I will swap the 7700X for the 9800X3D when it drops. Pretty much why I went ahead and built earlier this year.

I built AM5 for this reason. Will wait for benchmarks but I plan to jump on the 9800X3D as well.

No new GPU's until 2025.

'Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 series has also been delayed to early 2025'

Earlier this week, we reported that AMD and Intel have delayed their next generations of graphics cards. In the meantime, Tweakers has been able to confirm to multiple sources at the Computex fair that Nvidia's RTX 50 series has also been delayed.

I thought about posting this earlier today, but it's a pretty big clusterfrick of rumor at this point. I would be somewhat surprised to see Nvidia pass up what would be a competition-free holiday season, but stranger things have happened.

Anyway, this is the full run down on Videocardz.com.

There would still be competition… just with themselves and their previous gen

Yes and no, the other side of that coin is if they need more time they can take it as they have no competition.

If they need it, of course. If it’s just to see more 40 series, I don’t think that would make much sense.

Then again, with the rise of AI Nvidia is caring less and less about consumer GPUs, so we could be entering a new normal entirely.

I am starting to see this as well.

As always, it comes down to whether your hardware is doing what you currently need it to do. The only game I'm actively putting off until my next hardware upgrade is a replay of CP2077 with PL. Other than that, my 3080 is still chewing up pretty much anything I throw at it, so it's not causing me any discomfort to wait. But at which point an upgrade will give you meaningful uplift, pull the trigger. Waiting for the next big thing is a never ending trap.

Have you done the FSR mod yet?

I’ve not. I’m not currently on the frame gen bandwagon in its current iteration, and I vastly prefer DLSS to FSR without frame gen.

I would be curious to hear reviews from anyone who has, though.

Our source on the Computex show floor tells us AMD plans to launch 9000X3D processors in September. This matches the staggered release of X870E motherboards that we anticipate will arrive the same month. There’s no hard indication of which CPUs will arrive first, but an educated guess from historical releases suggests it’ll likely start with Ryzen 9 9950X3D and possibly Ryzen 9 9900X3D.

If these 9000s handle the 3D Vcache better than the 7900X3D, I'm getting one for my AM5 MB. However, the X870E MB sounds nice too.

Certainly possible, though it would mildly surprise me to see them that early, unless Intel is pushing to release earlier than previously reported. If AMD can drop x3D to compete with Intel’s release, I think they will. But rumors are that AMD is looking to tweak the x3D line a bit, so I’m curious to see if they will be finished cooking by September. I would certainly appreciate it, though

It wouldn’t surprise me to see them add the vcache to both chips this time around, being the 7900x3D got trashed so badly. I just don’t see how they overcome the chip logic issue, being so much of it is out of their control.

Doing a rebuild of my HTPC inside this case.

Was easier than I expected it to be. The riser cable I had on hand was too short, so I'm waiting for the new one to come in before it can be finished up. It is a smol boi

Have any of yall had luck selling a used tower before? What should I ask for this? All it needs is a GPU

So instead of selling this, I ended up buying a used 3070Ti for $300, slapping it in, and giving the whole thing to my 12y/o cousin. He's been playing WZ with us on his PS5 and is a stud, so I figured he'd do even better with a hardware upgrade. Seeing his face as it fired up last night was a great feeling

Those are nifty little cases.

I’m currently in the process of trying to talk myself out of picking up the new O11 Vision Compact when I go to build in 6 months or so. I keep telling myself that my O11 XL is still lovely, but I keep not listening to myself
