Hey! We got this one out on time! AMD already introduced their fancy 3D V-Cache tech to their Zen 4 series of Ryzen processors with the 7900X3D and the 7950X3D, but this is the one that everyone is waiting for. The follow-up to their so-good-its-a-problem-for-AMD 5800X3D. Can AMD bottle lightning twice? Can they take down the mighty 13900K, the king of Intel Core processors? ...Something is making me think that Intel might be developing a fear of thunder...

I think it would be a nice touch if you could highlight the CPU in the benchmarks. It can be a little confusing with so many different CPUs at the same time and it took me a bit to actually find the 7800X3D. I know it might be a little thing, but for me at least, it would make it a bit easier to spot the CPU that the review is about. Otherwise great video!

Nah its not just you, the charts in this are all over the place. The orders of the CPUs change around and its not even ordered by fps in some of them (5:02). I don't really get it. Much easier if the CPUs stay in the same spot and we compare its size to other bars easily.

7800X3D will sell like hot cakes in Factorio community the same way the 5800X3D did - the performance boost is so massive that it allows you to scale to much much MUCH bigger factories. Also, memory latency really REALLY __REALLY__ matters to Factorio. A DDR4 2666 vs 3200 MHz made like 10-15% difference in performance provided similar CAS latency ratings. On DDR5 this is even more pronounced and could be a fascinating rabit hole for the LTT Lab.

Interesting. I'm currently looking into upgrade my PC for Starfield, and I have an Intel i5-7600K. I want to switch to AMD, in part, because I like how AMD doesn't force you to buy a new motherboard after ever CPU, so in that regard, I feel like I should go with AM5 because AM4 is on its last generation of CPUs. But I'm also on a tight budget (if you couldn't tell by the fact I still use a i5-7600K). But I'm also in a hurry to build a PC that can play Starfield at 60 FPS. Maybe my other option is to buy used AM4 parts, that way, when I'm ready to upgrade in the future, the difference in resell value isn't so large.

why do these reviews never test simulation speed? like stellaris, civ6, hoi4, total war end of turn times (maybe even football manager?)... It's one of the main strengths of this cpu pretty much no one knows about. There's a test that exists where a 5900x is put up against a 5800x3d. The 5800x3d destroyed the 5900x in stellaris speed, simulating 25-30% more days in the same amount of time. If this happens with alot of similar games, then this CPU could be a gamechanger for alot of people, but no one seems to explore this further. I still see people recommending non x3d chips for these type of games, because of "higher single clocks"' and I think alot of people are still making this mistake. Hoping to see someone test this extensively someday, but here we are 1 year later, and still no one has. edit: please stop saying "no one plays those games" FM23 & civ6 alone make up of 110k players rn on steam. That's not counting any of the total war games or paradox games, or any other simulation/grand strategy game... (which is probably another 200k+ total)

You miss an important bit with Factorio. It's a game about automation and scaling out. While it's capped at 60 tps, no matter how powerful your system, it *will* dip below 60tps once you get a complex enough map. The better scaling means running bigger maps before you hit "TPS death". Would be interesting to develop a benchmark that tests how complex you can get before that happens.

@SurgStriker Жыл бұрын

maybe they could ask chatGPT to write a script that automates the game in a predictable way to reliably ensure growth happens equally every run, then just test for when the TPS drops. Unless factorio has procedural generation (random maps, etc). I've never played it so not sure on that part

Also that was then, L3 cache (or larger cache vs. smaller) has a bigger impact later in a products life cycle. That's why the phenoms stayed relevant way into the core-i era.

I’ve been waiting years for the PC to finally release efficient CPU’s. The 7800x3d seems like the real deal. Nice job AMD! I just don’t understand how Intel has had a few years to update their CPU’s after Apple released their super efficient M chips, but have done nothing for efficiency.

@MarkLikesCoffee860 Жыл бұрын

Intel has a 62.8% market share so they dont need efficient chips. 62.8% of the world love Intel and keep buying Intel. AMD only have a 35.2% market share so they need to work much harder than Intel and produce better products than Intel if they want to grow bigger than 35.2%. The CPU company with the bigger market share will always be complacent.

@shringe9769 Жыл бұрын

Apple uses an entirely different cpu architecture (Apple is ARM, while AMD/Intel are x86); x86 chips will probably never come close to ARM. ARM has many of Its own issues relative to x86, so ARM releasing into the mainstream desktop market is not happening anytime soon. Comparing ARM efficiency to x86 desktop chips is not a fair comparison by any means.

Maybe the extra v-cache does help, just not enough to make up for the clockspeed difference. This could mean that a v-cache CPU with clockspeed comparable to its non-v-cache variants could be superior in all workloads. Maybe it just needs time to mature and fix the issues which currently hamper its performance.

@@GiorgosKoukoubagia yep I'd argue AM5 itself is a good investment, regardless of the CPU you choose. Should be supported for many years to come. That's why I bought a Godlike board and 7950X3D. Pricy, but I'm set for a long time.

This is why i wait for an entire line of products to be released/reviewed before deciding on a purchase. I’m on a 5800X right now. No need to upgrade my PC right now other than a video card, but it’s nice to know where things are headed. I built it in 2021, so it has a lot of life left in it.

I wish LTT would test VR performance. Typically, clock speed is really important.

@Cooe. Жыл бұрын

Nah. Latency (cache & memory) is WAAAAAAY more important for VR performance than raw clock-speed, which is where the X3D CPU's are absolutely KING!!! This is the outright best CPU for PCVR if all you care about is in-game fps & frametimes. Being only an 8-core though means it might not be the best choice for stuff like simultaneous mixed reality video capture &/or live-streaming if that's by any chance something that you're into. 🤷 If that's more your workload speed I would get a more core/thread heavy i7-13700K or i9-13900K if you're ok with having no future in-socket upgrade path + Raptor Lake's straight BANAYNAYS power & thermals. But if you DO significantly care about the latter stuff, than the R9 7950X3D is probably the best choice.

I finally jumped in when 5800x3D hit $319 and I had point on Prime so it only cost me points. I was already running 5900x and I popped in the 3D chip and gained 20 fps on the same game, same setting running at 1.16v and switch out for an air cooler. 3D is surely efficient and cool as long as you run PBO2.

That power usage chart hits home. I run my $555 7950x at full tilt on a 360mm AIO encoding at least 5+ hours daily, converting 2+ 4K discs to h265. I wish someone would crunch those numbers between 7950x and 7950x3d but as far as I know it’s heavily core frequency based so I’d probably not save too much power since it’s running longer.

@Matti6950 Жыл бұрын

Every last 100mhz above 4000 mhz is less power efficient on AMD 7000 cpu's. In fact allcore 4900-5500 mhz doubles the power usage, 16 all core at 4000-slightly higher can cruch it with 65watt (88 watt true consumption). A 7950x tuned with exactly the mhz numbers of 7950x3d, will use similar amount of power, but alas amd marketings it differently, plus is more protective of the 3d models cause of 3d cache, and the 3d cache makes it perform better no matter the lower clock speeds, so they dont loose in benchmarkts.

@Cooe. Жыл бұрын

@@Matti6950Actually, this is almost 100% true, but not quite. The R9 7950X3D uses slightly better binned CCD's than the vanilla 7950X, meaning the former's still slightly more efficient at the same clock-speed (needs less voltage to get there). Think the difference between Threadripper vs normal mainstream Ryzen die/CCD bin quality in previous generations, and it's much the same as this. Aka it's nothing dramatic, but it IS there. 🤷

@ChristopherBurtraw Жыл бұрын

Another perk of 3D V Cache is cost. The added cache is done in a cheaper node instead of the latest and greatest, as chip fabs have seen diminishing return on memory density when reducing the node, unlike on processing cores where smaller nodes still return gains in efficiency and power per area. This V cache setup allows higher yields AND more memory per dollar. Thanks to the High Yield channel, I learn a ton of these grittier details over there!

The cpu we were anticipating and waiting for to see the results after seeing the 7950X3D and know how the 5800X3D performs

@Maddesen Жыл бұрын

Great topic to pick up. I think your focus on energy consumption is definitely worth the talk as well. Considering worldwide energy shortage and consumption as well as global sustainability everyone talking about tech should be talking about effeciencies as well. You could multiply the lowered power consumption to an estimate amount of PC owners and then comparing that result to relevant energy/CO2 savings.. Anyway seems like I'm gonna look at a B650/7800X3D build rather than a 13600K/Z790 one.. 👌🏻

I really would like to see an improvement with your charts, especially if there are so many. It's hard to focus on them without pausing the video a lot. Sometimes low values are better, sometimes high values are better, nearly every time the order of the CPUs changes, the spacing between the lines is different each time. The transitions between the charts/graphs could be better I think. I don't know how you could achieve that because I am not a layout designer but you definitely could do something here. That would be great!

I love my 5800X3D. I will be staying with it for quite a while. The thing that I feel when playing with it now is the reduction or removal of a lot of micro-stutters. Load hitching doesn't happen as it used to as well. I do feel it in Cyberpunk 2077, it's not in the framerate it's in the input response. Turning a corner on a vehicle at 100+MPH on my old CPU would feel sluggish and those little hitches as it tried to keep up with the GPU are gone. Yes, I am a 1080p player.
