Maybe its time for me to move to AM5, maybe.

10% ? I am switching from 7950x3d to new intel. I need single thread power, for my current work.
Venix
Because a gazillion E and low power cores will give you that...

I'm really happy with my AM5 setup and I might be interested in the future 9800x3d.
But I really dislike this "fashion" of skipping numbers...

My 5900X is slowly but surely starting to age, this might be of interest.
MonsterMX99
I am looking the same way, wanted to switch 5900X for 7800x3D, but I will wait that few months..

Tbh 7950x3d might not have been best for single thread power could've gone for 13900K which is basically the same as 14900K in that regard. And it's not like Intel is ahead more then few percentage. So 10% in this would be way more then that.
Where it shines is pulling a lot of power out of the socket.

April to June release?
That seems very early. I was expecting it to be in late Q3.

For people going from 7*** series model for model its 10%, but for those currently running AM4 that 10% will increase with a faster platform and the jump from say 5800x3d to 9800x3d, that might be as much as 20% or greater,

not another useless igpu please...
too bad the L3 doesn't go over 64MB :\

Before strengthening their position against Intel they should strengthen their position against DDR5.
AMD moved to DDR5 only platform with DDR5 compatibility problems even with memory from QVL motherboard list.
Also they should do something with boot times which are still extremely high and if you enable memory context restore & DRAM Power Down Mode the system is sometimes stable sometimes not - basically how it "wants" to give you a headache or not.
Fix this before thinking about strengthening something.

It is fixed and pc boots fast as am4. Its not giving me any issues.

Seems like this won't be a significant improvement over the 7000 series. Fine by me - by the time I upgrade my CPU+mobo, the 7000 series ought to get a lot cheaper.
I don't get it, were you seriously expecting more than that? If your current work is really that single-threaded heavy, why would you opt for AMD, seeing as that's pretty much the one thing Intel does better with? Is it because you need both the high GHz and ECC support?
I'm also genuinely curious what CPU-bottlenecked money-making application you're working with that only needs one core.
barbacot
Not for me it's not.
And I see that also a lot of reddit users have (still) the same problems.
Many EXPO profiles are not stable if you go at claimed speed, also boot is stable with memory context restore only if you run at AMD official supported speed 5200 MHz.
I tried both GSkill trident Neo and corsair titanium and at "only 6000" MHz with a 7950X, relaxed timings, increased voltage - nothing worked - I had to choose between having slow boot times with 6000 MHz or fast boot times with 5200. I went even further because I hate big little Intel architecture and I really wanted to go with AMD and changed motherboard from MSI X670e ACE to Asus x670e Hero - same problem so I concluded that AMD needs to get their s**t together about memory compatibility - maybe the next series will do just that.
I am glad for you that you have no problems and I wonder how Intel can go with DDR5 8000 MHz stable and AMD can't the irony being that Intel supported both DDR4 and DDR5 initially while AMD was very "dedicated" to DDR5. I will keep my 5950X for now and 3950X for my wife.

Asus even added EXPO tweaked profile later on next to a EXPO I and II.
I run it tweaked 6000 cl30 stable. I could even do 6200 cl30 but it has some stability issues. It could be your board. Do you run latest Agesa 1.1.0.1?
These AM5 CPU's will have better imc and higher memory freq. will be supported. I think Intel also targets 6400 with Arrow Lake.
barbacot
At that time I ran bios 1709 - I checked now the stick that I used to do a bios update - it was the latest then - it had 1.0.8.0...I see now that they added a new bios version that improves system stability...maybe it could have worked but it is too late now - I returned cpu, motherboard and memory.
I don't think that it was the board because I had a msi ace before with same problems(changed it for the asus hero)...maybe the cpu that I had was not a good sample. Who knows?...but I was used like with 3950X, 5950X that are rock stable.
H83
I have an AM5 system (7700X - Asus B650E F Gaming - Gskill 32gb 6000Mhz Expo) with system restore enabled and it has been running fine, not perfect.
Fast boots seem to work most of the time but there are some occasions when it doesn`t kick in...
Despite being very happy with my setup, i agree that AMD and their partners should polish the AM5 platform even further, to ensure they don`t lose customers to Intel due to small stuff.
And i hope someone tells Asus not to overvolt the hell out of AM5 CPUs!!!
As for Intel having support for faster memory than AMD, i think that`s due to the memory controller on their CPUs. And i expect a better memory controller and higher speeds for the 9000 series.

look very nice, nice to see atlest AMD is actual trying to keep TDP in check would love to see what happens when these are released

How often are you rebooting your pc that this is an issue?
mattm4
Bring on the 9950x3d! This will be a sweet upgrade from my 5900x. Hold me over for 4-5 years.
