I've had a pretty good gaming experience on my 7950x3d aside from getting TWO defective motherboards in a row. One MSI and one ASUS. Once I got things up and running the performance has been great and the user experience has been fine. I've only had time to play some games in my library but the performance in game has been exceptional so far. I haven't had to mess with anything for core affinity. Game bar has mostly been doing its job handling that for me. Its paired with an RTX 4090 and 64GB of 6000MHz CL 30-36-36-36-96 ram and it has no issues except in Elden Ring which I am convinced is cursed because it randomly hitches on every PC I own. I gave up troubleshooting that game because every single other game I have runs flawlessly. Elden ring loves to hitch about 1-3 times an hour but I'm convinced it is the game not my rig at this point.

Best CPU as of now is 7950X3D. 7800X3D loses in some modern titles. 14900K is a joke compared to these X3D's. In terms of gaming of course but if you are an Intel fanboy and want to pay more and draw more power knock yourself out. I have to say 7950X3D is still power efficient and sits right in the middle between 7800X3D and 14900K but you get twice more multi core performance vs 7800X3D useful for streamers, video editors etc. Haven't bought a CPU yet? wondering if to go with 7800X3D or 7950X3D or perhaps the next gen Zen 5 Ryzen 9000 CPU's ? I would personally wait because Zen 5 is going to release soon, by soon I mean in the next 3-4 months and X3D's in 2025 April/May. Ryzen 9000 will without doubt have slightly more cache and higher clocks but if you wonder if they will beat the previous gen X3D, YES!! 5800X3D is equivalent to 7700X and 7800X3D is equivalent of 9700X. While 9900X will beat the 7800X3D by 25-40 fps and newest X3D's well those will be much higher frames then 7800X3D/14900K. Keep in mind Arrow Lake is coming out too and it will beat Zen 5 aka Ryzen 9000 but it won't beat the Ryzen 9000 X3D's especially 9950X3D. 9950X3D is rumored to have twice more cache and is on both CCD's. Eventually rest of the benchmarks will be neck and neck gaming wise, other tasks/applications might run faster on Arrow Lake but here is the thing why would anyone buy Intel when AMD offers better efficiency/performance.. Number don't lie too high power draw CPU in 2024 is a shame, I do still pick a slightly slower performance CPU with being twice more efficient. ANYDAY!

The best part of the video was the last 3 minutes! TYC gives you all the information and then puts everything in context. Setting games to 1080p on ultra settings tells you everything you need to know about gaming in 2024. My recommendation for choosing gaming system would be to start with the monitor's resolution and refresh rate. Once that is done, add 20% (for a bit of future proofing) and select your graphics card. The rest of the components just need to keep the graphics card fed. Again, this is just for a gaming system.

Brian! For 7950x3D , you need to make sure that the game is ONLY using the x3D chip. This way, it can be faster than 7800x3D Here's how. Prior to game launch, you need to manually assign which CPU Threads the game will run on. But in this video, it seems that you leave it at default. This is because not all Physical cores inside 7950x3D is connected to the 3DV-Cache . So when you manually assign the game to run on the Cores that can access 3DV-Cache, all other background tasks are automatically using the regular Cores. So it will be faster than 7800x3D Yes I'm talking about all games

Is this using something like Process Lasso to handle the Core/Affinity assignment for games ? Task Manager can do this, but most people forget to switch it manually as you have to go in each time to change it. Something like Proc Lassoo is more automatic, and handles priority/IO and pushes background tasks into more aggressive idle states. I've seen it used for setting/moving Spotify / KZbin and web browsers into Idle/Efficiency, tagging games into a power profile automatically, so games get a Freq Boost properly. Apparently you can also set up a command line / shortcut to the game, using "Start /affinity 4B Game.exe" as long as you know/calculate which mask value matches your CPU's cores. You can also run the same using Nirsoft Nircmd, which can apply an affinity change to active programs, i.e. setting up a batch file or shortcut to run the command manually after the game launches.

Previously I had a 11900K with a cheap motherboard, the 11900K was running 15-20% worse than expected stock score because the motherboard cannot deliver the voltage it needs, I had to undervolt and manually set all the other values to just make it run stock, the 240mm AIO I had was also struggling to cool it at high core speed. With 7800X3D, it draws so little power/voltage, I don't need an extravagant motherboard to make it run well, 240mm AIO for cooling is pretty much an overkill after undervolting it with no performance loss

Upgrading from i7 9700f to 7800x3d and from 2060 super to 4070 super. Would that be sufficient enough for 360hz? Asking cause you said you are a gamer for 25+ years.

i regret my i9 14900kf, but i did learn a lot about undervolting to extend the life of my cpu. i got my i9 before the instability issue was wide spread. Back in feb 2024, people were saying the i9 14900k was more stable than AMD. that aged like fine milk.

All these reviews should be followed with . I dont care that the cray2 supercomputer is the best if it costs 1 trillion. I have a 7800X3D running on a B650 MB and slapped a spare AM3 air cooler on it, Gammax something or other. Temps are perfect. Pretty great. dont have to upgrade PSU or cooling or anything stupid. Plus saved cash by using 5600MHz RAM cos the large cache makes memory speed less sensitive as it has to do less trips to RAM.

[@dianaalyssa8726]

Still on main 12900KF 4090, raids like a champ. Everything is performing great but AM5 surely would be the choice today. I scored great deals when I built but I'm not touching the newer i7/i9s with game instability issues. Everything is running great on Steam with Nobara Linux 39 (KDE), though I still have spare Windows installs around 10/11, don't miss 11. Have a 7800XT and 7900XTX this gen, probably should have spent extra to go AM5 last year but oh well. I can carry my DDR5 forward and well 7800X3D is a great cpu here, 7950X3D if only both CCDs had 3D vcache, if there's a 9950X3D with that, that would be amazing.

[@likobeatshodge9800]

If both ccds had 3d vcache it would perform as well at multitasking, and it didn't improve the gaming amd said. U can handle games with the xbox game bar though kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqjHgqOMmLGSl5Yfeature=shared

Seriously.. Who plays games in 1080p and why? In 2024, most should be playing at 4k. I'm still rocking a 9900k with a 4090 at 4k. The CPU doesn't matter much at 4k. Ya, I know, I could squeeze another 10-20 fps with a 14900k, but I'm already over 100fps with everything maxed out , so what's the point. Now, when the new CPU's come out, I might look into upgrading.

[@thenutburglar7923]

if you set the 7950x3d to let driver decide instead of cache, using xbox game bar does this for you, no bios changing needed. if a game is running on the wrong cores, you can go to the setting for the application, and set as game in xbox game bar. I have one an don't run into issues, unless its me being dumb. The only thing is if you try to increase the frequencies in the bios, it will make the theoretical speed of the Vcache CCD the same speed and make everything run the that until they are full.

[@christophermullins7163]

We need to petition to have the United nations officially crown the 7800x3d the best gaming GPU so these Intel fanboys stop spreading lies to validate their 300watt CPUs. To me.. it is incredibly obvious that 7800x3d is best. Crazy Intel fanboyism in this world we live in.

[@marxerr]

I believe 7950x3d is best choice for me, because I run a lot of simulation games as well as more traditional like fps. Eg 7800x3d will never run minecraft as close to something like the 7950x3d or 14900k

install drivers with ddu; make sure on ddu programm go to settings right below to set the option , windows does not install latest drivers, downcloack cpu to max 5.4 ghz and agent voltage to 1.15 done

[@djpquickplays1244]

Although I agree instability is a big no no, comparing results with a cpu that is proven to be unstable on the settings you are using is not fair or genuine. Performance will certainly suffer if there is instability, even if it does not crash. My 14700k has taught me that much. I have no preference for either cpu, they both have their own strong points for sure, but I feel you should have tuned the intel clocks, voltage and ram to the best possible settings as that what everyone who buys a 14900k does. A 7800x 3d is virtually unaffected by ram speed and doesn't oc at all really but you should have shown both at their best, or at least on stable settings.

[@Dave-dh7rt]

Seen several people in this comment section say the 14900K is faster and stable. Did they even watch the video??? Also, 1 in 3 14900Ks are unstable, that was tested by a media outlet. Also, the 14900K is 7% slower than the 7800X3D, these people are on crack.

I have a 8086k and looking to upgrade...but people saying to go to am5 but the pricing is a bit much a decent cpu and a decent motherboard with enought sata slots and then ddr5 memory, part of me thinks am4 ...save money on memory as can use my own, a decent motherboard and a massive upgrade with 5800x3d and while it may limit upgrades i only tend to upgrade every 4 to 5 years

[@betag24cn]

if you really like intel, get a i5 or a i7 and you will be fine, avoid all i9, it is a total disaster as a amd fanboy, if you can go for the 7800, you will be just fine for at least 4 years, if not more

[@blkspade23]

You shouldn't need to force the prefer cache option on the 7950X3D because the driver will do that for games in conjunction with Xbox Game bar when a game is detected or manually flagged. The need for that driver is autodetected when you install the chipset drivers and have the R9 installed at the time. If you just swapped the R7 out for the R9, you would've never installed that driver in the first place. Forcing it in the BIOS just makes everything use the X3D CCD resulting in every other lightly threaded task being 8-12% slower.

[@BadRusMan]

Still rocking my 5800x3d tuned + 4090 and have no issues in 1440. Skipping 7800x3d and probably gonna take 9800x3d or if intel shows smth interesting that would be supported for a long time - would consider that.

[@MohamadYoussef-kc5fs]

Just built my first PC for my son and combined a 7800x3D with 7900 GRE, 32gb 6400 MHz CL32 for a great combination without being overkill and overpriced for 1k more on a 4090 as it's used for 1440 240hz monitor. I think its future proofed for next 5 years but maybe upgrade GPU when next gen of GPUs are released. Without over clocking it performs great. It's a $2.7k AUD build ($1.8k USD) cost overall.

if you have that cpu, i dont see a reason to upgrade for at least 2 more years, that is a really good cpu

[@Wushu-viking]

I would say, the best gaming CPU is one that works in all games. So that makes th competition down to two. The 7800X3D is clearly best Value for gaming, and maybe has better performance due to all 8 cores in one CCD chiplet (less latency than two chiplets). But the 7950X3D is still twice the CPU cores in total, so has twice the compute capability, if you also need superb workstation performance.
