Im still thinking about switching to Intel and obviously every single review mentions how hot this CPU can get. Thing is: This is mostly at STOCK SETTINGS and in BENCHMARKS. How about real world usage? Can anyone share his experience with this CPU and with reasonable powerlimits/undervolting? Im also planning to use my aircooler, a Noctua u12A. My goal is to keep the PC quiet, would this be possible with aircooling and a bit of fiddling in BIOS? Im cool as long as I could keep the RPM under 1000 much like I do right now on my Ryzen CPU.
its an intel cpu, so its the best cpu money can buy. it performs extremely well under load and at idle. ryzen both consume more at idle and are harder to cool for x3d chips thanks to an added cache layer between the die and heatsink.
my nhd15 is whisper quiet, during games i limit the fans to 60％, this lets m do 5600mhz all cores with a pl1/2 or 220 watts all while being quiet. my old 5800x3d was giving more hadaches and that was the best.amd cpu in 20years.
intel has no competition and nver had since athlon. id legit want an i5 over an 7950x3d or anything amd.
did intel pay you to write this comment
what？ no i just fell for team red marketing and bought a 5800x3d . please be my guest and go get a ryzen. the more you ll use ryzen, the more youll find out. and when you become like me just sell the ryzen back to some other sucker so he too can find out.
