is AMD 7600X good? (Compared to any Intel for example)

[tawdry spear]

in terms of gaming, amd's x3d chips come out on top, but the rest still perform well

[high raptor]

7600x is better in games than a 13400f

[jade trench]

imma go look into the 5800x3d rn bcz thats still on am4

[high raptor]

performs about equal to the 7600x

they trade blows, 5800x3d winning in cache heavy games, 7600 in everything else

[jade trench]

what are considered cache heavy games?

[high raptor]

uhh sim games mostly

[jade trench]

cities skylines probably

[high raptor]

as in simulation

[high raptor]

https://www.techspot.com/review/2592-ryzen-5800x3D-vs-ryzen-7600x/

50 game benchmark if you want to look for specific titles

assuming you already have an am4 mobo? which one if so?

[jade trench]

i have an old intel mobo that i'm looking to replace

any socket is possible at this point

[high raptor]

oh okay, don’t get the 5800x3d then

7600x is equal and puts you on a newer chipset

[jade trench]

yh that

[high raptor]

if you already had a solid am4 mobo then the 5800x3d is a viable choice but for new builds 7600x/am5 would be the move

[jade trench]

btw i got a i7-8700 rn but my main issue is that i have some medion z370h4-em motherboard that has been bringing me problems everywhere so thats mainly why

so i think for future proofing an am5 motherboard would be best

[high raptor]

yeah pretty much all b650 boards can handle even the high end chips

[jade trench]

wait hold on

are all am5 chipsets with ddr5?

oof

i dont think thats gonna work then

oh yh ryzen 7000 series is just ddr5 only

alright well then ig its back to the 5800x3d then?

[high raptor]

nah, the 7600x is $80 cheaper than the 5800x3d

that gets you 32gb ddr5

[jade trench]

yh but the motherboards are about 100$ more expensive

[high raptor]

what country?

[jade trench]

netherlands

[high raptor]

ahh

were you planning on reusing ram? if so what speed is it? @jade trench

[jade trench]

32gb 3200 but my motherboard actually limited it to 2133 so i've never even been able to experience its potential 😂

motherboard rly the worst part of my entire pc

[high raptor]

https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/KqCkVw

even having to buy ddr5 they dont differ that much in price, only 30 euro difference @jade trench

[high raptor]

ahhh that sucks

[hollow totem]

nice ram speed blud

[hearty vortex]

let's see

[hearty vortex]

if you already have the ram you could just go 5800x3d or 13600k

[jade trench]

I've gone back to the 7600x idea

i'll show in a few seconds

https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/JynzTn

I think the cpu cooler might be overkill

Chose the motherboard for the wifi integration bcz im one of those people

Memory was actually same price for 400MHz more

[high raptor]

x isnt worth the extra over the non x, ps120 is on par (or even beats) the ak620

https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/kX3s9r

https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/M6qHPX
alternatively you could stick with your current ram and get a 13600k

for strictly gaming the 7600 comes close to a 13600k with ddr4 so if that’s all your doing i’d get the 7600

[jade trench]

people keep recommending me thermalright but i cant buy them

[hallow maple]

why

[jade trench]

alot of them arent sold here in nl

and i dont like purchasing from amazon

Is the Deepcool AK400 a good alternative?

basically same price as the Phantom Spirit

[high raptor]

its worse

ak620 would be about on par with it

ak400 is basically.. half the cooler

[jade trench]

I have this list of my current pc combining with the upgrade i want to get (those are the ones with prices on them)

https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/xmHZgb

But there's a bit of a thing here

Does this mean i need another cable or that the PSU doesn't have enough slots?

I was thinking i need another cable but i just want to be sure

[pallid scarab]

it depends on the price and total platform cost (you will pay more for a quality motherboard and ddr5), however in terms on price/performance ratio, AMD can be as good as intel

[jade trench]

oh i'm sorry this ticket is already a few days old

I posted in this ticket bcz of my last question

Maybe i should've made a new one...

[pallid scarab]

its important to note that AMD non-X series may achieve very impressive power usage efficiency and low temperatures, compared to intel's 13th gen

[hearty vortex]

in gaming get the 7600 over the 13600k

[jade trench]

^^ i was talking about the PSU stuff on pcpartpicker

[hollow totem]

unlikely

[jade trench]

unlikely i'd need another cable?
