Our selection show that the 7950X3D is 1% faster overall than the 13900K. The selection of games (the games suite used in benchmarks) will matter heavily per title. Now it has to be stated results will vary wherever you read reviews.

Here we can observe a healthy average 9% increase in performance.Īnd then the 13900K from Intel. On average, we measure +32% in performance that's huge.Ībove, you can see the Ryzen 9 7950X versus 7950X3D. This is measured with a GeForce RTX 4090 at a more CPU-bound Full HD resolution. And yes, there will be some isolated titles with bigger differences, of course.Ībove, you can see the previous generation Ryzen 9 5950X versus Ryzen 9 7950X3D. It's also worth noting that we tested the processors with a GeForce RTX 4090, so those with slower GPUs will experience a narrower performance gap unless you're gaming at lower resolutions. Both processors have their advantages and disadvantages, but the difference is so relative that it's unlikely you'll even notice it. Thanks to its improved 元 cache, the 7950X3D can compete even better with Intel's 13900K in terms of gaming performance. Overall application performance can be a notch slower, but as the tests have proven, some are now a notch faster. The asking price for the Ryzen 90 7950X3D has been kept similar to the 7950X, and if you're a PC gamer then the choice is obvious. The 5800X3D, for example, did not have this dependency, as it just worked. It's not a big thing to install and set up. Admittedly it works well however, what surprised us is that the new 7000X3D is dependent on software. Of course, the X3D series is all about that extra chunk of 元 cache, to boost gaming performance. The performance differential compared to the regular 7950X is merely a few per cent, so really, in terms of the overall performance, you are not losing a lot, and yet another benefit is that the processor temperatures are much milder than the 7950X. AMD did things right they lowered the TDP to 120W with a PPT of 162W, which is significantly below what Intel is offering. The X3D series has been long-awaited and is perhaps the best processor (from AMD) for the PC gamers among us (and that's pretty much all of you).
