Nasty Big Pointy Teeth Edition

Top Story

  • The first two Ryzen 9000 CPUs are here and....  Hmm.  (AnandTech)

    Compared to the Ryzen 7700X, the new 9700X is typically 13% faster on single-threaded integer benchmarks, and 27% faster on floating point, while cutting the power consumption by 40% from 105W to 65W.

    On multi-threaded benchmarks things are less rosy, with the new chip only being 5% faster in some tasks.

    That makes it look like the power has been cut a little too much.

    We'll soon see, because the 9900X should appear next week, with 50% more cores but a TDP 85% higher at 120W.

    So right now the 9700X is a fast chip that outruns Intel's 14600K at most tasks while using less than half the power, but not a remarkable chip.
