If it's anything like the previous generation, the X3D processors will provide more fps in the majority of games.

No. Also, this CPU runs on Socket AM5. Your system board is Socket AM4, so not compatible at all.

Man, this generation of CPU and GPU launches has been a big bust for the enthusiast (outside of 13th gen Intel) from a price/perf standpoint. 5900x/RTX 3090 hold-out here. I have zero intention of upgrading this generation, but I look forward to the next one.

Which will provide more FPS in games - 7900X or i9-13900 or 7900X3D ?

Or is it dependent on specific games?

Will this give me a big boost from a 5800x3d to 7900x? Also is it compatible with Dell Alienware aurora r14 motherboard? Thanks for any replies.

Tempting, but since I'm building around a 4090, that last ~10% or so performance upgrade matters to me to not be cpu bound.

Will wait for x3d reviews, but also hopeful they extend this free ram offer to x3d chips since AM5 hasn't been selling.. Time'll tell..

Got lucky & found a FE at Best Buy at msrp, was a cancelled online order. Also opened a BB credit card that offered 10% off & 10% back in BB credit.

Don't worry, I'm still a SD'er at heart, lol. Great pick-up on your end! That'll last you.

yeah definitely wait for reviews of x3d, and pay attention to the resolution the benchmarks are on. no need to compare the differences in 1080p low/med settings if you're playing at 4k and cpus make negligible difference for the games you play.

since you have a 4090, i'm guessing you'll probably shop for a high end cpu anyway, but just my 2 cents.

dependent on games and resolution/settings. if you're playing at 4k, it'll make much less of a difference than 1080p.

also, x3d isn't out yet. though if 5800x3d teaches us anything, it'll hopefully be a nice bump over the non-x3d.

I've been unable to play games run stably with the memory EXPO settings at 6000 MHz with the Flare X5 set MC has been giving away. It's stable if I manually clock it at 5600 MHz. Hopefully the platform will be more stable as time goes on.

I doubt they'll have the ram offer with the X3D chips. They're obviously offering these on the non X3D chips so move inventory before the X3D chips release as people will stop buying or considering them.

Monday of last week I walked in and asked for whatever deal they had. They gave me a Ryzen 7 with the RAM for a penny. So far so good, still spent way too much by the time I was done....

Mine has been running on 6000mhz since the day I got it.
