Leaked Ryzen 9 5900X benchmark bests AMD's 3950X with fewer cores

[WYP]

Zen 3's giving AMD a major single-threaded performance boost.

That's bonkers. This generation's six core could match or beat last gen's eight core.

If Zen 3's single core performance actually translates well into games, And not just a few select benchmarks, Intel are going to have to seriously rethink their product stack going forward.

They should have been doing that the moment Ryzen was released instead of mocking AMD and fiddling with 10nm.

Agreed, But what a lot of people don't realise is that companies like Intel are actually headed by fat old out of touch men, Like most game companies infact i.e Nintendo, They only care about their profit margins, If they are good they'll just continue to do small incremental updates to their product stacks, Once Intel properly gets hit in the pocket book we'll start seeing them go into panic mode as they cannot meet their shareholders expectations.

Capitalism at its finest, look at Bobby Kotick, a man who couldn't give a rat's ass about games in general and is just in there for the big business that gaming has become, that man doesn't care at all, yeah i think we could have an endless discussion about this but the point is very strong with Lisa Su, she's an enthousiast engineer with the qualifications to lead the teams and she's been absolutely fantastic with it.


We need more of those people in leadership positions at big corperations, but i doubt this will happen anytime soon.

It's greedy human nature at its finest, Capitalism is just a tool, Look at what Lisa Su is doing, That is capitalism at its finest, Just at the pother end of the scale i.e continually innovating.

How is any of this related to the thread in question? Leaks of Ryzen 9 5900X beats 3950X’s in benchmark?...

It's to do with the topic at hand, Happens in adult conversations quite a lot.

Unfortunately I've come to expect nothing less on these forums.

Seems every other thread manages to get to turned into a political debate or an argument over off-topic subjects.

I for one am really pleased with the leaks so far and hope they hold true as I am swaying more toward an AMD CPU upgrade than waiting for Rocket Lake.

Human nature and capitalism has literally nothing to do with leaked Ryzen benchmarks.

If a few extra comments, Which are not off topic but relating to the actions of said company, Are enough to cause emotional distress then there may be deeper issues afoot bud.

Point proven.

There's no "emotional distress" or deeper issues afoot.

It's just tiresome to trawl through a load of waffle to read the relevant comments.

I also note you took the time to quote me but not to add what I wrote about Ryzen... sigh.

Anyways, not going to continue to be off topic.

I am looking forward to the benchmarks. This will be my first cpu upgrade since the 7700k launch day if I upgrade at all. Certainly not choosing the 10th gen intel.

But are bios as bad as people make them out to be?

an all AMD setup is sounding appealing right now

Same, was definitely going to wait for Rocket Lake but Zen 3 looks insanely good.

From what I've read and a few opinions of friends who have AMD boards they can be a bit janky at first but AMD apparently update they regularly.

So given that you can use a 570 board which has been out a while, hopefully any issues would have been ironed out...

No it’s not. What does politics have to do with leaked benchmarks? Nothing in the slighest.

Coming from a 2700x so it will be a good jump for me for sure.
