And what about 7950X3D vs 7900X3D?
I always buy last year processor when this year processor just came out and I save tons of money.
I dont follow AMD.
The 7900X3D, with its two 6-core dies (CCDs) and selective 3D cache which only works on one CCD, effectively utilizes only 6 cores while gaming versus 8 on the 7850X3D. It also uses game detection, and it can be hit or miss depending on the game and whether the Xbox Game Bar game detection plays nicely.
Plus, you won't need to worry too much about manual tuning to get the best out of the 7850X3D. Just something to consider if you're looking for the best gaming performance without the extra hassle. Cheers!
If you're into games, and primarily want to play games, the 7800x3d is the one you want right now - it still tops all the game benchmark performance charts, and uses remarkably little power. On special, it's also cheaper - though you'll likely need a new motherboard..
The 7900x3d is a bit better for non-gamers. Benchmarks on stuff like file compression or video conversion will go something like 20% faster on that chip for some benchmarks - since it DOES have more cores. The reason it doesn't work as well in games is because they didn't package the memory on the chip so the cores can switch efficiently - so it's great at bulldozing on single-minded work, but really dynamic content like most games, it builds up a bit of lag switching tasks.
I went 7800x3d, since I needed a new motherboard anyway - it's my first primary system that I put AMD in. I haven't had any issues with it, combined with a Nvidia 3080.
See? …. I proved his point :-)
