tl;drIt's up.
5950X is 24% faster than the 3950X
RIP in pieces Intel desktop performance crown
tl;drIt's up.
Where are those damned reviews???
Should not the reviews be out a few days before the sale begins?
here there are some performance leaks about 5600X (follow the discussion)
Latency looks to low to be believable with those timings. I guess one can hope it's true, but I'll believe it when I see it from the reviews.
Probably because it is a single die. No die to die latency.Interesting that AMD used the 5900X to benchmark their new graphics cards, rather than 5950X, and has referred to 5900X as "world's best gaming CPU".
Still waiting on reviews to finalize decision between 5800X and 5900X for my new build gaming rig. (Likely combining with RX6800XT, also pending reviews, as first all-AMD build ever for me).

Ah, misread it as 3800X. Old eyes and not enough coffee.5900x is 2 die.
We may have used the 2 die reason to explain worse performance too much in the past.5900x is 2 die.
One possibility is that AMD considers 5900X bigger L3 cache per core (64MB/12 = 5.33MB instead 64MB/16 = 4MB) a better fit for games.Interesting that AMD used the 5900X to benchmark their new graphics cards, rather than 5950X, and has referred to 5900X as "world's best gaming CPU".
I'm just amazed at how badly Intel has dropped the ball in the last five years. Staggering incompetence. Their 10nm is the Duke Nukem Forever of tech.
Intel's management is incredibly arrogant they believe their rightful place is to always be at the top they see themselves as THE CPU company. Long term I see it as a good thing Intel being knocked down a few pegs their management culture needs a house cleaning.I'm just amazed at how badly Intel has dropped the ball in the last five years.

They really don't need to hurry. 10nm is still a problem at Intel, 7nn seems equally dubious. As long as Zen 4 arrives in the 15 - 18 month window AMD should be more than okay. As long as they don't go into stasis while in the lead haha.Now imagine what it would be like if AMD could get Zen4 out at about this time next year.
