News AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D beats the 7800X3D by 26% in leaked Blender benchmarks — outpaces even the current-generation Ryzen 7 9700X by 11%

All of these leaks are just marketing from AMD because they never leak gaming benchmarks. Slow drip somewhat relevant performance numbers but save the ones everyone wants for launch day.

You are correct actually. I forgot they were using baselines... Dohhh!

Yeap, that's why it's crazy to me why they retain the r7 moniker. What's wrong with using R3 for the 6core parts and R7 for the 8 core parts. I would be less negative have they done that.

Currently, 8 cores are more than enough for typical gamers.

R3 for the 6 core, R5 for the 8 core, R7 for the 12 core, and R9 for the 16 core would make the most sense to me personally, but I agree with you. That would make the most sense if they were naming their product stack purely on MT performance.

If you're using any sort of CPU to run Blender you're doing it wrong.

true engineers run Blender on their GPUs, amirite?
