Indeed, that's Lakefield as seen in the Intel Core i5-L16G7.
The Scheduler changes (in Windows 11 at least) make it extremely pleasant to use on the Lenovo X1 Fold, even if there're some drivers problems (fortunately easy to fix: https://csdvrx.github.io/ https://csdvrx.github.io/ )
- smolder 4y ago> (in Windows 11 at least) That seems to answer my (sibling to yours) comments question. Perhaps the 7800x3d is the only sku unbothered by older OSs, then.
- _rs 4y agoI was thinking of buying a 5800X3D for my gaming rig (as it is already AM4). Am I reading correctly that I might need to upgrade to Windows 11 to get the full benefits of it?
- philliphaydon 4y ago5800x3d should work fine on everything. The 7800x3d should also work fine. It’s the 7900/7950 that may not run well cos of the 3d stacking only on 1 ccd. So one has it and one doesn’t and that may cause issues.
- smolder 4y agoNo, only the 7950x3d and 7900x3d from AMD have this property of asymmetrical cores. This is a new thing for AMD. For the 5800x3d, or the 7800x3d, it's only 1 CCD so there's no asymmetry, and no scheduler accomodations are needed. Likewise, any non-x3d chips are symmetrical.
