[@chriswright8074]

Happy for you

[@innocentiuslacrim2290]

You need a very powerful GPU (at least 3080 level) and low resolution to see any difference between the 5800 vs 3800. Even then you will most likely notice it only if you have a fps counter running.

[@JohnPamplin]

@@innocentiuslacrim2290 Yes, and it's my intention to add an RTX 4000 series to this rig when it's available. I think AMD will be offering 3D cache on later gen CPUs going forward, so app/game support for higher cache might become the norm.

[@fredsas12]

Doing the same. This CPU is going in my living room HTPC (current 5800X) due to PCMR regulations requiring "The one box to rule them all" because emulation likes fast CPUs over GPUs. So I have this position where my living room PC has the fastest CPU, while the mancave PC has the fastest GPU (current 3800X).

Glad you benched the AMD systems with PBO enabled. It's just a much more realistic scenario for comparison.

It was originally something I decided to do in order to take a slightly different approach towards my 12900K/12600K reviews, but I feel like if you're going to drop $150+ on an AIO cooler why wouldn't you be turning on stuff like PBO/MCE

[@Carrinthe]

@@paulshardware Exactly, but not only with an AIO. I run a 5950X with an BeQuiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 and if I leave it on stock temperatures stay well below 70C during benchmarks, leaving a lot of room for improvement. With PBO enabled and playing a bit with a negative curve optimizer setting my Cinebench R23 multi score is 29287, with cpu temperatures around 85C.

[@theholt2ic219]

It’s honestly the only way you should. PBO is on by default or set to auto. Similar to how Intel has let’s you unlock the power limit or turbo boost. I’ve seen a lot of the benchmark has intel with turbo boost and power limit Unlocked and PBO turned off. I’m like is that really how you are going to compare these CPUs? Only Paul and Steve accurately compare and benchmark these brands of CPUs.

I'll say just one thing: I am subscribed to all the other major channels but yours was the only review I was compelled to click on and watch in its entirety. Out of all of them, for some reason you are the one whose opinion I value the most. You just have a way of presenting the logic of your tests and why one should or should not opt to buy the new piece of hardware that is superior, at least in my eyes. So, all in all, it was worth the wait.

[@pivotman1121]

Awesome content! My desktop started life with a 2700x and a vega 64, I've since upgraded the same system to a 3600xt and a 2080ti ftw3 and I just ordered a 5950x. I'll probably move to another platform next generation for my gaming desktop and move this cpu into my server since 16 cores and 32 threads clocked that well should last me in a server basically forever. And in the meantime it's still a meaningful uplift over my 3600xt which while running other processes in the background feels a little anemic at times.

[@highlanderknight]

Impressive. Impressive in showing how important the amount of cache can be in boosting performance. Hopefully manufacturers can work this I to newer CPUs to boost performance.

Love the benchmarks, I've been rocking a 5900x sinse shortly after launch. But my brother is has a 3800x and is considering the 5800x3D, but given how MSRP continues to fall he will likely wait until AM5 and see if it's worth the $ to upgrade the platform.

And the reality is, by the time AM5 is here the prices of these CPUs will be even lower. Honestly, considering the release timeframe, this is probably the worst time to buy a CPU if you're upgrading: we're roughly 4-5 months from the expected release and the price WILL go down. Especially on something like the X3D, where it's probably going to look fairly weak compared to the 7000-series and it's currently riding on the high of being new and cool.

[@BeeWhere]

@@rustler08 AMD has been consist about dropping prices over time. I actually got a 5600x on launch and used if for a few months. I knew I could wait and get a 5900x later for cheaper but when my my 5900x order finally shipped I wa threw it and never looked back. I was upgrading from an i5 3570k so I justified the cost because I keep my computers for a long time and I had been budgeting for a solid upgrade.

Nice overview, and nuanced conclusion. What I would like to see is the suggestion for a someone with a mid tier gpu. Should they upgrade to a 5800x3d or upgrade to a 5600X and spend the extra money on upgrading the GPU. I think upgrading to the 5600x and spending the rest of a GPU upgrade would give more fps. To me the 5800x3d is only a consideration for even gaming only use cases if you've nearly maxed the GPU.

[@TheScandro1d]

Currently i am using the Ryzen 9 5950X in my Main-Rig. I thought about using the 5800X3D in this rig because i like the position that the 5800X3D has.

I bought a 5900x for ~$300 (was $400 but had a $100 in points). I do a little more than just gaming and plan on using this until the 2nd gen AM5 CPU's (to also allow DDR5 to come down in pricing). I heard around that the 5800x 3D is going for a bit above MSRP, so for me to get the 5900x for well under $150 less than this new chip, I feel quite good about it. The 5900x has been a nice bump from the 3700x I was rocking since it launched. Great review though! Sorry about the lame issues in testing.

[@Terrados1337]

thanks for the review :) I think it's hard to find a final verdict on this CPU. What games do you play? what are you typically using while gaming (discord, youtube, etc)? AMD showed the potential of their new cache technology and to me atleast it seems like a nice finale for AM4.

[@Safetytrousers]

If you were CPU encoding with OBS is a not unlikely scenario.

[@Angel7black]

Its not worth unless you have something as fast as a 3090 ti. And if you have a 3090 Ti Idk why you wouldnt have a 12700K/12900K or 5900X/5950X, moving from any of those to a 5800X is stupid. Its bad value for something that at best rivals a 12700K/12900K. Something tbh Zen 3 already did, and does cheaper

Watched to the end... Looking forward to those 3090 ti Sli benchmark tests! 👍😎🍻

[@MaxxKoggen]

13:14 chart makes a bigger arguement for the 12600K than it does for the 5800X3D. Granted 12th is a new platform vs a drop in replacement, but still. Great PoC by AMD though

Whoa the colors in this video are INTENSE

[@norgeek]

Yeah, replacing the cables wouldn't even have been on the troubleshooting top-50 list for me 😶

[@Channelgiron]

I Appreciate Your Hard-work, And Dedication. 👍

[@ArndBrugman]

Great to see it compared to 5800x and 5900x as these are on sale on release day of the 3Dvc. Thx!

Hi Paul, please dont stress out over longer upload times. Could you please provide further game testing in a follow-up, like other channels did? Please make sure to include Warzone, it is a game that is quite poorly optimized for pc but made for an 8-core-console-cpu.

[@NevermintDebs]

Cheers good sir, thanks for the video. All good things come to those whom wait.

Upgrading my rig to AMD from the i7 8086k, got the 5900x for $369.99(Micro Center). Indeed, AMD has come a long way since my last AMD rig a decade ago, a real testament to allowing competitors to survive.

The last comment about AM4 platform's last hurrah had me sad... as someone daily driving ryzen 5 3500 from 2020 with rtx 2070 super -- and no hitches whatsoever - Quite a remarkable platform AM4 was to last from 2017 to 2021/22 and still keep up so well

Think your videos are best served both hot and cold and anywhere in between. No worries about being late you have always professional provided us with expertly crafted tech videos. Cheers!

[@babatundeolowu]

Thanks as always for all the hardwork Paul. Stay blessed

[@utmichael2008]

Love your videos; one small bit of feedback for your benchmarks: Can you put "higher is better" for the scores and "lower is better" for the times? This would make them a lot easier to digest as the slides go by.

[@thetg2117]

that's OK Paul, I'm about 5 months late watching this review

[@jeremybarber2837]

It's been interesting to see the range of testing. It does excite me for what AM5 will bring.

[@declan_cali]

Ever hit the thumbs up before even watching the content? Just so you don't ever forget? Paul's the only one..Every video, every time! Keep em comin' man!

This Processor via BLCK + voltage suspension can be Overclocked , but this is a bit harder compare to usual easy way.
