Ryzen 9 7950X3D beats Core i9-13900K by up to 33% in games
At CES 2023, AMD is expected to unveil the Ryzen 7000X3D processors. So far, three models are expected, although this is unofficial information.
Now there is data on the performance of the top Ryzen 9 7950X3D in games. The Overclock3D resource, referring to Quasar Zone data, claims that the Ryzen 9 7950X3D in games can outperform the Core i9-13900K by up to 33%!
True, there are two nuances. First, it is not known in what modes the tests were carried out. If this is a Full HD resolution when using a conditional GeForce RTX 4090, then the presence of such an increase is, of course, interesting, but almost does not make sense, since top-end configurations are often not used in such resolutions. Secondly, that very difference of 33% is the maximum. In which game it was achieved is not known, but it is known that in the other two games the difference was 15% and 5%.
Considering how much the Ryzen 7 5800X3D outperformed most CPUs in gaming, the impressive capabilities of the Ryzen 9 7950X3D are easy to believe. But still, we need to wait for the tests to understand the real alignment of forces, including in 2K and 4K resolutions.

AMD Ryzen 7000 processors have fallen in price in the US. 8-core Ryzen 7700X drops $104, top-end 16-core Ryzen 9 7950X drops $210
AMD Ryzen 7000 processors continue to get cheaper in the US, and from different retailers, and not somewhere in one place. So, prices have decreased on Amazon, and at Microcenter, and on the Newegg site.
The best deal on the Ryzen 7 7700X is $345. The processor dropped 104 dollars from the official price. For comparison, for its rival in the face of the Core i7-13700K in the US they ask for $418.
The 12-core Ryzen 9 7900X has fallen in price more – by $ 132: the cost has decreased from the official $ 550 to $ 418. That is, there is just price parity with the Core i7-13700K.
The top 16-core Ryzen 9 7950X dropped $211 from $800 to $589. For the Core i9-13900K in the US, they ask for only a little more – $ 598.
These are prices on the Amazon site, but Microcenter has about the same discounts. At the same time, the Newegg and Microcenter sites have already fallen in price and the latest 65-watt Ryzen 7700 – by $ 10, but nonetheless. Recall that the Ryzen 7000 (without the X index) was presented only in early January.

Read speed up to 10 GB/s and cooling system with a fan. Corsair Announces Flagship MP700 SSD with PCIe 5.0 Support
Corsair has announced its flagship M.2 SSD, the MP700. The novelty, apparently, will go on sale in the coming months, but its cost has not yet been reported.
But the maximum data transfer rates for sequential reading and writing are known – 10 and 9.5 GB / s, respectively. In the picture below, Corsair even compared its current top-end MP600 Pro XT SSD to the MP700. The difference is noticeable.
However, the MP700 will be able to fully realize its high-speed potential only on the latest platforms from AMD (with processor socket AM5) and Intel (based on 600 and 700 series chipsets). The creators talk about the use of 3D TLC NAND memory chips in the SSD and support for NVMe 2.0 M.2.
AMD promised SSDs with PCIe 5.0 support back in November last year, but in fact there are only a few such models on sale.

Noctua has unveiled the NH-L9a low profile cooler for AMD AM5 processors. It is compatible with 65W Ryzen 7000 CPUs
Noctua’s range of CPU coolers has been expanded with the NH-L9a model for AMD’s latest Ryzen 7000 processors. With a height of only 37 mm, the NH-L9a can be used in very compact cases.
Obviously, due to its compact size, the cooler’s ability to dissipate heat is seriously limited – it is suitable for cooling Ryzen 7000 processors with a TDP of 65W. The design is a low radiator with two heat pipes and a fan with a diameter of 92 mm. The regular version of the NH-L9a is priced at $45, while the all-black version costs $10 more.
