A leaked Intel PowerPoint compared the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU’s gaming performance to that of the top-tier Core i9-14900K processor. The official performance benchmarks, which compare the Ryzen 9 7950X3D and Intel Core i9-14900K, are a part of a presentation that was leaked by HXL. This is one of the most intriguing comparisons that have surfaced ahead to the official launch, which is scheduled for October 16 at 21:00 Eastern Standard Time. Both of these players are considered the best in their respective camps.
The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU and Intel Core i9-14900K Raptor Lake Refresh CPU have been compared in a number of games at 1080P High settings.
To ensure that the CPU is the main bottleneck, these settings have been chosen. Despite the fact that the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D is being used, it should be kept in mind that the Ryzen 7 7800X3D does provide slightly better performance in some games due to its single CCD 3D V-Cache configuration as opposed to the dual CCDs on the 7950X3D, which means that the application must determine and choose which core is better suited for the workload.
In terms of the figures, the Intel Core i9-14900K CPU outperformed the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU in 9 out of the 25 games, while 14 of the 25 games favored the Intel Core i9-14900K CPU. In games like Metro Exodus (+23%), Starfield (+23%), Total War: Warhammer (+22%), Ashes of The Singularity (+15%), and CSGO (+14%), the 14900K exhibited double-digit increases, however the 7950X3D was faster in eSports games like DOTA 2 and Fortnite.
Given that the Intel Core i9-14900K is anticipated to cost almost the same as the Core i9-13900K, the fact that it is, on average, 200 MHz faster than the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D is impressive. As a result, you will receive improved performance without having to pay more. It all depends on what best meets your needs since both chips will be priced relatively similarly. When replacing an older 12th Gen CPU, the 14900K may be a viable option because it can be installed on the same socket, but the AM5 socket is unquestionably the best option because it will allow Ryzen CPUs from future generations.
