It's a bit disappointing that they are only refreshing one mid-range CPU. I would have jumped on a 5950X3D to extend the life of the AM4 platform but this 5800X

It's a bit disappointing that they are only refreshing one mid-range CPU. I would have jumped on a 5950X3D to extend the life of the AM4 platform but this 5800X3D doesn't appear to be much of an upgrade besides gaming.
- fgonzag 5y agoIt makes sense if you look at AMD's reasoning. They state it's intended to be the "World’s Fastest Gaming Processor", so a single chiplet CPU makes sense. It seems this is a bit of a market tester, as they also state that productivity workloads will be either impacted negatively or not at all because of the slightly lower clock speed. I hope if this product does well we'll get the other models with the same cache configuration.
