That's on the 5950X, which I understand because that also has 8 core CCXs. But the presentation talked up the 5900X for gaming. I thought it was less for gaming than the chips either side of it!Up to 200Mhz higher clock speeds and 8 extra cores/16 threads to do other stuff while a game is running.

Then you didn't watch the whole video properly, Lisa clearly said the 5950x was the best gaming CPU. As it stands at the moment, i take her word for it until benchies are put in the public domain.
But it's the comparison with the 5800X I didn't get, never mind.
