Those of you grabbing the x3D chips, what mobo are you pairing with them?

Sold my 7900x3d and installing the 7800x3d now!

 

[Sanepar]

I'm still hoping for a 7600X3D... But that's a pipe dream isn't it?

6 cores in 2023? It is more like a nightmare.

How is the board? I was looking at it but several reviews complain about the VRM squealing with coil whine...

7800X3D​

Jesus, I fell for the 7950x3D hype. Hope it actually performs better in Unreal Engine 5.2 productivity or I'm gonna throw a fit.

All the productivity benchmarks have the 7950x3d well ahead, don't worry about it. If that what you also need it for then you made the right choice.

Def going to be in my next build.
TBH im kinda pissed about nvidia lack of VRAM. Ugh. Probably going to be a 4080

I don't really understand the modern CPU market. What exactly is the point of getting CPUs like these? When are you going to be CPU bound in a game?
Benchmarks show games in 1080p no RT etc just so they can show the FPS when CPU bound, but who plays like this? In reality you are going to be GPU bound.
I understand there is an argument for competitive games wanting high framerates, but those games are less demanding in the first place and not difficult to get to high FPS.

I'm regularly CPU bound with a 12700k and 7900xtx @1440p

You're also better off being GPU bound than CPU bound, you'll get less stuttering.

50 Watts means that Sony could take the 7800x3d on a smaller node and put it directly into the PlayStation 6 as it is high clocked 30 watts.We would have one of the best CPUs in a console.In 2-3 years this CPU will still be one of the fastes

Nothing like that for me. Solid and ultra cool and I'm pushing it pretty hard.

AMD's Ryzen 7 7800X3D Selling Nearly Twice as Fast as 5800X3D in Some Regions

AMD's cheapest Zen 4 X3D processor is shaping up to be its most popular. Sales numbers from Germany's Mindfactory posted by TechEpiphany seemingly shows the recently launched Ryzen 7 7800X3D outselling last year's Ryzen 7 5800X3D nearly 2:1, with 4,720 7800X3Ds selling to the 5800X3D's 2,510...

I dont understand this
I have old cpu i7 7800x and i tried playing on friend's computer ( he got core i5 13600k ) and we got almost same fps in 4k ( we both have 3090 gpu )
Why should i upgrade processor when only gpu matters on better resolutions?

Your GPU likely isn't strong enough to be causing your CPU any issues. But if you upgrade to a 4080/4090 or stronger then you'll likely want to upgrade that CPU to get the best out of the GPU.

That and 1% lows.

You are GPU limited.
But chances are, your friend has much better 1% lows.

Thanks for info guys

It's why I bought mine.(5800x3d) I still haven't installed it though so I can't say if it'll improve things over what I have.(3800xt)

AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D drops to the lowest price of $406 - VideoCardz.com

All Ryzen 7000X3D SKUs now 10% cheaper through select US retailers Newegg leads the path for lower AMD AM5 pricing. It is reported by Tom’s Hardware that the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU has finally been discounted by nearly 10%. Unlike the 12-core 7900X3D and 16-core 7950X3D, the 8-core 7800X3D has...

7000 cpus are AM5.

if you move to 7000 cpus and AM5 motherboard you also need DDR5 RAM.

AM4 only supports DDR4 RAM and up to Ryzen 5000 cpus

Until Chineses start selling DDR4 am5 motherboards. Aliexpress is full of obscure unofficial hardware.

In 2-3 years this CPU will still be one of the fastest

zen5 and arrow lake are rumored to be 30-40% faster than current stuff.
if so, they'll smoke everything out now.

both are expected to come out 2024 (but who really knows).
