31% Faster - AMD showcases Ryzen 7000 hammering Alder Lake in Blender at Computex

Pretty sure Intels next batch will come close to these, but the days of Intel selling clock speed as the best of the best are over. Thing is good to see competition again they will go back and forth each gen on who is the current best. For gaming thou least for now i think anyone on a modern chip is fine and shouldn't feel the need to switch just yet.

I'll get a 13900K only because current Z690 boards are compatible, My 12900K will go into my HTPC but a complete platform swap would be a little silly, I'm not switching to DDR5 until it actually makes sense to do so.
 
Yea the prices on ddr5 are not great atm, is why i'm waiting, i'd most likely have gone AM5 if amd hadn't given x370 5k support, much more likely to upgrade in gen 3 or 4 of AM5 now.

The GPU however may get upgraded sooner depending but atm i'm happy but i think I'll at least skip a gen on that first. Hopefully by then it still has some value to help.

Makes sense if your board supports the next chip it'll be a lot of leap frogging each gen now between the two they both have a lot of plans, I'm just going to hold off until towards the end more than i did last time, see how it plays out. Idk if i'd go MSI next time on the board thou while it's been fine they are much slower on updates, thou they did add a 1P2 bios fixing the cpu led light issue on my board that I was able to point out to them but everything else is the same so I don't see the point in switching atm unless they add a whql bios i can live with a tiny red light that i don't see :D
 
Yup until they can get DDR5 prices under control this will be a non event, limited only to those who buy every new CPU release.

Shame CPU releases are so boring. Not a patch on a decent GPU launch. AMD need to get their mobo prices down too. Far too expensive tbh.
