I mean guys, for how long will the 5800x or 5800xed or 5700x be fast? For as long as the 7700x does.
The day the 5800x can't do 60fps, the 7700x can't either.

I checked few reviews , there are some big differences . I wonder where is the difference . In some reviews AMD does much better. ( for example Igors).

to put it simple, it will do best in games that will run on potato cpus anyway, but in really cpu heavy games, it will do just okay.not bad, but not as great either. look how in cp2077 it's down to 12400 ddr4 level, even though in igor's test it's like 30% faster at 720p in games where 12400f does +200fps.
720p, very light games, is where it shines.
check 1080p and really cpu intensive scenes and it will plummet to 12600k ddr4 levels.
must be cache related, same happened to r5000 to some degree, it did best at 720p in some very light competitive games,while 1080p cpu heavy open world games it wasn't as good.

Also different results here at 1080p. (Here Intel and AMD very close).
Maybe GPU used ?

What the article doesn't say is that there is a way to make the cpu a 65w tdp one, you keep most of the performance (losing a few percentage at best apparently) but it gives you a cooler cpu and greatly enhance the efficiency.
AMD should enable the feature in Ryzen Master "soon". I saw a french review where they did the manual step AMD gave them to compare "old" and "new" TDP. And the difference in performance is not enough to sacrifice the efficiency.
Anyway, there is no game that is so CPU limited that you can't play it over 100 fps as long as you have the GPU. So yeah, waiting these CPU to greatly enhance the framerate is pointless. Don't expect much from raptor lake, the CPU aren't making the difference unless you wanna benchmark at 1080p. But enthusiast (which are the target here) are not really playing at that low resolution, are they ?
Anyway, it's a good batch of new CPU. The jump between Zen 3 & 4 is still way more than what intel did before AMD shake them up. The only blame is not to default the CPUs at the "efficiency TDP" and leaving the "higher TDP" for the ones that are after overclocking to the last Mhz.

Speaking for myself, as a punter who enjoys stutter free gaming, I think it would be a good idea to show minimum frame rates and this would help me make a quality CPU choice whereby I should be able to avoid stuttering in a game. 🙂

So after reading the review, i`m having mixed feelings about this CPU.
It`s fast, very fast, but not much faster than Intel`s offerings, specially in gaming. I was expecting a little better.
Then we have the thermals, unfortunately AMD decided to copy Intel, going after maximum performance at any cost, resulting in an extremely high temps and power consumption.
And the fact that AMD set the CPUs to operate at 95 degrees to extract some more performance, is a little scary, at least for me.
In the end, i don`t see a CPU good enough to warrant a new system, specially if it costs around 1.000€ and if i still need to buy a liquid cooler...
Great review as always Hilbert!
Hilbert, do you think you could investigate a little about Pluton, that some say is a backdoor pretending to be a security device???

Looks like even a 7600X upgrade is gonna set you back atleast $1000.
R.I.P. AMD for throwing budget out the window.

I have been waiting for this review! 5800X3d and new AIO were just ordered and should be here soon. I was pretty much set on that anyways, but this article definitely helped the confidence of my decision. Left the door wide open for Intel in the gaming department this gen and I bet they'll push the 7000X3D versions out right when Intel launches RL.
