The recent Geekbench run of ST 3475 shows ~5460MHz auto-boosting, which is likely achieved by a +100-150 MHz boost override and unknown CO voltage offset. AMD conservatively chose to avoid a 5.4 or 5.5 listed max boost to protect themselves from reliability issues and thus liability for any unforeseen problems that may arise with this new technology. But it would appear that with a bit of PBO tweaking, 5.45 auto boosting is going to be readily achievable, and indeed should be easily achievable on air.
I blew all the 'tards minds over at WCCFTECH by telling them Im running my 9900X on air. They think you need an 240mm AIO even for a sub 100W 7800X3D over there. They've been tricked by business. The reality is that liquid cooling doesnt even need to be considered unless you plan to be running a chip at >200W PPT for extended periods of time.
... and a whole lot bigger PITA!Last time I looked into it a lot of AIO's were worse than good air coolers.
If reviewers want to relate performance to MSRP, and do so specifically for application scenarios in which the hardware-side of the performance is mostly determined by the combo of GPU & RAM & CPU, then they should put the performance delta into relation with the [GPU MSRP & RAM MSRP & CPU MSRP] delta.Steve and Tim are already saying 10% more performance for 10% more money is bad. So yes indeed everyone, the measly $30 price hike is the lead talkingpoint.
Why even bother with this, it's just GPU tests, but I guess those clicks and views must flow for WhyCry et al.Funky X3D review leak!
That’s actually real life average gamer setup, 2k with 4070(ti).Funky X3D review leak! Looks like average core clock during gaming is 5.225 GHz at stock. Very odd setup and only compared to 9700X, not 7800X3D.
Looks like 5.4GHz OC.
Yeah the HWinfo shows multiplier of 55x for a 99.8MHz BCLK, so that is def 5.49 GHz OC. Butt the 5.145 game shots are probably a 54x multipler with a 100.3 MHz BCLK or something.There's another screenshot from that chiphell.com link, but yeah not sure if these two screenshots were from same machine.
It shows 1.248v @ 5490Mhz.

The MSI power point leaked 2weeks ago, for sure will be 5-10%.+5-10% to 7800x3d at 1080p, according to one leaker, whose name shall not be mentioned here.
Nah been running a 360mm AIO on AM4 since 2019 zero issues. Will finally have to replace it when I go AM5 but still going with a newer 360Last time I looked into it a lot of AIO's were worse than good air coolers.
That would be up to the OEMs, not AMD, wouldn't it?DDR5 and LPDDR5 are different memory standards, AMD clearly prioritized LPDDR5 support. DDR5 is coming later if I had to guess.
Unless AMD put restrictions or a limit until a certain time. The fact no one released a DDR5 is telling.That would be up to the OEMs, not AMD, wouldn't it?
Anyone know when the review embargo is supposed to lift? I thought it was the 6th with release on the 7th. Its almost the 7th here already.

Eyeballing it id say about 5-10% on average. But the lead should grow when the 5090 launches.Still two hours to go but here's one review to relieve some boredom for yall while waiting~
edit: can someone do the math and calculate the avgs out?

That's easy, soldered RAM means you will need to replace the item rather than upgrade. OEMs/SIs don't get revenue when you upgrade.Btw, does anyone know, why, despite AMD listing support DDR5-5600 supported on Strix-Point, there were no models to date announced with socketed DRAM? I mean everything from MiniPCs to gaming laptops? I would understand the decision to stick to soldered only RAM for models depending on iGPU, but if dGPU is present why force soldered DRAM?
