Review: AMD Ryzen 9 7900 processor
AMD also released a Ryzen 9 7900; this 65W non-X model offers absolutely beautiful performance and temperatures. Next to the 7700, this actually might become a best seller in the current Ryzen 7000 product stack.

I hope people buying a 7900 non-X and non X3D don't buy it for gaming indeed... but I doubt it. I have trust in those people actually buying it for workloads.
More expensive than a 5800X3D with lesser 4K performance, that's progress right there.

Not bad at mulitcore but gaming, get the 7600 instead.

I have a 3800x and x570 Asus Tuff built three yeras ago that will go to my wife that is need of a new pc.
Was looking at pricing of the new chipset platforms for a new mid-range gaming pc and ended up going with the 5800x3d and MSI x570s Tomahawk MAX. The 3800x pc has been a solid and great 1440p gaming pc and the pricing vs performnace gain for the new platforms didn't appear to be worth it for me.
No doubt the 7800x3d is likely going to be a great gaming cpu when released. But considering what is available now the 5800x3d was the route I chose.

Looking at these benchmarks, and with the knowledge that the X3D version is coming next month, I have to wonder what the point of the 7900X was.
