Do you think that 16 core fire range will consume less power under similar conditions?
7940HX perf vs power, need only half the power to match a 14900HX, and Zen 5 will be more efficient at same perf.
I never was disputing the fact that 9955HX will be performant CPU, nor I claimed it won't be faster than any member of Tiger Lake family.9955HX will need less than half the 'juice' of tiger lake / 11980HK to have the same performance
In games, perhaps, but we have seen power scaling of 9950X, 9955HX won't be 10% slower at 120W vs stock 9950x. Especially that 9950HX will be more often than not paired with worse memory. Still among laptop CPUs it will top the MT charts most likely. But once again, not at 55W of power draw.9955HX will have around 90% perf of 9950X despite limited to mostly 55 - 120 watts
Good. I hope you will. I am curious what the numbers will betl;dr trust me bro. I'll post a very elaborate review once I have my 9955hx laptop
At the same time I am not buying this class of CPU to run it at 45W...(this is the sustained power draw in my Dell Laptop). If the compile time will drop from 40 minutes to 20 minutes, it still enough to heat up the CPU that will be running at 120W
My only issue was you telling everyone that laptop is fine for everybody
At the same time I am not buying this class of CPU to run it at 45W
You know what also fits all of these bills, except does them better?but it is fine for everybody seeking fully portable 9950x!
as long as you're ok with these 2 things
- 2.5kg minimum
- price point around ~1500 ~2000
then yes it's 100% for you. then if you want something lighter/smaller you get that 13'' Halo, similar 9950x cpu perf
I repeat, all the arguments you pose about 'too hot' or 'too noisy' simply do not apply
"too hot+noisy" only applies when the below happens
- 100% load CPU + GPU at same time
- AAA games on High/Ultra
and in those cases there's loud game music or other sfx etc or distance if you have it just plugged at tv away,
which again make it unnoticable
you can run it at full power 100-130w and it will still be totally fine temp/noise wise
there are plenty of 7945hx reviews already and this already applies, 9955hx will only make things better on that front... just can't bother searching for the right video where it shows that but the graph above is proof enough
Apple M4 Pro/Max performance core.What is the best single threaded performer?
We have seen this graphs already in this thread The story they don't tell is the sustained performance30w easily runs with 0db passive mode ~70°C and it's a full 200% performance over tiger lake at 100 °C lol
Then we got to:9955HX will have around 90% perf of 9950X despite limited to mostly 55 - 120 watts
And now you pivot to Strix Halo, which has optimized interconnect what gives it a TDP headroom compared to 9955hx.When you see video of 9955hx laptop with Superior Ergonomics compiling linux silently at ~80% speed/time of 9950x will that convince you?
OOS
The story they don't tell is the sustained performance
But with every post you lower the performance target, first it was 90% then 80%
And now you pivot to Strix Halo, which has optimized interconnect what gives it a TDP headroom compared to 9955hx.
My original claim was that 9955hx in a 2.5kg laptop chassis when doing something as innocent as compiling a non-trivial CPP project would bounce of the power limits what would stress its cooling solution and make it audible
the sound it will produce will be more bothersome than desktop PC with 9950x in average sized case, while not being able to match it in performance.
The point was that 45W sustained power draw in 2,5kg laptop chassis is generating a noticeable noise for me if subjected to loads lasting longer than CB23
we're not going on circles, the topic is closed let's move on 😂
I wish they would do a dual V-cache X3D kickstarter, just to gauge consumer interest. Can they manage to sell out a limited batch of CPUs for $1 million in less than a week, to be delivered in 4 months?
AMD should double the v-cache with Zen 6 and make the standard processors with the same amount of v-cache found on the 9800x3d chips. The dual v-cache sounds great but AMD has finally fixed their clock regression on Zen 5 v-cache. It makes sense to make v-cache standard and introduce a new x3D CPU with double the v-cache.It wouldnt perform they way you'd want/expect and it would cost too much and cost AMD valuable 3D cache they would be better spent anywhere else. They can't even produce enough 9800X3D's.
