A solid upgrade over Zen 4, based on the rumors, and the AI "co-processor" (more like iGPU, but whatever) should come in handy in a few tasks. I'm expecting bigger things from Zen 6.

Great results. I'm looking to replace my old 16 GB ddr4 dominators, 2080ti rog strix, 9700k sometime next year.

For my motherboard I have a B450M Pro4. The only thing I overclocked in my pc is my ram and I feel like I can push it harder I just don't want to brick my pc somehow. I looked into overclocking my cpu but everyone said that the performance gain was not that great, Im still going to try it though.

Saving this for later. I built my current pc on a limited budget and a fairly immediate need for a new pc, so 11th gen limited motherboard for intel cpu (my preference) and ddr4 ram. Gonna be upgrading those 3 in a few months while im also building my friends pc since im not as financially constrained now lol.

I mean that is VERY over clocked RAM. I would like to see the RAM Speeds Identical and the processors being the changed option. I'm looking at upgrading from 11700k to 7800X3D. But I don't like overclocking. This video is showing me what RAM overclocking can do vs the CPUs.
I have a i9-14900k so could I still match the tuned i9-13900k if I both, tune my cpu and have the same ram, or is there something about the 13th gen that is superior in SC to the 14th?
Hi. Eye opening vid! Do you think the new ryzen CPUs that are coming out in a month or two will be better than Intel for this game? Will we be able to utilize 8200mhz? Thanks 😊
Do you have a guide for tuning PC's? I built a 14900k+4090+Teamgroup Delta DDR5 2x32gb 6000mhz on a MSI Z790 Tomahawk Wifi MAX but I have no idea how to tune it to get even close to Game Day performance, I barely match the novatech fps in same situations. Any pointers would be immensely appreciated, I know nothing about tuning and everything I find online just tells me to use XMP (which I turn on but see no difference)
Are you using something extra to cool your RAM? Or is it perhaps water cooled? I'm trying to find RAM sticks that can run at 8200Mhz but they are usually getting hot really fast, which is then causing them to throw errors, using it with an i9 14900k (The one from the description is unfortunately not available in my country)
@@gamedaytoday1 As far as I can tell it looks like the instability is caused by my motherboard, I went for an all white board, and the highest end white motherboard I could find available was a Gigabyte Z790 AORUS PRO X, but if I'm not mistaken, it looks like this board cannot run 8200Mhz consistent. I can't really get it stable on something higher than 7600Mhz 36-48-48-100 Do you have any insight on this? or do you think it's caused by something else other than the motherboard?

Very interesting videos you make, you got another subscriber! Do you think that any performance could be gained from upgrading from 64GB cl30 6000hmz to 48GB cl36 7600mhz ram on a 13900k My choice of 64GB was based on me playing alot of DCS in VR and it is very RAM hungry.
it's not using flash. it's using Scaleform which uses a file format (SWF or Shockwave Flash) that Adobe Animate (Flash) can output. You can also output the SWF file format with Adobe Flex. So it's a good idea to say that the UI uses Scaleform. Or don't. :)
unfortunately client FPS also relies on location AND server overall, for proper testing, you have to be located directly near each other ingame on same server at same time
I wish I had your skill in tuning ram. Beyond choosing an XMP profile, this is the area that totally baffles me. I’ve got a similar build to Oli, but with far better ram, but I still don’t get your performance!
Ideally I'd stick with 64gb of ram but the QVL doesn't list higher than 6400mhz for 2x32gb kits. Any suggestions? I've had bad experiences ignoring the QVL of my ASUS motherboards. I have an x670e-e.
Hi. I'm building a PC. If I go for the right RAM speed (I'm guessing, 8200MHz), should I opt for a 14900KF to play SC? It's only 30EUR more than a 13900KF and I suppose it performs better than the latter with the right memory speed?
Please do a video about how to tune a systems ram for star citizen. knowledge about how to tune a PC for star citizen is extremely obscure. There is very little information anywhere about what to do. It took me a while to even find out the ram speed is most of the performance in star citizen. I still have no idea how to tune it or what motherboards are best for tuning.
I don't have all the information to answer that question what is your tuned timings, have you overclocked your infinity fabric, have you optimised your PBO? What is your performance objective, what do you want out of your system? Are you happy with your current performances?
@@gamedaytoday1 Not really, I'm getting similar performance to the other guy with his Novatech Intel system. I suppose I should change to the exact RAM you used for this video and get the exact timings for it, then the PBO settings for CPU. 7950X3D is basically a beefed up 7800X3D so the optimizations I need to do should be identical, right? I'm trying to get up to 300 fps in space like you did and at least 100 -130 at places like A18 that usually lag. 7950X3D cache is bigger but I'm not sure how much more it will help in SC.
for my 10850к + 1080ti 32gb 3200 ram i have 240cpu points and 220 Gpu. i think it`s the best cpu for SC bc on pyro 10 cpu cores are loaded on 100% and its big cpu with no problems like e-core`s.
The 7800X3D is the way to go for bang for bucks indeed, I'd say for most people just get the 7800X3D. I'd say the 13900K Tuned is just more fun in star citizen. What you did not see here was the 1% lows see my other videos for that.
Hello. For last two day's I'm investigating this topic and found a lot of "7800X3D is the king" videos. In your materials I see that's not exactly true (mostly in lows). Also RSI Telemetry page shows that lot of CPUs outperforms 7800X3D in Star Citizen. Normally I'm playing with OC but my current setup is totally opposite - I'm using i5 12400F on ASUS PRIME B660-PLUS DDR4, 32GB of Goodram DDR4 3600 CL18, Asus RTX3080 and two 1TB 970 EVO m.2 . Only CPU intense games I play is Star Citizen (1920x1080) and MS Flight (in VR - Pimax 8KX). I'm considering upgrade of cpu or swap of current cpu/ram/mobo (the one I use would then go to my son PC - plan for his PC is next year but we can take that into consideration). What would you recommend for me? Keeping current mobo and upgrade of CPU to for example 14900K (no OC most probably on this mobo) or maybe buying 7800X3D + mobo + for example 64gb of 6000 CL30 RAM. Or maybe something else (with not changing anything included)? Normally I'm handling those topic myself but I see that you have lot of experience and possibilities regarding Star Citizen and tuning for it. I will be really grateful for advice. Regards
The next Gen CPUs 9800X3D and Intel Ultra 9 285K are coming out in the next 2-3 weeks. They are expected to be at least 10% fester than current gen equivalent based on leaskes. So my recommendation is: 1. Wait 2-3 weeks for mainstream reviews + my tuned reviews 2. Evaluate which platform that makes most sense based on your budget and performance goals (what FPS do you want in star citizen at 1080P) 2.a) Do you need to tune or overclock to achieve the performance you want? If not pick the platform as is with XMP. 2.b) if you need to tune to achieve your performance goals, you can learn how to in my discord, or just test one of my pre-tuned BIOS profiles (if you have the same motherboard) or just pick up a consult. I am increasing my price by the end of the year to $250. www.game-day.xyz In the end without knowing too much about your star-citizen performance goals my assumption is that getting the 9800X3D + 6000mhz CL30 with a B650 board would make most sense. As it would for 90% of PC builders.
I have a 7950x3d paired with G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO 64GB 6000MHz CL32 DDR5 Memory - AMD Expo on a Asus x670e strix gaming wifi mobo. What tweaks can i make to improve performqnce in star citizen?
Hey @gamedaytoday1 i love your video, specially this one. but to be honest, even if i buy PC that you recommended, most i don't know how to tune and also, I'm scared to tune my ram, what if i broke it. perhaps you can make it for your next video.
Why do you have only 32 GBs? Go 64 GB and turn off pagefile, otherwise the pagefile might impact performance, and since you have also uneven RAM speeds ...
It's not exactly surprising that a system with 8.2GHz memory runs faster than one with 6.4GHz memory. The difference in frame rates over computationally intensive Lorville is about that too (ratio of ~65 FPS to ~50 FPS is roughly the same as the ratio of 8.2 to 6.4).
Just the memory frequency doesn't tell the whole story. The 7800X3D is very heavily limited in terms of memory bandwidth because of the infinity fabric (in fact, the 7800X3D can't even saturate the bandwidth of 6000 MT/s memory). With highly tuned memory, a 14900K could have as much as 2 times higher memory bandwidth. Of course, the huge L3 cache really helps with that as L3 cache on the 7800X3D has around 700 GB/s of bandwidth, while even with 8000 MT/s on the 7800X3D, you would be looking at less than 70 GB/s on the memory. I've seen 14900Ks reaching 130GB/s, for comparison. Zen needs additional CCDs and memory channels to take advantage of higher memory bandwidth. A 4 CCD Threadripper based on Zen 4 is able to reach 200+ GB/s in memory bandwidth, for example.
@@Twidgyt Its the same, cause all Ryzen only can do Dual-Channel. And with Zen 5 (Ryzen 9000) it should be still the same, cause its on AM5 too. But with with Zen 6 we may be see Quad-Channel with the Consumerplatform AM6. :)
i wish i went amd last time instead of intel, at the time we ddnt know if the 3dvcashe or the p and e cores would be better and the amd setup turned out to be a better alternative in the end, if they make a 8950x3d with both chiplets with the stacked cashe and intel doesnt do shit im amd all the way next time
It's an interesting idea, but do you think there would be a big advantage to having 2 stacked caches? There's still a performance hit when processes have to communicate across chiplets, and I suspect that's a far bigger factor than the omission of extra cache on the second chiplet.
@@Farrister from what I have seen benchmarks on. The 7950x3d performes better with the non 3d vcashe chiplet turned off either via bios or other means in the majority of games. This being a thing while the 7800x3d performing better than the dual chiplet of the 7950x3d (in most cases) makes me suspect heavily that the whole reason the 7800x3d has a low to big lead in games overall today is almost entirely because the 3d cashe. Now imagine if we can get almost two 7800x3d's slapped together in one cpu and that would be a dual chiplet with now even bigger cache due to both chiplets having those cores instead of only one. In the beginning of the 3dvcashe era of the games such as cyberpunk 2077, Intel had a big lead but look how that turned around quick, while the Intel e an p cores mostly just gave us stuttering issues. Both and and Intel tried two new ways of doing CPUs that gen and in the long run. The test part (3dvcashe) turned out amazing so I hope they double down on it next time instead of doing it half asses (imo) as they did with the 7950x3d.
@@Lolle9999 I think the main issue isn't that the cores don't have 3D V-cache (7950X performance as an example), but moreso that any cross-chiplet communication adds significant latency. I tend not to disable the non-3D CCD during gaming because I can hook the game process to the cached CCD in other ways. I think adding cache to a second CCD probably wouldn't add much performance in current games, because there would still be a penalty for cross-CCD communication, and most if not all of the threads that benefit from the extra cache are already on the cached CCD. Maybe in future, more demanding games, there may be an advantage. So unless there was a way to truly share the cache between CCDs without a performance hit, I suspect the advantage of such a chip would be very limited. But equally I think most of us who own a 7950X3D don't want to use it quite like a 7800X3D, or a 7950X - it's kinda a hybrid for both productivity tasks and gaming.
@user66676 Oh yeah guess you are right, I just assumed it could based on the many ram options that are above 6400+. Still wouldve been nice to know cas latency and to have them tested at the same mhz and have a seperate data entry for what the 13900kf is capable of. Along with what he did to tune his ram.
This is not a 1:1. The biggest thing, as per your metrics, is the RAM. Why is it tuned significantly lower on the AMD build? That would completely skew the results.
because you cant feasibly clock AM5 past 6400 my mobo and sticks combo even though its Hynix A cant get above 6200 its the way the platform works. Even off the shelf expo 1 setting on 6000 ive seen fail to boot a few times.
@@ictr3ma255 because its a platform limit not a budget limit, intel ram is cheaper and runs higher clocks nobody would run low frequency ram on Intel. Amd you have no choice on the 7k series to run higher clocks you just wont boot or have massive stability issues. I think of it like one of the pros of Intel is it can run higher MTS ram.
@@watermelon58 we are talking about CPU comparison video, not about what someone would run. in this case, intel build shows better results because of ram, not because of cpu itself.
The tricky part of these comparisons is unless everything, other than the specific parts being tested, aren't exactly the same, the data is hard to compare. Even if he is running a different monitor, with the same resolution you are, that can be enough to throw off the numbers. If you have a lot of little differences: couple Nvidia settings that are different that affect frame rate, the mentioned monitor, other stuff running in the background like a Tobii Eye Tracker, which he mentioned before he uses. These all add up. Even the first section where he was in space. He was looking at the sun, you were not. That makes a pretty big difference in FPS.
Compare your latency to server, suspect you will find if it's the same, regardless of processor, your fps will be very close if latency difference is around 1ms, 5ms and you will see a difference open up.
@@_R8ze_ he's treating it like a game thats offline that has little to no variables thats predictable and easy to replicate. Flawed testing methodology.
tried this on multiple servers unless there is a lot of traffic in some areas I get almost a single frame per second variance I play on massive latency 180ms makes no difference at all I get better fps than most people.
Even if the AMD cpus are lacking in some capacity, I for my self running a 7950x3d and a 3090 with 128gb, I prefer a plattform like the AM5 where at least 4 cpu generations can be used with and unless Intel gets that this is a very strong arguement for customers bank accounts I refuse to buy their products.
Great video however their are so many variables in the PC world. I get better performance then OLI on my 7800x3d paired with 4090 slim from MSI stock no overclocks 32 gig Corsair Dominator Titanium Expo 2 through RYZEN master 6200 Mhz
What's funnier is what he could have reach by only spending 15min copying some random guys more experienced in DDR5 OC 6400 not so ambitious profile, he would have been within 10~15% of your system...
X3D CPU are faster when...there is no need to be and MUCH slower when under heavy load, so you are above your screen refresh most of the time when there is no need to be and you are stuttering like crazy in other places... What you should check is average FPS in cities, not top FPS in space, alone...completely useless. I've done tons of testing and intel CPU are a much better choice because of this, most of the time. Of course, you NEED to tune your memory, this is very impactful for intel CPUs, way less for AMD X3D ones.
I’d say for now it is worth it, but when Vulcan comes out you’ll have a lot more value with the cheaper cards, I currently have a a4500 gpu and I’m always like 90% of the time gpu bound with my 7950x3d

For my motherboard I have a B450M Pro4. The only thing I overclocked in my pc is my ram and I feel like I can push it harder I just don't want to brick my pc somehow. I looked into overclocking my cpu but everyone said that the performance gain was not that great, Im still going to try it though.
I'm using the 7800X3D and 4090. Do you have a tuning guide for your RAM\CPU?
I'm using 6000mhz 32 GB gskill, but happy to change it out if its worth it
Also, do you undervolt your 4090?
derbauer or buildzoid have timings for this ram ;)
Saving this for later. I built my current pc on a limited budget and a fairly immediate need for a new pc, so 11th gen limited motherboard for intel cpu (my preference) and ddr4 ram. Gonna be upgrading those 3 in a few months while im also building my friends pc since im not as financially constrained now lol.
Does it matter if you have 64GB or not? i have used the profile, but it goes to 6000 and not higher. any recommendations? I feel a bit like our friend olli
I just getting into gaming PCs, but what if you had the same Mhz on the 7900X3D as the 13900kf?
I mean that is VERY over clocked RAM. I would like to see the RAM Speeds Identical and the processors being the changed option. I'm looking at upgrading from 11700k to 7800X3D. But I don't like overclocking. This video is showing me what RAM overclocking can do vs the CPUs.
In your case if you don't like ram overclocking just go with the 7800X3D
Great video, thanks for impressive channel 🤩
Can you use the 7200mhz ram in the description section with the 7800x3d? What's the best motherboard for that cpu?
Yes you can, but you would either need to underclock it to 6200/6400/6600 or overclock it to 8000mhz for best performance
I have a i9-14900k so could I still match the tuned i9-13900k if I both, tune my cpu and have the same ram, or is there something about the 13th gen that is superior in SC to the 14th?
It’s the 14900k is a better version than the 13900K so it’s superior
Hi. Eye opening vid! Do you think the new ryzen CPUs that are coming out in a month or two will be better than Intel for this game? Will we be able to utilize 8200mhz? Thanks 😊
Do you have a guide for tuning PC's? I built a 14900k+4090+Teamgroup Delta DDR5 2x32gb 6000mhz on a MSI Z790 Tomahawk Wifi MAX but I have no idea how to tune it to get even close to Game Day performance, I barely match the novatech fps in same situations.
Any pointers would be immensely appreciated, I know nothing about tuning and everything I find online just tells me to use XMP (which I turn on but see no difference)
Yes I have a DDR5 guide that I will release to my supporters soon in my discord
Are you using something extra to cool your RAM? Or is it perhaps water cooled?
I'm trying to find RAM sticks that can run at 8200Mhz but they are usually getting hot really fast, which is then causing them to throw errors, using it with an i9 14900k
(The one from the description is unfortunately not available in my country)
Throw a fan on top of it
@@gamedaytoday1 As far as I can tell it looks like the instability is caused by my motherboard, I went for an all white board, and the highest end white motherboard I could find available was a Gigabyte Z790 AORUS PRO X, but if I'm not mistaken, it looks like this board cannot run 8200Mhz consistent.
I can't really get it stable on something higher than 7600Mhz 36-48-48-100
Do you have any insight on this? or do you think it's caused by something else other than the motherboard?
I'm using Corsair DDR5 Dominator Titanium 2x16GB 7200 CL34
@@tom_dom Oh yeah its the motherboard you need a two dimm motherboard to achieve 8000Mhz+, I trust Asus Apex only for that.

Just a lil update, since I couldn't get the 14900k stable at 8200mhz, I ended up returning all the parts.
Now I went with a 7800x3d build which runs better, cooler, and takes way less power.
It's also less than half the price of getting a 8200mhz intel build lol:

Very interesting videos you make, you got another subscriber!
Do you think that any performance could be gained from upgrading from 64GB cl30 6000hmz to 48GB cl36 7600mhz ram on a 13900k
My choice of 64GB was based on me playing alot of DCS in VR and it is very RAM hungry.
it's not using flash. it's using Scaleform which uses a file format (SWF or Shockwave Flash) that Adobe Animate (Flash) can output. You can also output the SWF file format with Adobe Flex. So it's a good idea to say that the UI uses Scaleform. Or don't. :)
Is it possible to have better performance with "old" 5000 series amd non 3D cpu?
Yes see this video here: th-cam.com/video/vYaCB8Zi9vU/w-d-xo.html
unfortunately client FPS also relies on location AND server overall, for proper testing, you have to be located directly near each other ingame on same server at same time
DCS please!!?
I wish I had your skill in tuning ram. Beyond choosing an XMP profile, this is the area that totally baffles me. I’ve got a similar build to Oli, but with far better ram, but I still don’t get your performance!
What is your Ram speed?
6400mhz Corsair Dominator Titanium. It clocks to 6600 with XMP profile 2.
I just ran your benchmark tests and getting somewhere between Oli’s and your 13900 build. Faster than the AMD in Hurston funny enough!
Another proof point faster ram is better 👍🏽
Ideally I'd stick with 64gb of ram but the QVL doesn't list higher than 6400mhz for 2x32gb kits. Any suggestions? I've had bad experiences ignoring the QVL of my ASUS motherboards. I have an x670e-e.
i assume your graphic settings are set to max right?
Hi. I'm building a PC. If I go for the right RAM speed (I'm guessing, 8200MHz), should I opt for a 14900KF to play SC? It's only 30EUR more than a 13900KF and I suppose it performs better than the latter with the right memory speed?
You need a APEX board to get 8000Mhz+ and yes go for the 14900K/F instead it is better binned than the 13900K/F.
Please do a video about how to tune a systems ram for star citizen. knowledge about how to tune a PC for star citizen is extremely obscure. There is very little information anywhere about what to do. It took me a while to even find out the ram speed is most of the performance in star citizen. I still have no idea how to tune it or what motherboards are best for tuning.
i'd love a video like that as well
what montoring software you using
CapframeX
thats a crazy performance boost considering its just a tuning. makes me wonder if my 2060 and r3600 have any extra performance i can pull out of it
Would I still benefit from faster RAM in SC if I'm running a 7950X3D and 4090 with G.Skill 64 GB 6000 MHz [tuned timings]?
I don't have all the information to answer that question what is your tuned timings, have you overclocked your infinity fabric, have you optimised your PBO? What is your performance objective, what do you want out of your system? Are you happy with your current performances?
@@gamedaytoday1 Not really, I'm getting similar performance to the other guy with his Novatech Intel system. I suppose I should change to the exact RAM you used for this video and get the exact timings for it, then the PBO settings for CPU. 7950X3D is basically a beefed up 7800X3D so the optimizations I need to do should be identical, right? I'm trying to get up to 300 fps in space like you did and at least 100 -130 at places like A18 that usually lag. 7950X3D cache is bigger but I'm not sure how much more it will help in SC.
Ok, I got it, so you didn't helped us at all here, what we need to tune on our xmp to get at least a faster memory speed?
for my 10850к + 1080ti 32gb 3200 ram i have 240cpu points and 220 Gpu. i think it`s the best cpu for SC bc on pyro 10 cpu cores are loaded on 100% and its big cpu with no problems like e-core`s.
How in the F did you get your RAM overclocked like that? Thats insane. Did you buy it at that frequency?
Base Frequency is 7200Mhz the model is in the description.
Hello, can you do a vid where you explain what Secondary and Tertiary Timings are importan for RAM tuning? pls? :-)
could make a video about 6400 timings? i have same setup 7800x3d/4090 64gb dual rank 6600 kit
Amazing work. The 7800x3D is the best bang for your dollar but there is clearly faster gameplay when money is not a concern :).
The 7800X3D is the way to go for bang for bucks indeed, I'd say for most people just get the 7800X3D. I'd say the 13900K Tuned is just more fun in star citizen. What you did not see here was the 1% lows see my other videos for that.
Hello. For last two day's I'm investigating this topic and found a lot of "7800X3D is the king" videos. In your materials I see that's not exactly true (mostly in lows). Also RSI Telemetry page shows that lot of CPUs outperforms 7800X3D in Star Citizen. Normally I'm playing with OC but my current setup is totally opposite - I'm using i5 12400F on ASUS PRIME B660-PLUS DDR4, 32GB of Goodram DDR4 3600 CL18, Asus RTX3080 and two 1TB 970 EVO m.2 . Only CPU intense games I play is Star Citizen (1920x1080) and MS Flight (in VR - Pimax 8KX). I'm considering upgrade of cpu or swap of current cpu/ram/mobo (the one I use would then go to my son PC - plan for his PC is next year but we can take that into consideration). What would you recommend for me? Keeping current mobo and upgrade of CPU to for example 14900K (no OC most probably on this mobo) or maybe buying 7800X3D + mobo + for example 64gb of 6000 CL30 RAM. Or maybe something else (with not changing anything included)? Normally I'm handling those topic myself but I see that you have lot of experience and possibilities regarding Star Citizen and tuning for it. I will be really grateful for advice. Regards
The next Gen CPUs 9800X3D and Intel Ultra 9 285K are coming out in the next 2-3 weeks.
They are expected to be at least 10% fester than current gen equivalent based on leaskes.
So my recommendation is:
1. Wait 2-3 weeks for mainstream reviews + my tuned reviews
2. Evaluate which platform that makes most sense based on your budget and performance goals (what FPS do you want in star citizen at 1080P)
2.a) Do you need to tune or overclock to achieve the performance you want? If not pick the platform as is with XMP.
2.b) if you need to tune to achieve your performance goals, you can learn how to in my discord, or just test one of my pre-tuned BIOS profiles (if you have the same motherboard) or just pick up a consult. I am increasing my price by the end of the year to $250. www.game-day.xyz
In the end without knowing too much about your star-citizen performance goals my assumption is that getting the 9800X3D + 6000mhz CL30 with a B650 board would make most sense. As it would for 90% of PC builders.

Thank You
Why do you have only 32 GBs? Go 64 GB and turn off pagefile, otherwise the pagefile might impact performance, and since you have also uneven RAM speeds ...
It's not exactly surprising that a system with 8.2GHz memory runs faster than one with 6.4GHz memory. The difference in frame rates over computationally intensive Lorville is about that too (ratio of ~65 FPS to ~50 FPS is roughly the same as the ratio of 8.2 to 6.4).
Just the memory frequency doesn't tell the whole story. The 7800X3D is very heavily limited in terms of memory bandwidth because of the infinity fabric (in fact, the 7800X3D can't even saturate the bandwidth of 6000 MT/s memory). With highly tuned memory, a 14900K could have as much as 2 times higher memory bandwidth. Of course, the huge L3 cache really helps with that as L3 cache on the 7800X3D has around 700 GB/s of bandwidth, while even with 8000 MT/s on the 7800X3D, you would be looking at less than 70 GB/s on the memory. I've seen 14900Ks reaching 130GB/s, for comparison. Zen needs additional CCDs and memory channels to take advantage of higher memory bandwidth. A 4 CCD Threadripper based on Zen 4 is able to reach 200+ GB/s in memory bandwidth, for example.
@@cpt.tombstonereally appreciate this explanation
@@cpt.tombstonewhat about the 7900x3d on the zen 5? Is the memory bandwidth better there?
@@Twidgyt Its the same, cause all Ryzen only can do Dual-Channel.
And with Zen 5 (Ryzen 9000) it should be still the same, cause its on AM5 too.
But with with Zen 6 we may be see Quad-Channel with the Consumerplatform AM6. :)
i wish i went amd last time instead of intel, at the time we ddnt know if the 3dvcashe or the p and e cores would be better and the amd setup turned out to be a better alternative in the end, if they make a 8950x3d with both chiplets with the stacked cashe and intel doesnt do shit im amd all the way next time
It's an interesting idea, but do you think there would be a big advantage to having 2 stacked caches? There's still a performance hit when processes have to communicate across chiplets, and I suspect that's a far bigger factor than the omission of extra cache on the second chiplet.
@@Farrister from what I have seen benchmarks on.
The 7950x3d performes better with the non 3d vcashe chiplet turned off either via bios or other means in the majority of games.
This being a thing while the 7800x3d performing better than the dual chiplet of the 7950x3d (in most cases) makes me suspect heavily that the whole reason the 7800x3d has a low to big lead in games overall today is almost entirely because the 3d cashe.
Now imagine if we can get almost two 7800x3d's slapped together in one cpu and that would be a dual chiplet with now even bigger cache due to both chiplets having those cores instead of only one.
In the beginning of the 3dvcashe era of the games such as cyberpunk 2077, Intel had a big lead but look how that turned around quick, while the Intel e an p cores mostly just gave us stuttering issues.
Both and and Intel tried two new ways of doing CPUs that gen and in the long run. The test part (3dvcashe) turned out amazing so I hope they double down on it next time instead of doing it half asses (imo) as they did with the 7950x3d.
@@Lolle9999 I think the main issue isn't that the cores don't have 3D V-cache (7950X performance as an example), but moreso that any cross-chiplet communication adds significant latency. I tend not to disable the non-3D CCD during gaming because I can hook the game process to the cached CCD in other ways. I think adding cache to a second CCD probably wouldn't add much performance in current games, because there would still be a penalty for cross-CCD communication, and most if not all of the threads that benefit from the extra cache are already on the cached CCD. Maybe in future, more demanding games, there may be an advantage. So unless there was a way to truly share the cache between CCDs without a performance hit, I suspect the advantage of such a chip would be very limited. But equally I think most of us who own a 7950X3D don't want to use it quite like a 7800X3D, or a 7950X - it's kinda a hybrid for both productivity tasks and gaming.
@@Farristertrue.
That could also likely be a limiting feature.
Why didnt you test the r7 7800x3d and 13900kf with the same ram speeds? Feel like you wouldve seen better numbers on the ryzen.
Sure. And disable the cache on the 7800X3D as well then i guess? Or just compare the 13900k with a 7700x.
because the 7800x3d runs with 8400 ram speeds. sure
Because the ryzen doesnt run on those ram speeds /facepalm
@user66676 Oh yeah guess you are right, I just assumed it could based on the many ram options that are above 6400+. Still wouldve been nice to know cas latency and to have them tested at the same mhz and have a seperate data entry for what the 13900kf is capable of. Along with what he did to tune his ram.
Ollie catching strays lol
What resolution is this at?
Settings is 1440p all settings at High.
This is not a 1:1. The biggest thing, as per your metrics, is the RAM. Why is it tuned significantly lower on the AMD build? That would completely skew the results.
because you cant feasibly clock AM5 past 6400 my mobo and sticks combo even though its Hynix A cant get above 6200 its the way the platform works. Even off the shelf expo 1 setting on 6000 ive seen fail to boot a few times.
@@watermelon58 why not to use 13900 with lower ram then?
@@ictr3ma255 because its a platform limit not a budget limit, intel ram is cheaper and runs higher clocks nobody would run low frequency ram on Intel. Amd you have no choice on the 7k series to run higher clocks you just wont boot or have massive stability issues. I think of it like one of the pros of Intel is it can run higher MTS ram.
@@watermelon58 we are talking about CPU comparison video, not about what someone would run. in this case, intel build shows better results because of ram, not because of cpu itself.
The tricky part of these comparisons is unless everything, other than the specific parts being tested, aren't exactly the same, the data is hard to compare. Even if he is running a different monitor, with the same resolution you are, that can be enough to throw off the numbers. If you have a lot of little differences: couple Nvidia settings that are different that affect frame rate, the mentioned monitor, other stuff running in the background like a Tobii Eye Tracker, which he mentioned before he uses. These all add up.
Even the first section where he was in space. He was looking at the sun, you were not. That makes a pretty big difference in FPS.
Compare your latency to server, suspect you will find if it's the same, regardless of processor, your fps will be very close if latency difference is around 1ms, 5ms and you will see a difference open up.
Not sure what you mean
@@gamedaytoday1 Look at your Latency!! No one server is going to be alike , so seeing large FPS swings is something very common in Star Citizen.
@@Killswitch1411 exactly, all of these evaluations are apples to oranges unless you can compare latency
@@_R8ze_ he's treating it like a game thats offline that has little to no variables thats predictable and easy to replicate. Flawed testing methodology.
tried this on multiple servers unless there is a lot of traffic in some areas I get almost a single frame per second variance I play on massive latency 180ms makes no difference at all I get better fps than most people.
Even if the AMD cpus are lacking in some capacity, I for my self running a 7950x3d and a 3090 with 128gb, I prefer a plattform like the AM5 where at least 4 cpu generations can be used with and unless Intel gets that this is a very strong arguement for customers bank accounts I refuse to buy their products.
as i said in previous video... i getting more FPS with 7800x3d with 4080, gskill 6000cl30 not tuned, than u... not mention that Ollis build...

What's funnier is what he could have reach by only spending 15min copying some random guys more experienced in DDR5 OC 6400 not so ambitious profile, he would have been within 10~15% of your system...
Wow
X3D CPU are faster when...there is no need to be and MUCH slower when under heavy load, so you are above your screen refresh most of the time when there is no need to be and you are stuttering like crazy in other places...
What you should check is average FPS in cities, not top FPS in space, alone...completely useless.
I've done tons of testing and intel CPU are a much better choice because of this, most of the time. Of course, you NEED to tune your memory, this is very impactful for intel CPUs, way less for AMD X3D ones.
i'd be happy with 60fps lol
Even my 2080 Ti and 9900k get higher frames than Olli's rig, albeit at 1080p.
All this shows me is the 4090 is not worth the price when lower end cards compare. It’s all cpu in SC.
((fornow)), but then again with 5090 around the corner might as well hold out for that
I’d say for now it is worth it, but when Vulcan comes out you’ll have a lot more value with the cheaper cards, I currently have a a4500 gpu and I’m always like 90% of the time gpu bound with my 7950x3d
4090 isnt worth the price if you're playing SC in its current state.
