The 4 extra cores will help with streaming. Interestingly, the 3700X pushed power usage just 7 watts higher than the 3600 despite packing twice as many cores as the 3300X.Of course, if you’re on a tight budget where every last dollar counts, then worry about future gaming performance might be less of a concern, and therefore saving $50 by getting the 3300X might be the preferred solution. Most of you don’t want to waste money overinvesting in a CPU you’ll never fully use.

90th 95th and 99th percentile are used in tandem with the averages to make up for that shortcoming. It will have the same 105-watt TDP as the 3900X and 3800X. Still, just tells you just how efficient AMD’s 7nm Ryzen 3000 CPUs are. This is often justified in the name of future proofing or for users who mix work and play, in those scenarios Ryzen can pull double duty beautifully.Picking the right Ryzen CPU for productivity tasks is fairly straightforward. But when you start talking about gaming performance, things get a tad muddier. That said, while the 3900X will reduce the render time from the 3700X by 33%, we’re only seeing a 22% reduction when jumping up to the 3950X from the 3900X. You need absolutely need a liquid cooler for the Ryzen 9 3900X to get the best performance.All the games were tested at the highest in-game graphics preset unless otherwise specified.Metro Exodus sees the Ryzen 9 3900X perform almost identical to the 3700X but manages better lows than the latter. If time is money, then the 3950X makes sense, but here we see diminishing returns past the Ryzen 9 3900X.Then from the 3700X to the 3900X we see another massive 47% performance jump, and then we’re back to a 21% increase with the Ryzen 9 3950X. Here’s a look at the average performance across the half dozen games tested and how that translates into cost per frame.Next up we have Ghost Recon Breakpoint and this is a good example of a game that’s not particularly sensitive on the CPU side, assuming you have at the very least a decent quad-core with SMT support, which is exactly what you get with the 3300X.This is where the "futureproof" argument comes into play.
If fact, in my experience it’s the 3600X is the sweet spot. POV-Ray 3.7.

The 16-core, 32-thread 3950X isn’t well leveraged here, so let’s take a look at the decompression results which do make far better use of SMT.Before we get to the gaming tests, here’s a quick look at total system consumption.

However, Borderlands 3 is another story altogether. 12 x 3.8GHz vs 8 x 3.9GHz

Beyond six cores though, there is little to be gained.The 3900X is the most power hungry processor, and while you might expect that honor to go to the 3950X, due to a binning process that sees AMD reserve the best silicon for the 3950X, the 16-core processor is able to operate at lower voltages and therefore consume less power.This is scaling more in line with our Cinebench R20 results, where we see a 50% increase in core count, going from the 3300X to the 3600 and from the 3700X to the 3900X we see a ~50% increase in performance or thereabouts.The 7-zip compression results are interesting as this test doesn’t take full advantage of SMT (simultaneous multithreading), at least for the higher core count parts. 14 hours ago. Some of those margins will be influenced by frequency, but overall pretty much what you’d expect to see.© 2020 TechSpot, Inc. All Rights Reserved.Blender can also take full advantage of core-heavy processors, right up to the 64-core Threadripper 3990X. They don’t account for the lags or FPS drops (if any) and as such can be misleading at times. You played too much MMORPG. )Cant pick a class = weak rpg? These cookies do not store any personal information.The same trend continues through the rest of the benchmarks with most titles benefitting from the higher boost clock of the 3900X but a few namely Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and Hitman 2 just don’t scale well with the 12-core behemoth and prefer the octa-core 3700X over it.Yeah, thanks.
