X3D version will launch after Intel Core Ultra 200 series launch.

stanlawj, 9950X TDP is 170W not 120W.

AMD intro X870(E) chipset, promises AM5 updates through 2027+​

title wrong format, must include "<value>% better than <competition>" comparison in the title

 

[ClementChong]

Competition have not come out with new CPUs (new socket and new board) yet, competitor's current generation CPUs needs to be re-benchmark with the competitor's "Default Profile" first before doing any performance comparison. So the only wording that can be used currently is "16% better than Zen 4 at lower TDP" (Almost similar clock speed but lower TDP).
So far the rumors is X3D version of Zen 5 will be coming out around the same time as Arrow Lake.

 

[Ferolare]

Hopefully the new ITX boards come with WiFi7 as standard feature

Or in the case of Gigabyte, comes to Singapore

Edit:
65W TDP but no boxed cooler

Should be interesting to see how the higher memory clocks translate to performance gains.

 

[ragnarok95]

Both AM5 and 1718 last until 2027. Will wait for intel 200 then see which one will replace my aging 11700K lol.

wow, you saying there's no competition

 

[ragnarok95]

No competition now cos intel 200 haven launch. Once that one is out, amd will reclaim with X3D. Then intel will reclaim with KS.

Every cycle also sama sama.

 

[Phen8210]

I thought Intel KS was to hold the crown regarding the highest power consumption.

 

[kappak]

Yeah still can hold 5800x3d 1 more gen.

 

[Mach3.2]

zen3 to gen 5 IPC improvement is only about ~30%. asusming the gen 5 to zen 6 ipc jump is around ~15%, zen 3 > zen 6 IPC improvement will be ~50%, which will really make it worthwhile to upgrade.

moi still tan gu gu on zen2 apu, only now looking for zen3 x3d

Meanwhile laptops still using 7520 Zen 2

Meanwhile laptops still using 7520 Zen 2

mine is on 8845hs

We have to wait a bit for the new Zen 5 laptops as they just launched.

 

[Koenig168]

The new Asrock MBs are looking really nice esp. the Nova.
