I thought I had done everything needed after upgrading from a 7700X to the 7800X3D, but my CPU latency numbers in iRacing didnt come down much at all which has been in the 8-16 range. I use a RTX3080Ti and its latency numbers are typically 2-6. The result has been that I couldnt run in VR with a Valve Index at over 90 FPS without a lot of FPS drops especially using venues that have been a problem like Mt Washington (endless trees, close up to the road). I just followed this video, step by step, including reinstalling the AMD drivers, and the CPU latency dropped into the 6-8 range. The only obvious change to what I had was setting the power management as recommended in the video to Balanced (it was set to High Performance). Now I am running at 120 FPS with very few FPS drops below 115 .
Yea it makes sense because x3d is more for gaming and has 2 ccds vs one CCD on 7800x3d. For me I would even choose a 7800x3d rather than 7950x3d. In my test bench I use the 7800x3d for a reason. Good comment
I managed to snag mine on Prime Day 2024 for significantly less than the 7800x3d, ty for the info. I am pleased w my purchase. Still at $327 as I speak. Less than amazon is charging for 7900x!
I play games like Tarkov and Rust, but would also like a CPU that doesn't perform poorly like the 7900X3D in productivity apps. Found a like new 7900X3D for $460 so I felt like it's a no brainer... 7800X3D is on sale for $420 at microcenter in my area but for an extra $40 I think it makes sense just to go for the 7900X3D. It would make sense to get the 7900X3D given it would only be $40 more, right? A bit nervous about core parking, game bar etc. but hopefully it works well (=
@@WootDini no worries, thanks for responding! Appreciate the feedback- it’s a tough choice but leaning with 7900x3D. It would feel odd to leave all that multi-fire performance on the table
I have performance issues with my current set up when I playing skyrim full modded with 4k textures. and I have decided to upgrade , do you recommend this processor or the ryzen 7 7800X3D?
THE BENCHMARKS didnt have any comparisons, so they were just numbers with no frame of reference, rendering them mostly uninformative. I cant even cross reference them with benches from another site because they may have different parameters in place, Otherwise great video , thanks
Synthetics' had comparisons to other CPU's? Gaming benchmarks here look to be a what you can expect from this CPU. You will never get a truly " cross referenceable " set of gaming benchmarks. Draw your own concussions when making a purchase decision.
@@aweeeeeeeeeeeeeful what in gods name are you talking about? what you just said was just wrong, im confused , have you never seen or read a cpu review? they usually include other cpu's on a chart showing multiple games at multiple resolutions.
I was so sure I replied to this. Sorry when I transferred the account it seems all my replies got lost. Completely agree, I am building my database of info. It's difficult for me as I'm a one man and it's not a full time thing (yet) so have to buy most things which becomes expensive. But as time goes by you will have more and better comparatives
So 7800x3d is going to be better for gaming. Depends what you are wanting to do. They discounted 7900x because of lack of demand. It's still a great CPU. Gaming go for 7800 because it's just easier and better. Multitasking etc go for 7900
Hi Woot! Im moving from am4 to asus x670 e gaming and Ryzen 9 7900x3d or maybe 7900x. About amd drivers, i should use tools from amd to uninstall am4 cpu apps and drivers? Or what? Obviously will keep my GPU. But well. . . What do you recommend to do a part from updating windows first and asus bios if necessary ( new Mobo) ? Thanks in advance
Hello :) Best process in my opinion Update bios Install windows (use the cmd code to install win 11 without internet connection to avoid bloatware) Update Windows service pack (as far as possible avoid things you don't need) Install chipset drives (AMD website) Install GPU drivers ( I recommend not using GeForce experience if you don't utilize the functions, rather just get the vanilla driver from Nvidias site) Install motherboard drivers (needed ones only) I manually update my driver's and fresh install windows every 4 months or so because I am pedantic about bloatware. If you want easy route (with bloat ) Bios Windows update full AMD drivers Install Armory crate and update all from there Hope this helps
At the time it was a MSI core liquid v2. But I don't suggest it. I have had issues with it since. I'm having alot of good benching with the ml360 flux from Cooler master

This is down to $329.99 now since it's not selling well.
What are you talking about LOL Its selling very well. New CPUs are coming out. Prices always drop like this.
@@Paultimate7 not the 7900X3D that's why it's cheaper than the 7800X3D

Yea, at that price I bet it is selling like hotcakes, I even got a couple bucks off that price for Prime day, like $327.
@@wowcplayer3 I got it for $314.00. May go under $300.00 for Black Friday.

NICE!! Best feeling ever to get savings on new pc upgrades.
I would say perfect for a server as great running temps , and a great all round producer and gamer ,
Yea :) maybe a small office or home server I can agree :) but obviously you won't have the pro functions that pro CPUs have
@@WootDini
Correct, steam server etc
I wouldn't recommend a Cray as yet

How is updating the bios very difficult? You can just flash it. I updated my bios without the cpu

In my country the 7900x3d is 460 usd and the 7800x3d is 552, those 2 extra 3d cache are worth 90 bucks?

Do you have a video on the 7950X3D?
@@WootDini That's fair, I checked out Linus' video on it and it seems unreliable.
@@WootDini Yeah I've been looking into the 7800x3d although, seems like they're hard to find here in the UK.
aiming to get an am5 platform soon myself for the instructions avx 512 sadly 5000 series lacks it i need those instructions
You must see the insane products AMD has planned
What cooler did you use to get those temps?
At the time it was a MSI core liquid v2. But I don't suggest it. I have had issues with it since.
