re: PC Discussion - Gaming, Performance and Enthusiasts

Two reasons. First, it’s a different test image:

We have two sets of benchmarks in the album above. All of our Windows 11 tests above were conducted with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090, and we'll build out all future test results with this platform. We recently updated our test image, so we have a limited selection of benchmarks that include the latest Intel 14th-Gen processors. However, you can use the relative positioning of the processors to gauge performance differences to older chips by comparing them to the much broader set of CPU benchmarks found in the following slides. We are also adding new benchmarks of the older CPUs to our new test suite, and these two lists will merge into a single list in the coming weeks.

Second, the bottom image includes PBO UV results as well as stock results, while the top image only has stock results.

For whatever reason, while the stock 7800x3D outperforms the 7950x3D in this test, an undervolted 7950x3D outperforms both an undervolted and stock 7800x3D.

Though, frankly, the difference is probably close to within the margin of error, so I wouldn’t concern myself with it. The punch line is that they perform nearly identically in both the old and new version of that particular test.
