News AMD Ryzen 9000X3D rumored to reverse the 3D stacking hierarchy — the L3 cache block allegedly sits below the CCDs

Intels new processor just sucks.

I hard disagree there. its matches the 9950x in performance +-5% and is either similarly efficient or more efficient in certain key tasks. I am also not going to go into a deep argument about that though because this thread is about the 9800X3D, not the Intel Ultra 2X5k CPUs.

The above is true, BUT, when 2 cpus are matching (and let's face it, the 285k is overall more efficient), the one with amd on the box is good, the one with intel is trash. It's common knowledge, I don't know why you are in disagreement.

I am not getting a 9800X3D because its an 8 core sidegrade to what I have at 4k gaming and probably only marginally better at the other things I do.

That’s what my post implied as well.
