16 percent with a 4090
Not everyone just games and not everyone has a top of the line gpu lol
besides, that's not even the fastest Intel gaming cpu, which is 14900k. which you absolutely shouldn't buy.
microcenter has even cheaper 7800X3D combo for $599.
I have been using Intel all my life, but nothing is that responsive to gaming like 7800X3D or better whichi tried. Just butter smooth no matter what you play...
Until Intel launches Nova lake, for me that doesn't pay off to buy... unless you render videos mostly, and you need quick sync, and you Game occasionally. Intel is just way worse...in gaming
Also, synthetic benchmarks don't tell the whole story. I upgraded from a 12900K to a 9800x3d because e-cores are still a logistical problem. At best, you're tinkering with process lasso or core director. At worst, you're still getting stutter because reasons.
Also, total system latency is lower on the x3d.
this is false
ASUS naming this B650 motherboard as B650-E is somewhat deceptive.
Still a very solid deal. Not having PCIe Gen5 for gpu is not really an overall lost since GPUs have yet to fully use Gen4 bandwidth for the most part.

It's not true 1% lower is much better with 9800x3d. The reality is if you play 4K you won't need 9800x3d, 1440p mayb, 1080p GET IT. the extra bucks you spend on it might as well to get a better gpu. In my case, I would still take 13700k to 14900k , cheaper, way better multi tasking.
