we're so back.
What's the price though? I bought mine for $280 and that was 3 years ago. Paying over $400 for a 4 year old CPU is insane.
>>108615630Waitfagbros... if real will this vindicate me not buying 5700X3D for $180 in 2024 when I was abroad? Or should I spend $400 on a 13600K + B760 to substitute my X470 + 3700X?
amazing timeline
>>108615630What's the point of buying this shit when Intel announced they are keeping Raptor Lake production going with the 14th gen series? Even when using DDR4, the last Core i5 series should comfortably beat any Zen 3 part.
Is it a good time to buy a 5950X? I like my current 5700X but I'm gonna need more power for Blender, especially for things like baking physics simulations which can be pretty demanding.
>>108615735>shintel>cpukek
>>108615755My 4770K was pretty great for the time.
>>108615755kek this.>>108615630am4 bros, we just cant stop winning
>>1086156305800x3d and 5700x3d are unobtanium at this point. The prices you'll have to pay for it make am4 as a whole unattractive.
they're scared
What the fuckThis was supposed to be merely shitposting
>>108615899It doesn't matter, 5700X went up to 200 dollars by now and the 5950X is more than a 9800X3D.
I'm still on LGA1700 w/ a 12400 & a 3090 & 64GB 3600MHz DDR4. Maybe I could get a 12900K if I want to top things up to a two-three gen old high end rig.
Why would anybody buy this?
>>108615946Because they missed the 5700x3d sales
>>108615941It's currently $388 here right now. Lowest I saw it for was $305 back in December. It's priced that way because it is two 5800X's glued together, which are more expensive than the 5700X.
I bet this is a nothing burger, people have been making fake AMD slides convincingly for years. Remember RDNA3?
Meh, 5800X3D is obsolete anyway. Last time to buy a Zen 3 X3D CPU was 2024.
>>108616935you cant buy 7500x3d anymore unless its a microcenter bundle
>>108615716for whom?
>>108617078scalpers with firsthand access to warehouse orders
One year of Nvidia cloud ultimate cost $200 to have access to a top notch gaming machine. Building your own gaming device is no more the smart thing to do.
>>108617180you can't defeat the laws of physicsits only ever going to be tolerable on games designed for controllers
>>108615630Based. What's the price?
>>108615735Because I've got an am4 board with 128gb of ddr4 ram and I refuse your scam updates.
>>108617299oen million dollarz
>>108616988You can get a 7600X3D for $200 tho
>>108617180i'm waiting for Radeon Pronto cloud gaming serviceuntil then, sunshine/moonlight is completely free for everyone
>>108615755Even my raptor lake 14700f is more powerful than amds equivalent. People need cpus that are for more than gaming. Intel covers areas that amd cant.
>>108615735because I can use my b450 motherboard and memory lol
>>108616026>Remember RDNA3?You mean AMD faked their own slides saying architected for 3GHz?
>>108618235it can hit 3ghz but only on the front end clock
>>108618267Okay. But the slides suggesting it would be better than it was were AMD's own.
>>108618222deasdshitplatformchokes when ray tracing
>>108615630FUCK I just bought a 5900XT because the X3Ds were completely gone
I have a 5800X so if I can get the 3D cheap I'll be happy
>>1086182733ghz 7900xtx scores like 40k in timespy while 4090 only gets 36k
>>1086196305090 is slower than 7900XTX as of today.
>there are "people" consider buying shartel in the lord's year of 2026
>>108619637WTF?
>>108617078For AyyMD.
>>108615630Still on my 1st gen hereLearned the hard way how sensitive the memory controller is when RAMmaxxing, had to fine-tune that shit by handIt was literally made for Windows 7 otherwise though
>>108616935Depends. If you're already on AM4, or maybe an older DDR4 Intel system, and want a CPU upgrade, buying into a DDR5 platform may not seem super attractive rn.
>>108615630Im pumping my cock rn to this news AMA
>>108615966God I wish I knew about those chink 5700x3d's.

>>108621760It's not like am4 users are losing out.Could have gotten their setup in 2018, upgraded to 5950x or 5800x3d depending on if creator or consoomer, and it's still good today.And most likely AMD won't do more than incremental improvements for a few more generations

>>108621862>that small of an improvement over a 3700X impossible despite the former using 3200 cl16
>>108617180>$200 to have access to a top notch gaming machineNo but you can play games over video call on one, for a little bit. You can't use it for everything a PC can do.>>108621919It's even worse. You only get 3h 20min per day (100h/mo). After that, you can either play free tier with ads, that closes your game every 1 hour, or pay more!
>>108621862Cherrypicked benchmark, clearly shows signs of a bottleneck
>>108621919It saddens me, 10 to 15 years ago, everyone would be laughing or outraged at this game streaming nonsense. Nowadays we have enough retards just cuck it up to no end and not only pay for these services but try to advertise them as a good or better thing like you're wasting your time for not taking the dick. Insane shit flies these days.
I have a 5900xUpgrade path is kind of fuckedIt's not the best for gaming but the CPUs with 3D cache I can upgrade to are costly enough and the gains are not justifiable, or at least that's what it seems. I doubt this new AM4 CPU would actually be beneficialAM5 is just way too pricey for me, obviously due to RAM pricing. But even then, even to this day I read horror stories about RAM stability and crappy BIOS defaults and CPUs that fucking melt
>>108623055yeah it sucks that amd bait n switched us with the 5900x3d in the original 3d vcache teaser but only gave us a puny 8-core x3d on am4 years later
>>108620061AMD (no RT) flies on linux, specifically RDNA3 and older.RDNA4 not so unfortunately. We're talking about marginal differences.
>>108623067At least the GPU I have is not amazing (9070xt) and the resolution is not the lowest (1440p) so I don't think I'm losing out that much. But fuck me, this CPU better last long because I'm not gonna bother with another upgrade in a good while.
>>108615630I don't think it'd be an upgrade from my 5900X, but maybe I could try finding a cheap 5900XT some day for the extra cores
>>108623140What for specifically?
>>108623156no particular reason, my 5900X still works fine, else I'd already have upgraded>check AM4 and 5900XT prices on ebayoh yeah, nevermind, they're like twice as expensive as they were a couple years ago, probably also part of why I haven't upgraded either
>>108623101>But fuck me, this CPU better last long because I'm not gonna bother with another upgrade in a good while.It will last you for as long as you can put up with it. It's the end of the line for am4 so any upgrade beyond that point will need a new socket. Have fun in 4 years pulling your hair out trying to decide between am5 and am6.
>>108623055>I have a 5900xthen you're fine
>>108623325How much better is a 5900x compared to a 3900x? I have a 3900x and a 3995wx, and the 3900x feels pathetically weak when I want to do multiple things at a time, while the 3995wx takes too long to actually complete a task. I don't think I can afford 7000 or 9000s, so the 5000s are the only upgrade path for me. But I'm not sure if it's worth it.
>>108623068RDNA4 RT works fine for me with a 9070xt at 2k@60hz
>>108623392I'm not saying it doesn't workI'm saying that in comparison with Windows the gains are marginal at best, unlike with older AMD GPUs. The good thing is that the performance loss on RT compared to windows is also fairly marginal (used to be 10%, now in some games is less than that)
>>108623392>owns a 1000 bucks worth 3995w>can't afford am5?
>>108623409Meant for >>108623384
>>108623384zen3 is a fair bit faster than zen2 on average owing to its 32mb unified L3 cache per every 6-8 cores. it performs 19% better at the same clock speed on average, and even higher than that in memory sensitive programs like games
Wish I could upgrade and grab a 5900XT. I don't game, just encode, so it would be a good improvement over my 5600.
>>1086156309800x3d has been released 1.5 years ago. It's time for 11800x3d already, not this half decade old shit.
>>108615630Would it be a meaningful upgrade from a 3700X? I didn't buy a 5700X3D because I concluded I didn't really need it outside of gaming.
>>108625410Yeah, it would be pretty noticable in gaming.
>>108615630I have 5600x/rx 6070xt so yeah I'm upgrading both if this comes out
>>108624575There's 9850x3d now.
>>108615630What will they sell it for? Sub 200 usd?
>>1086157505950x has been pretty stable in price over the last 3 years. I have one and it's still great for everything.
>>108615630The demand is going to skyrocket it to $400+
>>108626618it went up tho
>>108625410yes, it would be significant in gaming. I will probably upgrade my 5600x to this when it releases, which is an even greater upgrade considering 2 extra cores.
>5800X3D re-releasefree money for AMD. rent a cheap-ass back alley production line and shit out an old design and sell it to the cattle not rich enough to upgrade from AM4 due to RAM prices.
>>108629191AMD loses money by doing X3D thou
>>108629775they're going to sell this for 400 bucks with a, at the very most, 200 buck cost (including r&d, services, post-sale). they're going to bank on this shit, especially with the amount of people still on inferior AM4 cpus.
>>108629793But why not buy Intel at that point?
>>108629892And put it in an AM4 board?
>>108615630I love my 5800X3D like you wouldn't believe it
>>108618803the 5900xt is a 5950x without the burst speeds, right?
>>108616935The truth is that if yoy have a am4 system the only logical rh7ng to do right now is to either invest in a 5800x3d or 5850x and wait for something better.Any am4 system without these chips is just sitting there as a shell of what it could be. There is no upgrade pathetic for either the chipset or ram, so getting everything together in one place and building the sustem up just makes more sense than building a completely different system on a am5 platform that hasn't matured yet.>Buy the cpu and get the best ram you can find.>run it until it no longer carries it's own weight for the gpu.>when it's completely obsolete put whatever radeon graphics card is out in 2030 and give it to a kid in your family to fuck around with.
>>108630307it's just a rebranded 5950x that's binned a bit lower so it's base/boost clocks are 100MHz less
>>108630307>>108630809for a while the 5950x was $50 cheaper than the 5900xt here
>>108631009yeah if you're trying to decide which to buy, just get whichever is cheaper, the performance increase/decrease will be negligible
>>108615750You might want to wait for a 5950x3D even a 5850x3D too
>>108632454AMD never put the 5950X3D into mass production despite literally making it because it wasn't deemed profitable enough to justify the cost of manufacturing.
My uncle is John AMD and he said the 5800X3D 10yr will feature underside v-cache.
>>108633234That's actually what AM5 turned out to be, no? Anyway, I love my 5900x and only just started to max it out. Got Samsung B-Die and running everything in RAM (unused RAM is wasted RAM). there's literally no need to upgrade for another 5 to 10
>>108615630AM4 is eternalthe next ryzen generation will go back to AM4 by the way
>>108634226I wish I had good luck with my 5900Xes. First one had faulty cores out of the box. Second one has been giving me corrected errors occasionally for the last 3+ years and is now apparently giving system fatal errors (despite not crashing?).Definitely going to pick up one of these new 5800X3Ds if I can. More cores is nice for compiling AUR stuff but I do primarily just game.
As long as AM4 continues to survive, so will Windows 7 thanks to official drivers. And because pretty much every new game released in the past 4 years is absolute slop, you really don't need more than a 3090ti or 6950xt. I will be happy to add a new 5800x3d to my collection
>>108615630Am4 glad to hear it
>>108634624oh btw, >thanks to official driversofficial drivers are slop, you should slop your own drivers if you want. i rewrite my thinkpad's drivers using LLMs
Shame the AM4 socket is dogshit. AMD fixed it with the AM5 but I can't get behind it, ever.
>>108634813we have all pulled the cpu out of the socket with the cooler onceif you do it more than once i'm afraid you are mentally challenged
>>108634817The basic issue is having the pins on the cpu instead of in the socket. It's too fragile and kills the second hand market.
>>108634851>Bend pin on CPU>Can easily bend it back>Bend pin on LGA motherboard>It's just fucked
>>108615912Maybe, but it's not more than buying a 9800X3D + motherboard + DDR5
>>108634281how you mean?
>>108634636what llm do you use and what are your specs?
>>108629793200 bucks is way too much since the node and r&d have long been paid forits more like $100 max, maybe $120 with all the gas price jewing
>oh cool, a late new addition to AM4 to stave off needing to do a full upgrade>head /proc/cpuinfo>already have a 5800Xoh
>>108617180> Building your own gaming device is no more the smart thing to doESL Alert
>>108634817I haven't done it more than once but that's because I autistically run prime95 before any cooler removal, otherwise confidence in pulling it off is pretty low
