Hm... I have to say this felt really lukewarm to me.
Sure, I appreciate having the 5800X with the 3D cache instead of upselling the working chiplets, but not even a hint for a lower SKU with it feels bad, lol. Let's hope pricing is not stupid. They are comparing it to the 12900K, so that alone gives me a really bad feeling for pricing. I'm also reading between the lines that CPU is gonna be hot; or hotter, I should say. There's a reson they had to shave off some Hertz from it and I doubt it's power consumption alone. Anyway, it remains to be seen. At least it looks like the performance is there if you can keep it cool enough to allow PBO to run at higher clocks. And I don't think power consumption will be that bad. It'll just be hot, I'm sure.
And everything else feels so far away that it's kind of a non-starter. Not even a mention to RDNA3 stuff!
Oh welp. Patience I guess?
Regards.
