Ryzen 7 9800X3D next month?

Watched a bit live last night. They missed out LN2 mode for a while which caused some delays. Not quite the heights of MSI, but this was a bone stock retail version they estimate. The voltages weren't even that high IMO.

Did they get it to 1.21 jiggahurts?

They played with fire, that's for sure.

I'm pretty sure Joe is a relative of Bert Kibbler though.

Had a trawl through some youtube benchmarks, and thought I'd compile this (version of which is probably available to GN/HU/etc patrons) to show the relative performance increase you could see through the X3D versions (and a 5700 as comparison) at 1080p with an RTX4090 to rule out GPU bottlenecks.

Now that's fantastic. I can't be the only one worried that certain audiences are going to miss the satire part though

I'm aiming for 8k next year, as Moore's Law says computing power will double every 2 years, and I've had my 7800X3D for a year and my 4090 for longer than that, so my gaming resolution can surely double also

You're way behind. 8K became reality with the 3090, I remember the promo's.

You should be aiming for around 32K by now.... at least. Get it on a 28" screen though, so that you can really appreciate the detail with the naked eye.

Jokes aside I remember when the GTX1000 series were released saying 8k wasn’t that far off!
