I think anyone two halves short of a full brain are expecting this new CPU to swallow more power than the 3950X :D

If these are going to be monolithic dies like previous, then price is going just as high as the power usage since I bet yields will be lower than what AMD can manage.
 
Worst core took 1.35V for 5.1GHz, hmm. If that's expected voltage for an all core 5.1GHz, cooling it down isn't going to be exactly trivial. :D
 
Yeah figured as much when i saw Corsair went into watercooling, cheap plastics all around!

They did well with choosing Bispower for fittings and HardwareLabs for radiators as OEMs, but their blocks and pumps are just nowhere near the competition both in looks or quality.

It is strange how Corsair, who once was the benchmark in pretty much every category, started frantically cheeping out everywhere. They became Thermaltake. Cheap, blingy, crap product maker... So sad.

I must add their AIOs, PSUs, and Keyboards still rock, but those are the only designs left from the good old days. Everything new is just scheiße.
 
They've been sinking for a few years now. It's a shame. But people REALLY should know better. I don't know ANY serious water cooler who would disgrace themselves buying that cheap crap, when we have so many better options.

  • When performing a task switch, Destiny™2 may experience an application hang or black screen.
  • Overwatch™ may experience an intermittent crash or black screen when joining a match.
  • Incorrect memory clocks may be reported in performance metrics overlay on Radeon RX 5700 series graphics products.
  • Some Hybrid Graphics system configurations with Radeon RX 5500 series graphics products may experience a blue screen on driver installation.
  • High memory usage may be experienced when Instant Replay and Desktop Recording is enabled on a system and a display on the system has timed out or gone to sleep.
  • A TDR or black screen may occur when running the Vulkan test from Geekbench™5.
  • Hitching may be observed in League of Legends™ on some system configurations after performing a task switch.
  • Sniper Elite™4 may minimize when invoking Radeon Software’s overlay.
  • The standard profile in Radeon Software may become applied when the gaming profile is clicked on numerous times in quick succession.
  • Lighting corruption may be seen when moving your mouse in Grand Theft Auto™5 with Radeon Boost enabled.
  • Texture corruption may be seen in the bottom right corner of the screen when moving your mouse in Shadow of the Tomb Raider™ with Radeon Boost enabled.

  • “Unable to get requirements” error message may sometimes be displayed in the Upgrade Advisor tab.
  • GPU metrics may sometimes fail to load in the performance tab of Radeon Software.
  • Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order™ and Control™ may experience application hangs when launched with Radeon Anti-Lag enabled.
Known Issues


  • Radeon RX Vega Series and Radeon VII graphics products may experience performance drops when Performance Metrics Overlay is open while a game is running.
  • Some game titles may experience hitching when Instant Replay is enabled on Radeon RX 5000 series system configurations.
  • Enhanced Sync may cause a black screen to occur when enabled on some games and system configurations. Any users who may be experiencing issues with Enhanced Sync enabled should disable it as a temporary workaround.
  • Using Edge™ web browser to playback video content with a multi display system configuration may cause a system hang or crash after extended periods of use.
  • Performance Metrics Overlay and Radeon WattMan incorrectly report higher than expected idle clock speeds on Radeon RX 5700 series graphics products. Performance and power consumption are not impacted by this incorrect reporting.
  • Some games may exhibit stutter intermittently during gameplay on Radeon RX 5000 series graphics products.
  • Radeon RX Vega series graphics products may experience a system crash or TDR when performing multiple task switches using Alt+Tab.
