Review: Great upgrade from 13900 - I am very impressed with performance uplift in games coming from last gen 13900k. Despite reviewers YouTubers claiming is almost same. I still bought it and will never regret it
Review: I knew going in that this CPU has a reputation for high temperatures, and that there was a famous bug (which was fixed) that damaged or destroyed some 13th and 14th generation processors. Neither of those things has been a problem for me. I updated my motherboard with the latest bios before installing the CPU, that way there was no risk of being affected by the bug. I also went water cooling which has kept my CPU at about 35c under normal use, and 70-80c under heavy load. Performance wise, this thing is a beast, but it's somewhat specialized. It's truly exceptional at multitasking, but "just" excellent at gaming. This makes sense: it has 24 cores, but it doesn't have the cache of something like a 7800x3d (which only has 8 cores). At anything multitasking, this thing is unreal. I sometimes run really intensive programs and then forget that they're running in the background because you can't even tell because the foreground applications are still running at full speed. If what you do is heavily based around multitasking, then there's probably not a better chip that money can buy, but that's a very specialized need. I bought it because I wanted the 24 cores (there's just something cool about having 24 cores) and because my main use case is productivity rather than games, but that's a pretty specialized need. In gaming, this thing actually also excels, but just looking at the benchmarks, it can't quite keep up with something like the 7800x3d. So if your use case is entirely or mainly gaming, you should get the 7800x3d instead. Still, I don't want to downplay this thing's gaming performance, because it does have really excellent gaming performance. It just can't compare to the 7800x3d. So if you use your computer mainly for gaming then this processor might not make sense for you, even though it does do really well in games. During normal household type use (web browsing), this thing is only a bit faster than any old CPU, so again if you mainly game, you're unlikely to notice the speed difference outside of games if you go with a 7800x3d. On the other hand, if what you're doing is mostly heavy productivity, and especially if it involves multitasking and multithreading, then this thing is going to kill the 7800x3d. This CPU normally runs in the 5-6ghz range. It downclocks to 1ghz when not in heavy use, but its regular state when you're actively using it is 5-6ghz, which is frankly pretty impressive. It's not joking about that 6ghz stuff. Sure, you might not hit exactly 6ghz that often, but you will run at 5.6ghz+ all the time. CPU cooling and power usage requirements are somewhat exaggerated. I use AIO, and I've never seen it go above 70-80c. Granted, I've seen many benchmarks where it goes above that, but for me personally, 99% of the time my CPU idles at 35c, with spikes up to maybe 50c under regular load. I have to be doing something intensive to get it up into the 70-80 range. I am using AIO, so you might experience something different if you use an air cooler. I haven't encountered any stability issues at all with this chip. Just the opposite, it seems to work great. I even waited to post this review to see if any issues cropped up, but nothing has. There are basically no major downsides to this CPU at this point. The nicest thing about this chip is actually something small: everything is just a bit faster. Everything. Even though each small action might only be a bit faster, the fact that they're all faster adds up to a weirdly much smoother and nicer experience across everything I do. Even using webpages or typing out text is just a little snappier, and it just feels nice every time. The little things matter, they can add up. Sure, it's not mindblowing, but the fact that simple things like moving around a window or scrolling a webpage is just a little snappier makes everything I do on my computer nicer. This is another place where I think this CPU is going to have an advantage over the 7800x3d: I think it's the 24 cores that are having an impact here. So it really comes down to this: are you going to use 24 cores? Do you want 24 cores? Or, are you mainly going to play video games? If you're going to play video games, get the 7800x3d. If 24 cores and 6ghz sounds cool to you, then get this.
