motherboard you can get with a Threadripper only offers Maximum 64GB RAM. Thanks for letting me know about the Threadripper Pro, Didn't know Threadripper had a "Pro" lineup.
2 ram sticks. Again I think people are misunderstanding that the benefits of running 4x sticks are EXACTLY the same as running dual rank memory that's used in 16GB and 32GB modules these days and some older 8GB modules as well.
this is the highest cpu you can get on the am4 mobos i hate the fact that i spent good money on a mobo and ddr4 mem 64 gigs all to have to change it if i want the 7950x3d and 128gig of ram. this sucks im pissed.

Can you guys do a quality / performance comparison of Nvidia Shadowplay and AMD ReLive ? the only ones i see are from 2-3 years ago and i imagine both have gotten better, both feature-wise and performance-wise.

Hey Hardware Canucks, I'm a new viewer, and i had a question i saw your Ryzen 9 5950x and ryzen 5900 review, i saw there is a diference in GHz ,Cores, Threads, what is the impact of having more Cores/Threads, is having alot of GHz good for Gaming? or Cores/Threads more important for Streaming etc... dont know if you guys did a video about that, im a newbie about pcs :(
Welcome! It really depends on the title. Some games scale really well with more cores (Valorant & COD are great examples of this) but in general most games benefit from higher speeds more than they do from more cores. Usually the CPU with the highest sustained speed wins which (along with its core layout) is one of the main reasons why the 5600X is such a good option for a gaming system.
Ryzen 5000 System should be tested with 4 RAM Sticks because as Gamers Nexus discovered you can gain up to 10% extra performance with 4 RAM sticks over 2 despite both already run dual channel.
10900k pretty much even if not ahead in most games without even overclocking... I don't think Intel is getting destroyed in gaming as much as people are saying. Definitely impressive how much AMD was able to close the gap though.
Im using a R5 2700 lol. Def gonna get this on upgrade next year. Not too good for lots of editing. Render times are acceptable but the freezing is annoying as fuck.
This is not an attack on you but I waited 2 days at a micro center and didn't have the option to buy a 5950x so please put up some link on how we can get this processor!
Throw in some CAD, scientific computing (like cfd/fea/physics simulations), and you can see the stark difference, also you will see the need for HEDT Processors.
As Linus said in one of his LAN Shows, faster ram should be used, if you're buying a 800$ cpu, 3600 is OK but for sure if you can afford that CPU, you can afford 4000+ ram.
Bios update for B450 to run ryzen 5000 series is planed for January. Not sure yet if all board will handle it or certain. If you have a B450 you probably have a good enough processor till Zen4 hits the market I would guess. If not, keeping the B450 would make sense as 500-Series-Chipset is the last AM4-Socket generation.
The only reason they saw an uplift is the same as the other Zen series chips. The benefits of dual rank memory aren't anything new and they would have seen similar benefits with a 2x16GB kit since both modules are dual rank.
It'll be interesting to see how things change when doing tests like these using Big Navi instead of an RTX card.
I don't think any changes would be seen in CPU dept. Only the GPU would get a boost and would run at higher clocks. No effect on CPU
Yeah, but remember all the benchmarks that the Big Navi beats is with the Ryzen 5000 that gets more performance of it, we need to wait tests with Ryzen 5000 with the RX6000 side by side with the RTX3000.

What are you rendering with in terms of programs? Most tend to be GPU limited these days which is why there's so little difference between the CPUs in Reolve and Premiere....at least in the way we use them.
@@roshill2010 on 4770k also, but just bought 5950X 2 days ago!
If you have spare cash lying around (or time is money for you), then yeah you could upgrade to a 5900X or 5950X.
But, if that isn't the case, imho you should hold out another year since AM4 is most likely the end & next year they'd release a new chipset/Mobo with DDR5 support (maybe), so that way you can upgrade all of those in one go.
Screw the lighting, drop the links for that fit, Eber. Lookin SHARP out here. Damn
Eber?
Super stoked to be updating from an i7 coffee lake, I do a lot of video edits and rendering RAW codecs and gaming on the side of course lol it’s going be refreshing for another few years
That is a good use case for this CPU. I have been looking into it for data analysis during the day and gaming on evenings. I still conflicted between 5900X and 5950X for Excel as that program has some very weird multicore scaling and none is testing it at the moment even though it is the most used reporting tool in most companies.
@@innocentiuslacrim2290 interesting! I’d definitely would like to see how it handles a program like Excel. And I was torn between the two as well, but I went a head and bit the bullet for the 5950x just to have the extra value when it will come to making an upgrade in the future and future proofing myself too, I don’t do insane VFX tasks but I’d like to have the tool available if I ever need to run it through my machine since I’m in the field working with other creatives if that makes sense.

I mean, you can buy an i9-10850K for $399.99 at Micro Center right now... the 5950X and even 5900X are just way more expensive. Based on these results you'd be absolutely insane to buy either of them for a strictly gaming build.

You said it. I wonder when Intel will get into high gear again? :(
One suggestion for you. A lot of tech TH-camrs will give us charts on per application/game/program performance but it would be nice to get a summary by category at the end.
For example, a summary broken down by "category" (gaming, productivity, rendering, photography, etc) would really help highlight RELATIVE differences between the hardware. You can control for there respective metrics (FPS, Rendering times, compile times, loading times, etc). This would be more useful to me personally.
You could even take this a step further and section the results by "use case" (rendering, gaming, photography, etc).
Keep up the amazing work!
4:07 I would love to see these results after the GPUs come out to take advantage of the shared cache.
Just bought this CPU in 2024 to upgrade my gaming rig. It crushes 1440p gaming while having tons of apps going on in the background. Purchased for $369 at microcenter! I'll be extending my AM4 platform for another 2-3 years without having to pay for the new am5 platform with DDR5
Mine will arrive in 2 days. Long live AM4 lol.
Great review. Particularly enjoyed the Reality Capture benchmarks which are especially useful to see for photogrammetry. It's becoming a core pipeline for 3D Environment Artists like myself working in the games industry. Photoscans can take forever to process so this is very exciting to see!

I don't think they're worried at all TBH. Not by these CPUs since this market's a pretty small one. What they SHOULD be worried about is how this will cascade down into the server space with Epyc (huge profit in that market) and downstream into the laptop market (volume).
I like the review it helped a lot on deciding weather or not I need all that CPU but at the end of the day I'm going to get the 5950X anyway for my 4K video editing and rendering also be able to game at full settings with my 3090 RTX video cards!!!
my raid zero 4x super drive has lots of room for games I have 15TB of free space still out of the total 21.8 TB of space for those four drives so yeah I am good for a while on game storage
I have a 2700x X470 system. With the 2700x it was no slouch but there were noticeable problems; frame rates in games, stuttering at times with mice attached via wired usb, just overall system seemed odd. I have the 5950x in the same x470 and not only have the framerates gone up with the exact same gpu, but the entire system is no longer stuttering or odd at all. This 5950x is really a remarkable cpu regardless if you need 16 cores or not! Also the 32GB ram that has XMP of 3600mhz would never run or even boot at 3600mhz on the 2700x. But with this 5950x it just worked at spec!

On my parts list for next gaming machine build, with 16 cores also good for compilations. Would like to see MS Flight Sim 2020 in the benchmarks.
There could be some Simulations like CFD or FEM that may very well scale linear with Core-Count. That would be the place where you'd consider between a 5950X and a Threadripper.
Really good point.
Yeah, but aren't those types of simulations better suited for GPUs??
I'm not saying that a high core-count CPU won't be beneficial though.
@@sushimshah2896 It's a huge number of small calculations, so thinkable sure. But there is software out there that despite being VERY expensive, is not optimized ... eh and not capable of GPU-Computing.
@@miagi1337 yeah, it surely depends on the software & how optimised it is at taking full advantage of the available h/w, I was just basing my question on my limited knowledge after seeing that video from Nvidia where NASA created 150TB of data for a Mars entry CFD simulation, so I thought GPUs(really expensive ones) would be good at such number crunching
I'm looking to build my first workstation that will be doing 3D and video editing among other lower processing tasks. I can't afford a threadripper so I thought this would be a happy medium. Lol but I still have never seen one in stock and scalpers are selling them for double the price.
Haven't seen any reviewers do this yet, but exclusively for gaming has anyone yet tried disabling the "threaded" cores on a 5900X for example and using only the 12 Cores for gaming? How much further do they clock on the 5900X with decent cooling, and how does it compare in all games with the 5600X when that's a 6 core / 12 threads processor? I would love to know if there's a benefit to this in gaming as the jump from the 5800X to the 5900X isn't as costly and some of us would be willing to do it for the performance benefits, if there are any.
We'll throw some intel cpu's just for fun. Lol
I had to pause and really look for this in the comment section. 😆
@@staple132 Exactly.
Intel isn't even taken seriously as any sort of competitor at this point xD They deserve EVERY bit of it.

What impressed me the most is how close 5900X is to 10980XE, even beating the latter at times. Something to consider, 5900X is a 12 core part, compared to 10980XE's 18 core. Just impressive how much better AMD is in multi-threaded tasks.
That said, this benchmark is looking at mainstream use cases. That's why you see 10900K and 5900X often beating 16 and 18 core parts. I would like to see a purely workstation oriented benchmarking video, to see how good 5900X and 5950X are compared to 10980XE. Please bring us a quad 10900K vs 5900X vs 5950X vs 10980XE workstation battle that exploits core count.
Yeah. We were surprised too.
@@Traumatree there's no bubble of mine broken here. I merely wanted to see how well current crop of mainstream of CPUs scale for core heavy workloads. To see a 12 core part coming close to an 18 core part (yes, even if it's intel 18 core) can be misleading to many. Rest assured neither I do want to run my workstations on mainstream parts nor do I believe everyone fall into that category - there are genuinely poor people who can't afford HEDTs.

Is this how the Dutch compliment others? Jesus...
I got this animal for a year ago and i use alot of cpu and absolutely no regrets. Would still buy it today. The thing is an absolute monster and has just a universal performance in everything. It has very low power consumption for its performance, monster gaming performance and an absolute savage in multicore considering its cost compared to high end server proccessors. For example 1 of this can destroy some low end threadrippers, epycs and mid range xeons. Imo this cpu is the best cpu of all time so far imo. This thing offers way more than it should for its price. This is like a threadripper. Should be at minimum 1200 dollar.

@@txtpeer5179 yea i know. i'm canadian as well.

I think Valorant and Horizon are just the start of a big tide of games fully built around the idea of higher core counts being utilized for game performance. After all in a year or 2 titles purely built from the ground up for next gen consoles with 8 core being the standard will start to become commonplace. That's not the only reason I plan on getting one of these but I think that is overlooked on the gaming side.

Upgraded from my Ryzen 2700x to the Ryzen 9 5950x for a mixture of Gaming and Workstation/Content Creation for editing videos and Game Development on engines like Unity and Unreal Engine 5, it was the only option for this situation for me since I'm stuck on AM4 unless I just build an entire new PC which I don't need or plan on in the coming years, not to mention it was on sale with the AM5 and new Intel CPUs hitting the market, hopefully this can keep up with the amount of editing and video rendering that I plan on doing as well as gaming with the new titles, only bottleneck that I might have is my GPU being a 2070 SUPER OC, but I'm also planning on upgrading that in the near future to help out and equalize with the CPU upgrade
How are you finding the 5950x? Is it performing well?
@@jayvon3077 Honestly one of the best AM4 CPUs that you can get for both gaming and work/production balance, no real complaints since upgrading from what ive been doing, but if you're purely a gamer and nothing really more, the X3D might be better for you with it also being cheaper

Would be interesting to see what these productivity numbers look like once Rage Mode and Smart Access Memory are implemented with 6000 series video cards.
Which ram do you use exactly for the 5950x benachmarks? g.skill trident z 4x8gb (single rank dimms) or 2x16gb (dual rank dimms) - this question comes right from the gamers nexus video (11th november) with the discussion which ram modules are the best for ryzen 5000
Mine arrived today, it's feeling slightly underdressed to be paired with my GTX 960 but hopefully the GPU's become available soon.
Currently I'm using a 12 year old machine with a NVIDIA Quadro 420 video card with Duel Xeon possessors. Upgrading to this in a few weeks. I think there will be a change in how much I can work with and accomplish. :)
Great content. It will be very interesting to see gaming benchmarks @ 1440p for Zen 3
Super, helpful. As a 3950X owner who only uses his system for video editing (Premiere Pro), I guess I will be sticking to the 3950X. if there had been a big uplift for video editors, I would have considered upgrading. Adobe will be implementing hardware decoding (very helpful for timeline work for those who edit H264/H265 footage) soon in Premiere Pro (a beta version is out), may upgrade my GPU to the 3080 TI 20GB once that comes out. Adobe released an H264/H265 hardware encoding update a few months back - sped up exporting times a lot.
Reminds me of the old AMD days. Freaking exciting
Whats your stance on 3700x vs 5600x for productivity? Price is same in india now
Really glad they include fc6 woth the 5800x it helps with its price. But idk if im building a system to last 5 years. I expect games to utilize even more cores near the end of my systems life or my x570 hopefully the r9s drop down as the life of am4 dwindles into am5 era with usb4 onboard
4:12 - So for DaVinci Resolve (and possibly Adobe Premiere Pro), we aren't seeing any supposed improvement by the powerful Ryzen cores, is it because you are rendering in H.265, which forces the program to utilize NVENC encoder for the most part, and the rendering process don't care about the CPU much?
Can you do a super detailed in-depth review of the AMD Ryzen 5800X vs. the Intel Core i9-11900K.
I'm going with it because im not giving up much for gaming but I get benefits from it for 3D models and such and also possibly setting up a home system with virtual systems I may not be the best for gaming but only by a little but i get so much uses.
I dont do this alot but that was a great video my guy!!!!! I learned so much and it helped me make up my mind on the cpu I needed
Lisa Su is one of the smartest CEOs around.
Yessir been waiting!!
Were these tests done in dual or quad channel memory configurations? Only asking because its been shown that running quad channel can increase performance of these chips by up to 8%
I think people are misunderstanding the results of dual vs quad channel. Ever since Zen 2, Ryzen CPUs have loved memory channel saturation, be it with 4x memory sticks or 2x dual rank sticks. The benefits are the same with dual rank DIMMs (for example what we use which is 2x16GB) .
@@HardwareCanucks Oh i see, thanks for the clarification!
Can see the 3d cache ryzen 6950X later be wonderful
Im thinking of getting an am5 but will wait for 3950x/5950x to be discounted heavily sometime later
no no no silly wait for the 7950X as the first gen of a new platform is always full of bugs that get fixed in the second gen for that platform so wait for the second gen of am5 as it will not have as many flaws as the first gen will have
I'm sitting with 16gb ddr4 3200mzh ram. When looking to get the best performance out of the 5600x should I invest money into newer 3600/4000mzh ram?
Youll be fine, unless youre stupid rich ,which Im guessing not by the choice of parts, you dont need to buy a new kit. I dont even think you would notice the differnce without an fps counter
Nope. Not at all. Optimum tech latest video talk about this exact subject. And his final analysis is you're fine with those ram sticks.
@@Vunomic Optimum did mention that 3600 was a boost from the lower clocks but not much benefit going to higher clock rate DRAM

Again, thanks a mega bunch for this all rounded review vid 👌👍. One thing that I have not found an answer to yet, which is not your job to provide, is that, why most game developers always go for the single core fastest frequency but not focus on leveraging multi core performance? 🤔
The rationale I've heard in the past is essentially that coding and optimizing for multicore is rather difficult. That said, with both the PS4/XB1 and PS5/XBSeries having at least 8-core chips, this seems to be lessening (dependence on pure IPC)

Looking forward to it! Thanks you noticed us Houdini artists.
Houdini is by far the most hardware taxing 3D software I've used so far. Because it maxes out the GPU, CPU and RAM usage. That's why a lot of professionals who earn more would invest in a Threadripper to get those extea RAM that Threadripper can offer.
We wonder how the Zen 3 would perform compared to the current Threadripper lineup.

for me I can have at least 128GB RAM max with a 5950X if I wanted to have a Portable Workstation (SFF) which is the main reason why I wanted a 5950X in the first place. Which is not possible with a Threadripper and the smallest motherboard you can get with a Threadripper only offers Maximum 64GB RAM.
Thanks for letting me know about the Threadripper Pro, Didn't know Threadripper had a "Pro" lineup.
Are these tests done with 2 or 4 ram sticks? Just asking since gamers nexus shows a difference up to 10%
2 ram sticks. Again I think people are misunderstanding that the benefits of running 4x sticks are EXACTLY the same as running dual rank memory that's used in 16GB and 32GB modules these days and some older 8GB modules as well.
this is the highest cpu you can get on the am4 mobos i hate the fact that i spent good money on a mobo and ddr4 mem 64 gigs all to have to change it if i want the 7950x3d and 128gig of ram. this sucks im pissed.

5950x is +20-25% faster than 3950x in 1080p gaming. And also faster in all other works. So price is justified.
I am glad I waited for this CPU... and I have a ASUS Crosshair Hero VIII waiting in my closet for assembly. I will be using it for 3D modeling, game development, and some gaming on the side. But now I will be able to do my VFX work without waiting HOURS.
Have you used 2 or 4 memory sticks?
Can you do test about 6/8/12/16 cores CPU not only when you playing games, but also streaming, have 10 tabs of chrome/firefox open, Spotyfii and so on?
Is mining crypto better with this CPU 5950x or 5600x 5800x is good enough? Not much of a gamer. I am deciding which CPU to get, but will get AMD RX 6080 xt
2 months after ordering, I am still waiting for my 5950x. Got the 3080 without too much waiting.
How u get the 3080 😭
Luie lol. I don’t know. Very lucky. Vendor called me and said the one I ordered was delayed but they had another that was a little more expensive that they could send out now. Took them up on the offer. Got my 5950x too now. :)
@@Genera1007 if you don't mind me asking what vendor?
Hi, How do you think guys, is it gonna be very strong for mining machine for proof of stake blockchain rig ? Can you recomend as well any good motherboard ?
When is the review up for One Plus N10 ? Hope not the only one to notice it !
Hey Hardware Canucks, I'm a new viewer, and i had a question i saw your Ryzen 9 5950x and ryzen 5900 review, i saw there is a diference in GHz ,Cores, Threads, what is the impact of having more Cores/Threads, is having alot of GHz good for Gaming? or Cores/Threads more important for Streaming etc... dont know if you guys did a video about that, im a newbie about pcs :(
Welcome! It really depends on the title. Some games scale really well with more cores (Valorant & COD are great examples of this) but in general most games benefit from higher speeds more than they do from more cores. Usually the CPU with the highest sustained speed wins which (along with its core layout) is one of the main reasons why the 5600X is such a good option for a gaming system.
@@HardwareCanucks Okay, ty for answering, really like your videos
Ryzen 5000 System should be tested with 4 RAM Sticks because as Gamers Nexus discovered you can gain up to 10% extra performance with 4 RAM sticks over 2 despite both already run dual channel.
i just ordered my 5950x today cant wait to test out the full power for myself
Thank you, I have recently installed the 3950X and seems the advantage to the 5950X is minimal.
In what areas?
@@MIchaelSybi various CPU benchmarks
@@darylcheshire1618 3950x is not bad at all.
@@MIchaelSybi Please answer how many Virtual Machines I can host on this 5950X processor, is one thread equal to one Virtual Machine?
10900k pretty much even if not ahead in most games without even overclocking... I don't think Intel is getting destroyed in gaming as much as people are saying. Definitely impressive how much AMD was able to close the gap though.
Please, can you recommend me 128gb ram kits for this CPU?
Im using a R5 2700 lol. Def gonna get this on upgrade next year. Not too good for lots of editing. Render times are acceptable but the freezing is annoying as fuck.
This is not an attack on you but I waited 2 days at a micro center and didn't have the option to buy a 5950x so please put up some link on how we can get this processor!
as a first time pc builder who wants to mainly play first person shooters at 1440p, which ryzen should i get?
$292.00 on Amazon Prime Day right now.
What's the best X570 motherboard for the 5950X, spear no expense? Coming from a ThreadRipper 2950X
Look previous video by Hardware Unboxed youtube channel
That’s some sweater!
Throw in some CAD, scientific computing (like cfd/fea/physics simulations), and you can see the stark difference, also you will see the need for HEDT Processors.
You would need too much expertice to test those for mainstream TH-cam video.
Dont see a link for that scarf or sweater you got on
yeah it's almost a fucking fashion ad
i'm waiting for the 7950x release so that the price drops for 5950x.
As Linus said in one of his LAN Shows, faster ram should be used, if you're buying a 800$ cpu, 3600 is OK but for sure if you can afford that CPU, you can afford 4000+ ram.
Would you recommend pairing that with my current B450 Tomahawk?
That would be a no no
would be a good paring though you would need to wait till january (probably) for support on the b450 chipset
I wouldn't mind waiting a few months.
Bios update for B450 to run ryzen 5000 series is planed for January. Not sure yet if all board will handle it or certain. If you have a B450 you probably have a good enough processor till Zen4 hits the market I would guess. If not, keeping the B450 would make sense as 500-Series-Chipset is the last AM4-Socket generation.
@@pasxalispetrakidis4562 why not, it is fine if you wont overclock.
do a pc build , it's been a while
How long did you wait from ordering to get this in your hands?
Just saw GN’s video of more RAM sticks squeezing more performance out of 5000 series, can you guys do a similar video.
The only reason they saw an uplift is the same as the other Zen series chips. The benefits of dual rank memory aren't anything new and they would have seen similar benefits with a 2x16GB kit since both modules are dual rank.
