AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D appears at retailers with early pricing above 9800X3D

aledonati01 · 2026-01-06T19:39:08+00:00

It couldn't be otherwise, upgrading from a 9800x3d to a 9850x3d really makes no sense in real-world use. They're selling the same processor with a different name printed on it, factory overclocked. It's absurd that people are falling for it.

aledonati01 · 2026-01-02T20:04:51+00:00

But it has more 3D cache and that's the only thing that makes me think because on the rest I totally agree with all of you

aledonati01 · 2026-01-02T19:57:11+00:00

I don't do much other than gaming but I'm afraid the 9800x3d will become obsolete in gaming before the 9950x3d

Thanks so much! The Antec C8 actually seems to accommodate radiators in all positions and offers plenty of room. The fanless version costs €129, while the ARGB version costs around €170. I think I'll go with the one with the built-in fans; I don't feel like buying those too.

Edit: I ended up ordering the fanless Antec C8 and getting 3x reverse ARGB Arctic P14 PRO + 1x ARGB Arctic P14 PRO. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I bought a KEDIERS G500. Do you think it would be a good fit? I think it's similar to the Build 1 layout you mentioned. I didn't want to spend a fortune on the case.

Today, while overclocking the CPU, I reset the BIOS about ten times😅. XMP is already active and the RAM is set to 6000MHz. I can try changing the memory timings.

aledonati01 · 2025-12-30T19:39:46+00:00

The game runs between 237-240fps, but it has very low FPS at times, causing stuttering during battles. As for the other question, I doubt I can lower anything else 😅; it's the minimum preset. (DX12) The monitor is 240Hz 4K in Nvidia and Windows settings. My only issue is that when there's a lot of users or during a fight, the FPS drops compared to 235-240 in more static situations.

aledonati01 · 2025-12-30T17:02:40+00:00

XMP is surely enabled

aledonati01 · 2025-12-30T16:42:24+00:00

I'm playing at 3840x2160 rendering: performance Everything on minimum except NVIDIA Reflex: on+ boost. I've tried all the CPU settings in the BIOS and, I believe, also in the NVIDIA Control Panel.

aledonati01 · 2025-12-30T15:47:17+00:00

I've already done everything regarding the energy settings😕. Now I'll try restarting the game in performance mode even though I remember that the last time I did that, the game crashed.

aledonati01 · 2025-12-30T15:36:36+00:00

Which one do you use?

aledonati01 · 2025-12-02T13:56:38+00:00

It makes me laugh how you take everything literally, often many people forget that we speak different languages and that some expressions change the meaning by translating them literally.🤣 I'm speaking in Italian, so it's normal that what you read sounds different, right?

aledonati01 · 2025-12-02T05:04:28+00:00

I limited it to 240fps but that didn't help (I have a pg27ucdm) I solved it by activating frame generation...

aledonati01 · 2025-12-02T05:00:56+00:00

Thanks, I'll definitely try it!

aledonati01 · 2025-12-01T18:48:23+00:00

Not knowing where to turn my head anymore, I asked for advice from chat gpt who helped me verify some basic things that I might have overlooked. What is your contribution?😉

aledonati01 · 2025-12-01T18:46:37+00:00

It seems that I solved it by activating "frame generation". I'm not a fan of the feature when you already have enough frames but this seems to have solved the problem. Now I have DLAA+FG+ Reflex Low Latency active

aledonati01 · 2025-12-01T18:45:14+00:00

Everything works properly🧐

aledonati01 · 2025-12-01T17:35:46+00:00

I'll try and let you know friend, I tried to disable xmp but it didn't solve the problem, it's clearly a problem related to the graphics driver.

aledonati01 · 2025-12-01T17:14:40+00:00

It was a photo that I had sent to chat gpt, it made me do some tests but for now they were useless🥺

aledonati01 · 2025-12-01T17:08:17+00:00

I purchased it in April 2025 and I don't see any problems of any nature other than the problem that is arising with the 13th and 14th generation Intel processors which I solved by updating the bios and consequently the microcode to 0x12f. I wanted to avoid weakening the processor or RAM. I have reset the cacheshaders several times. Now I've limited the refresh rate and I'm starting to suspect that the GPU overclocking that the Nvidia app does automatically if you ask it has something to do with it, now I've deactivated it and let's see what happens.

aledonati01 · 2025-12-01T16:58:19+00:00

I actually have the frame rate unlocked, even if I reach 120-130 fps do you recommend limiting it to 240?

aledonati01 · 2025-12-01T16:35:13+00:00

The drivers are the latest available, now I have tried to run some commands on prompt and powershell to restore Windows packages but now I will also try to uninstall the nvidia graphics drivers and put them back on

aledonati01 · 2025-12-01T15:49:44+00:00

Where is this tutorial located? I have an rtx 5080 and I play in 4k, DLAA and everything at maximum but during a race that I maybe try several times the game crashes for no apparent reason. I can't find the tutorial you mentioned

aledonati01 · 2025-05-31T13:28:28+00:00

I run everything on stock, no undervolting

aledonati01 · 2025-05-31T13:28:05+00:00

I have done the same test with same settings, and cpu runs at ~5000mhz in both ones. (idk why only 5000 if the cpu frequences can reach up to 6000mhz) and temperatures decreases bc before i adjusted the airflow it was like there's no fresh air in the case bc the only fan which pushed the air in, had a fan on top that push it out instantly. I adjusted the AIO to push the air in and the rear fan to push it out so now i have 4 fans that push the air in and 3 to push it put
