    still havent gotten used to the new naming structure…

    Nice, dropped 80 watts and lost 3 fps. Can get the same effect by underclocking a 14900k by 100-200mhz gg Intel. 

  3. So they removed HT to get better single core performance and still failed to beat previous generation in gaming? That’s huge blunder, hope it’s fake because I don’t want single company to dominate desktop CPU market too.

    120W 7800X3D and this. Intel should just give up on efficient gaming.

  5. Careless-Midnight-63

    Another wasted generation, 9800x3d is my last hope.

    Didn’t knew i9-14900k takes 500W+, that’s crazy

  7. Lets hope Intel wil feel their incompetence in their wallets. They have been a shitty company from the start. Especially with all the bribes and just plain ignoring elephants in the room.

  8. Well, seems like 7800x3d is not going to get cheaper anytime soon

    Man, just give up already. I hope AMD doing this comeback with GPU market. And intel foucs on GPU also.

    Maybe they want to bring back consumer overclocking, where the option is there, but at stock they will be cool and energy efficient. The reputation of Intel chips being power hungry and hot, might be something they want to shake off

    Seems to be like what AMD did from 7xxx to 9xxx, with the exception that we do not know yet what 9800x3d will provide

    I’m no Intel fan but similar FPS and a 80w less power is somewhat of a win. At least they aren’t going higher in power draw. Anyway it’s way too early to tell

    Seems pretty bad tbh, very productivity oriented but probably terrible in terms of price/performance for gaming applications compared to AMD. Kind of a shame considering that AMD too fumbled quite a bit.

  14. Do games really get CPU bottlenecked these days? (On a system where “only” half of the budget is in the GPU)

    You don’t buy these chips for gaming. They are suited for single core performance and workstations. The same goes for the i9-13900 and i9-14900 chips.

    Hope they improve next gen more. I don’t want to pay 1000$ for AMD CPU.

    Well looks like 7800X3D prices aren’t going to go down …
