This review of the AMD Ryzen 9 7900 tests for efficiency first-and-foremost, as it's significantly improved over the stock R9 7900X. The thermals are also much improved and, although you could get the 7900X to the same numbers by using Eco Mode, this one is significantly cheaper by MSRP alone -- street prices obviously vary. The AMD Ryzen 9 7900 vs. 7900X benchmarks are our first comparison, with the 13700K, 13600K, and Ryzen 5 7600 standing as alternatives in our review.

Great vid again. It's been on my mind to do an ECC enabled GPU vs non ECC ram-based GPU comparison for stability during insane rendering and 24 hour tests in the near future, unless you want to do it :)

@RetiredEE Год назад

Thanks Steve! Quick question: since the power diff between this CPU and the Intel 13700 is so great, does it make sense to add some generic annual power cost, perhaps based on say 4 hours per day at some avg kw/hr energy cost? Should electricity costs jump, this might be a handy way to get a ballpark estimate of yearly operating costs of an Eco-gaming setup vs. a full-tilt state of the art gaming powerhouse. Is the difference $100 a year? $500? More? It can also help identify parts for power conscientious builds, helpful for power limited locations i.e. off-grid solar. Helps with sizing ups power backups too. As an aside, it also helps to teach younger folks some concepts which may serve them well later in business careers. Power budgets are useful for business and engineering. Always room for another column in Excel. Keep up the great work!

Why the 7900X and 7900 even have a different name. The results here proves that the new AM5 socket doesn't make sense. They moved to AM5 for better power delivery and as we see here the no difference between the 7900 and 7900X suggests that there was no need to an improved power delivery socket

Not really. Power consumption is not linear to computing power. Limiting a CPU by a small percentage will immediately indicate much lower performance. To really compare efficiency, you first need to get all CPUs up to the same compute rate. Only then can you compare... Unfortunately, the way these tests are carried out does not say much.

We already knew this though. These new chips are essentially just the X versions with eco mode enabled, and tests with Eco 65 show pretty much the same thing. In fact, even the 13900K matches the stock 12900K's performance with the power limit set to 85W. Zen 4 and Intel 13th gen are not inefficient at normal TDPs, only high ones.

I mean if you take 13700KF and tweak it the same way you gonna reduce consumption by about 40-50% while losing minimal performance, that's how all CPUs work but Intel doesn't care about efficiency focused chips, it let users do it, so just do your own work

@earthtaurus5515 Год назад

If you use negative curve optimiser, set a static voltage of 1.3 volts as this will give alot more tweaking room with PBO. Not many techtubers mention setting a static voltage, that's something I came across testing on my 7950X.

@ScottJWaldron Год назад

@@earthtaurus5515 I see, I'd have to look into that (voltage vs. frequency?) curve optimization software to understand what it is and does in practice to know what you are talking about. I normally go with things stock so it works as reliably as possibly from the start without a lot of time spent. Right now I'm on an old i7-6700 gtx 1060 build that just works super reliably though definitely showing its age in photo and video editing. I'm sure you can dial things in to make it completely stable but I'd imagine that takes some time. Thanks for the tip!

@earthtaurus5515 Год назад

@@ScottJWaldron No problem 😁. Sure by all means you should do alot more research 👍🏽. The curve optimisation is a bios setting and you can use Ryzen Master I believe. On stock on both AM4 and AM5 way too much voltage is shoved into the cores at 1.5 volts.... 🤦🏽‍♂by motherboard OEMs which is absolutely nuts. Undervolting is a must on AM4 and AM5 especially if you want to avoid CPU degradation on lower quality silicon. But others will say this not an issue when it is a very much an issue. On my 7950X out of the box all cores could boost to 5.7 Ghz now after prolonged testing on stock to isolate memory issues. Now only 2 cores can boost past 5.7 Ghz. These memory issues resemble what would occur with Zen / Zen + at higher memory clock frequencies (6000+ in this case). In terms of voltage vs frequency - the traditional thinking really doesn't apply at all on AM5 and to a lesser extent AM4. As it's all about the thermal headroom, the higher it is - higher the boost on AM4. Sure you can OC AM4 as you normally would. But AM5 is a completely different beast entirely. It will hit the roof in terms of thermals if you try to OC it using the core multiplier (as you would normally do with other CPUs) - it hits 100 degrees c immediately even if the OC is set 5 or 5.3 Ghz (Therefore bclk overclocking on AM5 is quite useless for daily usage for those who do cpu intensive workloads daily). But that doesn't mean the CPU is generating heat at 100 degrees c, it's the thermal wall. Regardless it will hit that pretty quickly and start to throttle especially on anything less than a 360 AIO. On AM5 In regards to 'PBO Tuning' I recommend setting PBO boost per core (with ~25 Mhz less than limit indicated by the motherboard. As just setting a boost limit of 5.7 or 5.6 Ghz doesn't mean all cores will boost to that. For example If the motherboard reports a core can boost to 5585. Set it to 5555 at most. With Hwinfo set to 20 ms cycles you will see it will rarely boost to 5555 but it will get you over the 5.5 Ghz barrier. For better boosting performance it's best to set all cores to the same limit. Then increase the thermal limit or leave it at default of 95 degrees c. I've limited mine to 80 degrees c and max CPU package power is ~167 watts no matter the workload or duration. CCD 1 never exceeds ~87 and CCD 2 ~82 degrees. Once you've dialled in a base line then increase the boost then increase the boost of each core one by one. As at some point you will see a boost drop off. The undervolting tweaks should work on Intel's CPUs too. But I have zero experience with e-cores and settings so your mileage will vary.

He compared them with his early 7950x, etc review. As I recall the 7900X ran blender at about 92C, compared to 95C TJmax. Don't know how I remembered details like that. So using the absolute best non-radiator sized cooler it was slightly below max temperature. Basically it's running at max.

@heeerrresjonny Год назад

Yeah I came to make the same comment. I thought it was very strange that they left out the 5900x and 5950x, especially on the Blender power efficiency chart where they have the R5 2600. Obviously it wouldn't make sense for most people to upgrade from a 5900x or 5950x to the 7000 series right now, but not everything needs to be hyper focused on purely purchase decisions. It's just... interesting to see how they compare. Also, even if you do want to stick to purchase decisions as a driver for the content, maybe someone who has a decent AM4 system wants to answer "should I do an in place upgrade to 5950x or jump to AM5 with the 7900?" etc...

@recklesssquirel5962 Год назад

For home-NAS systems and even gaming machines, it would give users an idea of how much power they'll be pulling with their system when they leave it idle.

I'd have liked to see the charts consistently list the AMD and Intel equivalent prior generational chips, I don't see the 39xx or the 59xx chips show up consistently in the charts for the 7000 reviews, they are there in a few charts but I would have found it far more useful to see the differences for the previous generation 9 Series chips rather than the R5 or R7 chips which are more consistent in showing up. I sort of expected the 9 series not to be in the 7600 or 7700 reviews but had hoped that the 7900 or all R9 reviews to contain comparisons to the previous generational R9 series chips to show up in all the charts for the R9 series. This would have made the review information far more meaningful for comparison as to what all the factors are for updating generationally.

I know without any benchmarks that 2600 would be destroyed in performance by 7900. What's the point of making one video for each new CPU if you don't show how it compares to last gen, especially when you cry all the time about "stagnation" and % per $ in reviews. It actually starts to irritate me a little bit with GN reviews when you have to find one specific video (usually last one) where you can see every new chip on same graph. It's fine when it's just released, but when you try to check old reviews (because not everyone buys on release) it takes 2-3 tries to see the difference and make a decision.

Not sure why that isn't included, is there something obvious I'm missing?

@lareponse42 Год назад

While this is true, scientifically speaking, GN made a video some time ago reviewing PBO on many AMD CPUs. The take-home message was: PBO almost does nothing on CPUs where thermals are not a extremely hard constraint. You may have seen the other non-X Ryzen tests, where PBO doesn't change performance (at most a few percents), basically because they were reduced from TDP 105W to 65W, the drop in thermal constraint was not even sufficient to show any difference using PBO. On the 7900 though, the performance drop from TDP 170W to 65W is big enough to notice a difference when PBO is turned on. So when the CPU is thermally unconstrained from the beginning, GN noticed that it really doesn't make any difference. That's probably why the Ryzen X-series is not tested with PBO.
