Im really disliking the current intel prices and was wondering about new Gen AMD, if they are on-par or better than intel input lag wise - or are they plauged by the same issues?
Any timer issues?
I would hands down recommend a X3D (not the normal lineup) to anyone who is buying a new gaming PC. I went from a 5900X to a 13900K and then to a 7950X3D. Even though the 13900k and 7950X are similar in performance, the X3D cache legitimately just makes games feel better. There is no way to describe it, they're much more fluid. Obviously not recommending a 7950X3D, but rather 5600-7800X3D are well worth the money and until Intel puts a bigger cache on their parts (which I believe is Meteor Lake), I will continue to recommend them.
While it's a very specific usage case, in OW2, I went from 530fps on average to 590 (the cap is at 600) going from 13900k to 7950X3D. When I utilize the Freq cores instead of Cache, I run around 510 instead of 590. Due to the way the game is programmed it's hard to capture 1% and .1% reliably.
Games honestly just feel a lot better. The only problem is there are weird nuances you have to put up with, I assume most people buy a 7950X3D know that, other CPUs not so much. I'm still trying to iron out some of my input and have a weird triple line that now has appeared after updating to the latest Windows version due to the input coalescing changes. I haven't tried using another USB card.
