One of the possible advantages of the 14900k would be that in cold areas it helps heat the home
So true, I keep my coffee mug on top of my PC to keep it warm. If I have an AMD CPU I'd be drinking cold coffee and I'm not about that.

its probably banned to use intel in the arctic and antartica
The 7800x3d will also:
- run quieter
- on a cheap cooler
- with your existing PSU
- run perfectly fine on the cheapest motherboard.
- and dump less heat into your case which helps your GPU to run cooler as well.
You missed the cheaper ram
yeah at this point it's just a no brainer, unless you really need the extra productivity OOMPH. But honestly AMD has cpu (7900x) also for that with se same advantages mentioned.
Intel probably can be a choice only at lower price points
@Games_and_Tech they both use ddr5....
@@Alucard-gt1zf Intel needs higher then 6000 ddr5 speed(which is the sweet spot for AMD) to get optimum performance which comes at a premium
@@Alucard-gt1zf ddr4 is dirt cheap now yes. But (in my area at least) prices of ddr5 have really dropped A LOT since launch and I was able to get a stable 64gb 6000mt cl30 kit for under 200€ which is about as much as what i payed for my first ddr4 crucial 2400mt 32gb kit around 2016 xD
and you can often get really nice deals on the used market of "cheap" ddr5 ram too. this memory doesnt wear down which can make a cheap (tested) kit a good deal...

I'm in a same situation. Upgraded from 9700k to 7800x3D. FPS in crowded areas in CP2077 and Witcher 3 are like doubled! Not a big problem to cool as well.
Picked up the 7800x3D with 64GB DDR5 on black Friday and I'm stunned by the system's beastliness. Of course I'm coming from i7-4790 so I was bound to be blown away
You should be content for 4-5 years, realistically...!
That is quite the leap.
Nah , he is good for 10-30+ years, depending what he wants to do. Most ppl today are total consumers, your PC rocks

I'd also pick the 7800X3D just because it's far more energy-efficient while offering similar or faster gaming performance
@@ZackSNetworkcorrection : 14900k has same 8 core as 7800x3d, the e-cores are additional "cores"
@@ZackSNetwork In gaming it pulled lower fps and pulled 100w more. It's not just about core heavy workloads. You're throwing away money using a 14900k for gaming. There are some exceptions where a 14700 or 14600k make sense for gaming but not the 14900k.

if they are buying the 14900k its for more than just gaming. as an overall do everything cpu, its a pretty solid choice. if i was choosing now, it would be the 7800x3d because i just watch videos and play games on my pc.
True, many Intel fanboys on YT shorts omments section do that.

Steve, I cannot thank you enough for being so real and thorough with everything. As someone coming back into the fold after a 2 year hiatus and looking to upgrade my PC, I find your content very reliable and detail rich. Love the work you and your team does at Hardware Unboxed.
You upgrade every two years? I wait Atleast 6…
Purchased the 7800x3d on day one with no issues and 100% satisfied. This is the first time I have ever purchased an AMD cpu. In the past I was Intel, mostly because the Intel products seemed to last forever at least for me vs. my friends amd cpus. Thanks for all the time put in on your videos. cheers.
Man, you must be young. My first CPU was an AMD 586-P75 133 MHz. 😀
100% agree. Intel is completely lost. I was on Intel till last year, realized that company started to lose theirself. Amd just beat them on every single field... From estatics of the cpu, prices, efficiency, long support, inovations. Respect for your decision.
you're a lucky one aren't you
you best keep your underwear in a safe or they'll be gone in your sleep.
My first AMD CPU was phenom ii x720 BE 👍😅😊
@@ruxandy you must be young :) My first *x86* CPU was an AMD 386DX-40 ;) I put off getting into the x86 world as long as I could but there was just too much stuff I needed to do that required one (software availability) ;)
I was on the fence between this two CPUs and im happy that i went with 7800X3D. Something that wasnt noted in the vid is that the 3D chache seems to be amazing in older games. Im often playing WoW and noticed around 40-50FPS gain in the busiest spot in the game (had 5900X before that)
Depends on what you and others are doing and what version of the game it is (retail, classic, wrath). for examples in a hub, yes, a heavy combat scenario (raid, battleground, to an extent even a 5 man instance) and it starts to favor clock speed, not because of any fault on the 3d cache, just due to the client-server aspect . Use of combat reliant add ons that gather data such as dmg meters also tends to limit 3d cache performance advantage.
Wow is my main game and the 7800x3d has been a god send. I paired it with a 7900xtx which is overkill for wow but I play other games too. Getting 300+ fps with max settings in wow feels so much better than my previous 8700k. Staying above 200+ fps in hectic raid fights has made everything so much easier.
I've built with this CPU with 32GB 6000MT and 7700XT. The point for me as a builder was to not have to overclock DDR5 to get it running right. I will say that both this CPU and the RYZEN 7700X should be paired with a 360mm AIO if you don't want 100% fan speed when it's working hard. I built the 7700X with a 240mm AIO and it's not really enough :-(
This is some great info, so it works in older games, i'm kinda an old games enjoyer, i might give it a shot ngl.
@@beeman4266 I call total bullshit on 200+ FPS in raid on any processor that exists right now in retail WoW.
Running 7800X3D since August, PBO on with all cores to -30. Never had any issue. Power comsumption and performance is amazing. Easy choice
Yep, people forget you can UV the 7800X3D aswell and get exactly the same stock performance too
@@MrEditsCinema Yeah, i strongly advise to UV it. Easy to do it and the results are awsome
@danieljcferreira my 5800X3D runs at 95w stock and with my UV it runs at 65w max, 10c cooler too.
I actually gain 1 to 2 FPS lol, I've tested like 10 games at low resolutions and with the built in benchmarks the performance is ethier exactly the same or very slighty better
Definitely getting the 7800X3D next year and pairing with a good x670e board to last me a few years.
@@MrEditsCinema great results you have there. If I were you I would actually keep the 5800X3D instead of going for the 7800X3D. You already have a very, very good CPU. I went for the 7800 because it was my 1st rig from scratch but i considered going for the 5800 at the time. Thats how good the 5800X3D is.
I would keep what you have and upgrade maybe when they launch Zen5
@@danieljcferreirareally? It’s already INSANELY efficient with power, what do you gain from a undervolt? Never seen mine draw over 60W lol
anyone remembers ages ago when it was a meme how power hungry and hot AMD CPUs were (pre-Ryzen)? man times change
7800X3D: over 6 months old now, $350, generally better performance, power efficient
14900k: just launched, $575, performs worse in general, consumes a lot more power
🤔very hard decision (not)
not to mention the platform lock problem Intel always has, AM5 will be around until 2027 at least.
14900k will walk the dog around a 7800x3D in literally everything else productivity wise. So if you are wanting a gaming/productivity machine, the 14900k just makes sense.
Wow

Bought a 7800X3D for 3 days ago. Its a beast in price/Performance!
I have i5 4690k and r9 290 trinity x for about 10 years. I can still play modern games on medium/high and get decent 45/60 FPS in 1440p. I'm upgrading to 7800X3D and 7900 XTX in 2 weeks and I can't wait to play in 120+ FPS. One question, is MasterAir MA824 going to be enough for CPU, or should I go for freezer III 360?
You may of already done a video that I missed that covers this, but is the performance similar or drastically different when running these CPUs with older GPUs like the Nvidia 10 or 20 series?
AMD need to apply this kind of power consumption to their GPUs too
I love lily
He did on RX 6000, RX 7000 is still not bad.
Basically get the 7800X3D unless you are into other CPU heavy workloads like heavy video editing and stuff. For your average joe who just games or uses the PC for normal stuff like work and Multimedia and all then the 7800X3D is just easily the way to go.
Specifically, heavy video editing AND gaming. Otherwise, there are still more powerful options. Unless you need an Intel iGPU for specific software.
Your example user does fine wlth any cheap $100 cpu, and the 7800x3d - a flagship top-of-the-line gaming cpu - is complete overkill.
Better spend that money on a better GPU if you play games occasionally, even a 10400F can keep up with an RX6800XT on higher resolutions. Otherwise just getting any cpu with igpu is again much better value than blindly getting a 7800x3d for anything.
@@Excalibaard Just upgraded from a 10400f to a 7800x3d and the difference is massive.
it is also what it is a multimedia cpu with gaming features not "just a gaming cpu" just the fan boys on both sides are so cringe
@@PainX187 yeah totally agree with the fanboys lmao they are so exhausting.
What kind of temps have you guys been getting. Mine is getting about 38-42 cel during idle. I've only done one test on cinebench and it was going up to 74-76 cels during multicore test load.
I'm using a 280 arctic freezer ii. Fans are set at 20% @ 30c, 40% at 40c, 75% @70c, 100% @80c
Should I be seeing lower temps? I did use the high standoff points per instructions. I'll double check my mounting to see if the entire cpu is being covered or not. I'm using kryonaut thermal paste.
I would be interrested to see if the scheduler/driver improved on Win11 with the 7950X3D.
Great job as always, Steve!
I live in Norway and the price difference between 7800X3D and 149000K is an upgrade from Nvidia 40700 to a 4070Ti and still some money left. This is pro that I think not was mentioned. At least if you build a new system. Getting a 7800X3D will leave more money for a better GPU if you are on a fixed budget. For the performance I see it as pretty much a tie between the two CPUs
its not a tie, the 7800X3D is better in most games

@@vassilisxerikos3908 that is true, tho one outlier is FFXIV. for some reason it runs a lot better on intel cpus. gamersnexus has it in a bunch of their benchmarks
I’m currently in the process of looking up(that includes a ton of your vids) what ram and motherboard I should build a 7800X3D with and then you put out some fresh content around the 7800X3D… your timing is always impeccable. Thanks!
Would not bother with any X670 as the 3D chips are not good to overclock so IMO it is a waste of money. B650 are the way to go.
X3D chips don't care about memory latency. Just get any 6000 EXPO kit. I have a 7950X3D on a 6000CL30 kit myself, and even when I drop it down to CL36 I can't detect differences that are larger than run-to-run variance. I CAN however measure the difference in code compile times. But if you're primarily a gamer, don't bother with too expensive memory.
What is the best B650E or 670E board for the 7800X3D? I am thinking of Asrock B650E Riptide and for a little bit more - the 670E MSI MAG Tomahawk Wifi. I DO build to have a system last more than 2 years and preferably 5 years. I will be upgrading the video card eventually (replaced my 1080 for a 3060 12 gig earlier this year).
As someone who just migrated from the AM4 platform, it's disturbing to see that the 14900K is (more or less) the same price as a 7800X3D AND 64 gig of DDR5 CL30 6000 but not offering anything other that good productivity numbers.
Also the motherboard I nailed down is only 250 U.S (with pcie 5 on the vid card slot and primary nvme slot)
That's a REALLY hard sell from Intel to attract gamers.
What motherboard you have?
Really just boils down your needs. If gaming is what you do 95% of the time then the clear choice is the 7800x3d. If you're a single PC streamer or doing productivity tasks, I think the Intel chips are the clear winner for those needs.
Well, I guess AMD fanboys gonna AMD fanboy. When it was Ryzen 3800x vs 9900k, I recall that AMD fans, including HUB, said the exact opposite. "Why buy 9900k just for gaming when you get almost the same performance in gaming plus all that PrOdUcTiViTy performance?" Now the opposite is true. It is what it is.
Ok intel fanboy👍
@@itsmeee-ey8xv I guess that settles that then. 🙄
Steve didn't really address the need for more expensive RAM (faster and tighter) and a requirement for a motherboard with adequate VRM heatsinks/layout/etc. that can deal with the power consumed by the 14900K. The latter is a bit arguable as I doubt someone's going to use the cheapest AM5 motherboard that works with a 7800X3D because, well, pairing a dirt cheap motherboard with a high-end CPU is a bit weird, but at least you have the option and it's not a concern at all.
If you really want to you can get a 7800X3D + 32GB RAM + Motherboard + Cooler for the price of a 14900K. Wowzers.
The thing with the 7800X3D, you can get away with a cheap motherboard. No crazy VRM power stages needed since it’s a much cooler heavily binned CPU and the fact that Zen 4 InfinityFabric doesn’t need super fast DDR5 memory(it does well with 5600-6000). For $370 USD for a top of the line gaming CPU, what more can you ask for?
@@dex2531 Infinity fabric clockspeed is a bottleneck here. As in previous gen, it makes faster RAM useless. Circumventing this bottleneck was probably the reason why AMD engineers made use of those additional L4 cache in the first place.
not so accurate since the 7800x3d can run perfectly with a top tier b650 cuz its not an overclockable cpu so no biggie while the intel has to be used with a z790 to get the most out of it. compare prices between a b650 and a z790.
@@MultiOlimac That's not because it's not overclockable, it's about Intel locked OC on the non-Z chipsets and non-K CPUs whereas AMD kept letting users and board manufacturers free to decide. AMD even got rid of locked CPUs a while ago.
@@PainterVierax I’m saying it’s not overclockable precisely because of the 3D cache technology, since it’s stacked on top of the CPU chiplets it’s bound to run hotter than the non 3D version so that’s why amd recommends not to overclock it or do it at your own risk.
Built my new system with 7800x3d and 7900xtx and it is such a huge upgrade from my old 6700k and 2060. Paired with the AW3423DWF 3440 x 1440 Alienware OLED and the gaming experience is amazing.
I upgraded my gaming PC from the Intel 12900K to the AMD 7800X3D last year mainly because I play Sim titles such as ACC. The 12900K is now used for dedicated live streaming/recording/editing. Where I see the 14900K being potentialy useful is for single gaming/streaming PC setups. You can put OBS on the efficieny cores only with Process Lasso with minimal impact to gaming perfomance. As you mention AMD has 7950X3D in response, but I didn't want to have to thread manage all my games so the 7800X3D is less hassle.
Or you using an nvidia gpu and stream with gpu with minimal impact to gaming performance while my 7800x3d unleashes his full potential
I thought about upgrading my 7900x to a 7950x3d but I also do not want the hassle of thread managing. So I wait for 8000 series and hopefully a CPU that will blow away the current best.
Only reason i didn't bought 7800x 3d, is because i already have decend AM4 MB and RAM kit.
So 5800x 3d was option for me - but building from scratch, or upgrade from older generation - 7800x 3d is best option (for gamers)
Agree. I have the 5800x3D and skipping the 7000 gen. I will for sure upgrade to the next 3D chip.
You did the right thing. A drop-in upgrade that you feel and is a true boost will always win in my book versus more work and time needed for a bigger system upgrade
That upgrade is about the same as going RYZEN 7700X but loads cheaper. For a new budget AM4 build no point in going beyond 5700X. If you're considering 5800X3D then better to get on AM5.
Agreed, 5800X3D an excellent stopgap solution for AM4 owners, and still a great performer!

Did the Antec ad read say discounts on Black Friday and between the 20th and 24th of November?
Does the 7950X3D still have scheduling issues? I thought the chipset drivers and windows patches have addressed that since it launched.
it seems to be much better now, but unless you really need the extra cores for multitasking, the 7800x3d is typically faster for gaming and quite a bit cheaper.

@@talharidwan7194 Nvidia owns the GPU market buddy. AMD is helpless.
@@dex4sure361 Hello there youngster of the gaming world. I can point to at least 10 instances where ATI/AMD had the outright fastest GPU in the last 30 years. 5 years ago Intel fanbois said, what you're saying now, about AMD's CPUs. That didn't age well, did it?
AMD is expected to make $24B in 2023. Nvidia made $27B (their fiscal year ends in November). Intel is expected to make $16B. Take a good hard look at those numbers. AMD isn't "helpless". But they are first and foremost focusing RnD where they expect to make the most profit. And gaming cards is the lowest margin products (even Nvidia is only makes 35% on their gaming products), so that's not where they're currently putting their focus. They did, however, just launch the MI300X which is faster than Nvidia's current best AI accelerator. So it's not that AMD couldn't brute force a gaming performance win if they wanted to. It's that they know they won't make good money on it.
The PS5 Pro is coming up in the not so distant future, and if the rumors are to be believed it will feature Zen 5 and RDNA4. This means that AMD is focusing RDNA4 on being mass producible, power efficient and with good yields (as they are paid per working chip by Sony). What this tells us is that AMD is probably not going to "go for gold" with RDNA4 on PC, but rather make sure the +20 million console units are a slam dunk. But with AMD's current financial situation I wouldn't count out that they're slating RDNA5 (so 3-4 years out) to be the all-out, chiplet-everything, financially viable crown contender.

I think including the 5800x3D in the mix is needed. Is it worth it to upgrade? I think for 4K, you can stay on your current CPU and stick to GPU upgrades over time.
Yes. If you still have an AM4 system and a board that supports it, the 5800X3d is still a good upgrade and will extend your AM4 system longer.
Was the video released late or just the ad was delayed for the Antec case?
TechLabUK and Mike's Unboxing and How to, have mentioned having failed boot ups, stability with the AM5 platform. Failure to work after a reboot, socket stability when moving PC, CPU has to be re-seated to work again. Maybe it is a combo of board brands, ram kits, Cooler brand mounting issues? Even though many don't report having any of those issues at all.
I'm still giggling a bit, because I was planning a 7600x for my daughter's birthday build, but EVERYONE ran out of them and they all got put on backorder.
I was forced to buy a 7800X3D from Best Buy to finish the build before her birthday. Not disappointed in it though. It definitely has the chops.

Rather than clobber or nitpick either brand's CPU, let's take a minute to enjoy how competitive the two companies have been lately. Choice is a great thing to have!
This. This is much healthier for the market in the long run.
Especially that they've taken different architecture strategies so you can get a real world comparison of them.

AM5 doesn't gain any real advantage beyond 6000 CL30, it's the official recommendation from AMD itself and it also happens to be sweet spot of price to performance. Some games may perform better on AM5 + Higher Speeds + Tighter Timings, but that doesn't apply to the games they are testing here.
Intel (13th/14th Gen) have some gains at 7200 *(most ram sticks at this speed tend to be CL34-36 in latency).* There are very diminishing returns at 7600/8000 because most integrated memory controllers are crap and can never stay stable at those speeds.
*What GPU was used?* They literally said at 3:21 bro, it's the ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 4090 OC Edition for BOTH systems.
Can I make a suggestion?
With the Baldur's Gate test, it may be worth more having large explosive scenes to see how the FPS holds. Such as the goblin battle in Act 1, if you prep the area before hand with barrels to blow up etc.
I believe where we test at Balder's Gate city is about as CPU demanding as the game gets.
BG3 is a trash game that betrayed the theme of the original Baldurs Gate series anyway. Should be left out of benchmarks.
@@medejae I kinda agree with the BG3 opinion through the purpose is not to benchmark "good" games but some new or popular games and some with a different performance behavior than the typical. In brief, this is to represent a well-rounded gaming scenario for reviewing purpose.
@@medejae well that's just, like, your opinion, man
RE power usage, would love to see reviewers do some testing on how these modern cpus can perform if power limited (e.g ECO mode on AMD, PL1/PL2 adjusted on intel2). Many of these top of the line CPUs, especially intel ones (x3d ones are a bit more limited due to the limits of v-cache) seem to just be pushed to the extreme for performance without any regards to efficiency by default.
Yeah, I wish there was more on this. Intel CPUs can certainly be much more reasonably efficient if they wouldn't be pushed so high. Still don't think it will be better than AMD, but it might get pretty close.
And same on AMD. I cringed so much when I saw people recommending R7 7700 over R7 7700X because "it consumes less". LoL, it's just capped by default, but the chip itself is not more efficient. Quite the contrary, a 7700X should, on average, have better silicon, so when limited to the same power it should give same or better clocks and viceversa. But somehow nobody was testing a 7700X in ECO mode... sigh.
This has been covered in previous Alder/Raptor Lake and Zen4 videos, by HUB and others. The CPU market is just tighter than past years and both companies are now allowing their CPUs to run closer to their thermal limits to get those last percentage points hoping to take that historically coveted claim to the performance crown.
It is true for both CPUs that you can retain most of the performance with lower power consumption if you mess with settings.
@@Winnetou17 I mean, you're comparing a 4nm part to a 10nm part from Intel. Obviously by default, AMD is going to be more efficient.
The only possible area where Intel _might_ have any chance to compete in terms of efficiency to performance, is in multi-threaded performance due to the extra E-cores.
Hitting a power limit is not efficient nor performant because you're just massively downclocking the CPU with inconsistent and irregular clocks.
Truthfully, the only way to see real efficiency is to leave power consumption uncapped, but see how far you can undervolt offset, and how much you want to underclock offset (if at all).
On most Intel CPU's since Alder Lake, you can easily save 30 watts this way while keeping performance the exact same, or a 60+ watt reduction from a -100 mhz offset combined.
@@GENKI_INU To be pedantic, it's TSMC 5N (the Ryzen 7000 chips) vs Intel's 10nm++++. And Intel's 10nm is/was roughly equivalent to TSMC's 7nm manufacturing node.
So Intel is about half to one full node behind AMD on the manufacturing node used, given this 10nm is very mature. Still, yeah, unless something crazy is in one of their architecturese, AMD should win by default. Like M1 did vs the rest, just because it was on 5nm when everybody else was on 10 and 7nm. Now again with M3. And the added benefit of having an SoC. Anyway, I'm getting offtopic.
Also, it has been that the E-cores are not that power efficient. They can be if you have a very light task. But on heavy task, when they have to go to 100%, they're pretty similar to P cores. They're named "efficiency cores" for marketing reasons, what Intel really wanted to them is to occupy as little space as possible, so they can add more of them, that was their goal.
How's the stability been for the 7800X3D been lately? I saw on reddit and a few other places have mentioned general system stability issues, constant memory training issues and painful boot times, and also having to pull a stick of ram to even get the system to boot period.
Back in April when i was thinking of getting the 7800X3D, what scared me was the many people complaining about the stuttering issues. Not sure if it was ever fixed, but a lot of people were complaining.
I bet it was more common and some people probably don't even notice the stuttering but if you are sensitive to that stuff.
Awesome as usual … how the hell do you guys find the time to do this much benchmarking? It’s super impressive.
The AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D may not be 'future proof' due to having 'only' 8 physical cores. I can't even keep a straight face making that assertion. We may need a crystal ball to scry the future for any real downsides.../s It's a pretty damn good piece of hardware for gaming, and that is what it's sold to do.
The 14900K has scheduling issues, this is why there are the APO benchmarks that improve perfomance by 30% and reduce power consumption by a lot.
games can only utilize properly Intel's P cores and the 14900k only has 8 as well so they are both the same in terms of future proofing :D
Most games are going to be optimized for 6 cores cpus for a while, so there shouldnt be a problem. And there is always a possible upgrade in the future etc.
Most games uses 1 core anyways. I had a 8750H for 7 years and now a ryzen 7600 and I dont feel the need of having 8 cores yet. And I do mostly gaming and web searching but also some light video editing
Even the i3 12100f have been holding well given it's strong single core despite being a 4/8. Consoles are 8/16 with 7 cores available for games. 8 cores will definitely last a good while
Cost, power, and future upgrade potential make it hard to consider the 14900k when applying this to new builds. Great info. Thanks!
Could you do an updated video on the 7950X3D's performance in games to highlight the degree to which game support / windows support for dual CCD X3D chips has (or has not) improved since they were launched? I remember that at launch the cheaper 7800X3D was able to win a handful of benchmarks *unless* you used process lasso or manually disabled one of the 7950X3D's CCDs in the bios which would allow the 7950X3D's higher clocks to consistently win out.
I'm sure a lot of your regular viewers are wondering if the 7950X3D's game performance issues are still present 8 months after the comparisons made during the 7800X3D launch.
As a 7950X3D owner: Yes, there are still the occasional thing here and there where a game that prefers frequency gets run on the V-Cache CCD and vice-versa. But on average it still ends up in "14900k and 7800X3D land". I'm running an XTX at 1440p and I have to artificially lower settings to get it to show up. But because I'm a software developer who likes tinkering I obviously made launch scripts that ties the game to the best CCD for the job. This would have been a complete waste of time if it wasn't for the fact that I can then compile in the background on the other without any frame hiccups at ALL... Because I run with an FPS limiter in most games anyway :P
The reasons to pick the 7950X3D over the 14900k are the exact same as for the 7800X3D: It is not billowing heat out when doing core heavy work (mine happens to be software compilation). In gaming the 7800X3D wins by 130W. In core heavy work the 7950X3D wins by closer to 200W. In gaming all three are so close it doesn't matter to anyone with a functional brain. In all-core work the 7959X3D are so neck-and-neck that it comes down to other factors as well. For instance that if compiling 5 hours a day with Scandinavian electricity prices then the 7950X3D pays for it's price premium in 3-4 months while running a LOT quieter on the same cooling solution.
I'm curious to see if background tasks such as youtube, streaming and discord affect the gaming perf?
you also need a larger wattage PSU for the intel cpu. for Ryzen a good 850W for intel you would need a 1000W
:-D No. Why would you need 1000W PSU for Intel?

The Ryzen 7 5800X3D or Ryzen 5 7600 are fast enough to keep up with a 4090. Only at FullHD will those CPUs "struggle" to keep up but in that scenario you'll "only" get 300fps while the 4090 could've pushed it to 400, as if it's relevant at that point.

Another good thing the 7800x3d is that it'll hopefully inspire Intel to do better with future chips as it raises the bar and creates a new standard.
As an owner that has goes between Intel builds to AMD builds back and forth, competition is great.
What happens if you're watching a stream or a video on a second monitor, would these results stay consistent ? would the 7800x3D take even more the advantage ?

So far I’ve only cared to run V-sync 60fps, and really both were already fine maintaining those averages; what little difference I used to discern was in entirely in the minimums, the occasional stutters etc. The 7800X3D was already hard to notice ever getting dragged down, but now I never notice anything. The 5800X3D wasn’t often pulled down either, but it was slightly more noticeable. And now, well it’s basically effortless too.

@@chanceneel1 the 5800X3D is still a great chip. In 1440p or lower, no ray tracing with big emphasis on high-refresh rate, the argument could be made that a 5800X3D will probably limit the 4090’s potential for a number of games. But the moment you bring in 4K with high emphasis on the heavier ray tracing titles, which in my opinion are the only (gaming-related) reasons to get a 4090, the 5800X3D is still plenty good.
Heck I recently read a guy who had his 4090 paired with a 3700X. That to me strikes as a pretty imbalanced system, but the guy made his case that maxed-out path tracing and 4K hampered the 4090 enough that he just wasn’t yet bothered enough to get the 5800X3D he could easily drop in. It was sensible enough.

Will you be benchmarking Alan Wake 2 for results like these? Just curious!
@Hardware Unboxed i got 7800x3d based on your recommendations and the biggest problems i noticed is the slow start times before it gets in the bios
This could be due to the Mainboard. The boottimes differ significantly. gigabyte boards have the fastest boot afaik (can confirm that, my b650 Elite AX is fine in that regard)
There's a setting with the memory you need to enable, to fix that. I had it as well.
You can "fix" this by setting "ENABLE" to a "Memory context" something. It reduced my boot times significantly.
Make sure to activate Memory Context Restore in the BIOS. It will likely halve your boot time
It can do memory training at every boot if you do not turn that off. It is an issue that is not often addressed in these videos. Anyhow a brief trip to BIOS should be able to fix that issue for you.

Hi, would you choose a AM5 with a Ryzen 7 7800X3D for productivity, mainly Photoshop and Lightroom? My main concern is stability. I do hate to trouble shoot system for stability, so since the Athlon times I was always team Intel for the past couple of decades. Although I am using an AMD in my Lenovo and it does work well over the two years. Thank you!
Hi, first of all do not follow all this hype for 7800x3d like i did(, and i have been sitting on AMD since ryzen 1600, and first of all consider searching for non biased negative reviews of both Intel and AMD.
So i do have 2 systems.
My wife's system with Ryzen 7800x3d, 4080 super, 6000 mhz, 32gb corsair RAM, first of all there is really a lot of stability problems on am5 platform, first and foremost one you will notice is very long (5-30min, depends on motherboard and ram) cold boot times on most non Asus motherboards, you would also need a lot of bios tweaks to make 7800x3d work somewhat stable and at its full power, and a lot of other really small problems which most users ignore and my wife too.
Answering your question: if its only photoshop and lightroom for non-professional use than ryzen 7800x3d is not a bad choice, although IF you do professionally use Photoshop with a lot of their AI instruments and lots of layers than the performance will be far from good. As an advice you should consider buying ryzen 7 7800x3d if you use computer mainly for gaming, without background tasks, and have basic tweaking experience. If there is enough performance for you from your Lenovo notebook than 7800x3d is more than enough
Second system is mine 14700k with 4090, (i upgraded from 5800x3d), a lot more smoother, stable, colder, and less cpu power consuming than ryzen 7800x3d one (although really by a little), cpu eats 200w+ only in benchmarks, but in most case scenarios 14700k eats around 80-100w, a lot, and i really mean a lot faster in real work in Photoshop, and somehow smoother in games although have less fps which did surprise me(I did try to switch gpu to my wife's 4080 super from my 4090, and its the same, games are smoother.) But 14700k is much more expensive.

Option 1: Enable curve optimizer for all cores with a -30 value. Test stability in games and benchmarking. if it's not stable you lower the value to -25 for example. Continue to do this until you hit a value that the PC is stable on.
Option 2: Enable curve optimizer for each core. Start with a -30 on the first core and do the same process until it's stable. After the first core is stable move on to the next and dial in the value there.
Per core is a better way to do it, but will take a lot more time to get perfect. I kinda enjoy spending time with things like this, so maybe take a few hours during the christmas holiday to work on this :D
Good luck!
I have recently put together a new system with a 7800x3d and a 4090. It is so quiet! It just gets on with whatever you throw at it and, with custom fan curves, remains mostly silent. Still running on my Corsair 850w PSU with no issues. I did hold off until the 14700k was released, but we know how that went...
What about the overheating/burning issue? Is that solved completely and also on Asus motherboards?
I'm sure userbenchmark can find a con to the 7800x3d
of course there are cons like idle consumption, productivity performance or stability of the platform. But it barely matters for a setup dedicated to gaming like in Steve's scenario.
Intel where we hate the competition glueing their cores but we love ourselves when we do it.
I just signed up, I saw the video and I wondered if, having a 12900K and rtx 4090, I should upgrade to the 14900K or the 3800X3D..
Consider that I have an LG UltraGear 4K 165Hz monitor, and I only play in 4K.
Thank you
Would you be interested in a follow up comparison of both in a highly tuned setup? Buildzoid collab with tweaking?
For $350 the 7800x3D could go down as the greatest gaming chip to ever exist. Its crazyytt
I would like to see an update on 7950x3d. Any optimizations since release?
How dit you cool the 14900K ?
Great comparisons and data as usual, but I think in this case a graph for the 1% lows would've been quite interesting. In general, if ever so slightly, it seems the X3D delivers better numbers there too, and that is arguably as much if not even more important.
The darker blue parts on the graphs are the 1% lows
@@sega_kid4288 I meant a graph for 1% lows alone, like the one for average FPS across games.
