    5700x v 5800x Same price which do you buy?

    The 5700X is so far my favourite CPU as the B2 stepping guarantees low temperature and quietness. I returned the 5800X3D for refund just because the high temperature makes the fan so noisy. Same here. I ordered B650E ITX + Trident 2x32GB 5600C30 from the US at £725. Together with the 7950X at...

    AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3D Cache Eight Core 4.5GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail - Go Go Go xD

    No. Wait for Ryzen 7000. The 5800X3D is too hot and forces the fan to make too much noise.

    It's marginal improvement once the cooler surpasses a certain scale. The bottleneck is heat conductivity/dissipation underneath the lid. In other words, you won't get much better results than a basic air cooler which can handle 105W TDP.

    AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3D Cache Eight Core 4.5GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail - Go Go Go xD

    I got rid of my 5800X3D due to the loud noise of the fan caused by the high temperature. The 5800X3D has a bottleneck for heat conductivity/dissipation. Not even a high-end cooling system can tame it. (Think about an Intel 7700K without de-lidding.) AGESA 1.2.0.6b doesn't provide official...

    OcUK RX5800X3D review thread

    This isn't quite sensible. You are putting more weight on the high fps games. Instead you should calculate the geometric mean of each CPU and compare. Unless of course you only play those high fps games where no monitor can reach that refresh rate.

    It's a toy that is nice to have, not something vital for life. Can afford the price? Sure. Can afford the cooling requirement? My ITX rigs are likely gonna struggle. It's more like a precautious move that it may get sold out everywhere, just like the RTX 3000 GPUs, or PlayStation 5 etc.

    I bought one only because I saw stock level going down insanely fast, but I'm not sure if I should proceed installing it...

    Mine arrived this morning but I haven't convinced myself to start installing it into one of my rigs :S

    5700X overheating

    Same here, merely 75C with small FFT with the 5700X. It's not even as stressful as patching multiple virtual machines at the same time. My 5800X3D will arrive shortly but I'm not sure whether I want to put that into my daily driving rig as I really enjoy the power efficiency of the 5700X!

    Yes. Asrock tech support told me that for 5700X to boot (despite it being recently released), the minimum version to boot was 1.0.8.0 Patch A (back when Vermeer was released in 2020, such like the 5900X etc), but they strongly recommend updating to 1.2.0.6b for 5700X. Didn't ask about 5800X3D.

    My 5700X failed to boot with 1.2.0.6b for a few times. Rolled back to 1.2.0.3 Patch C and no problem yet. If 5800X3D will definitely require 1.2.0.6b then it's gonna be a test.

    There used to be hypes that production will be very difficult.

    I was in a meeting when it launched. By the time I opened OcUK website it was only 3 in stock, and by the time I tried to place an order it's already back-order. Luckily the other place is also free delivery this time.

    5700X overheating

    I'm running all default BIOS settings without any overclocking in an ITX case cooled by Noctua L9A-AM4, trying to be eco friendly. Not sure about the default value for PBO settings (never bothered to figure out these in the BIOS)

    5700X overheating

    I have the opposite here... 3700X at 95C but 5700X at 80C

    AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D retail processor has been tested ahead of launch

    I've been looking forward to downsize my daily driving rig into a more eco-friendly form. Thanks to your pro-AMD propaganda converting my religion a few years ago I'm stockpiling more and more AMD CPUs in my house :p I had the hope that the 5800X3D could potentially defeat the 5800X in some...

    AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D retail processor has been tested ahead of launch

    Wow I haven't followed the news... Now it's probably an explanation why the 5700X's stock level from the forest came down so quickly in just one day - TPU's review probably have convinced many "non-gamer" people not to wait for the 5800X3D.

    Ukraine Invasion - Please do not post videos showing attacks/similar

    There are merely about 13k warheads in total. If each of these can yield ~ 50 kilotons of TNT (hypersonic / balistic missiles can't deliver something as heavy as Tsar), then the total yield is merely 650 million tones of TNT. This is just 22 eruptions of the Tonga volcano - so nothing more than...

    I thought this has been proven to be false by the scientists?
