In line with slides from an MSI presentation printed by HardwareLuxx at present (through VideoCardz), the brand new chips could have respectable multicore efficiency gen-over-gen, with an eight-core 9000X3D outperforming a Ryzen 7 7900X3D by as much as 28 p.c in Cinebench R23. However they’ll provide as little as 2 p.c positive factors in Black Fantasy: Wukong and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, in accordance with MSI’s preliminary testing.
And in opposition to the vanilla Ryzen 9000 sequence, MSI discovered that X3D efficiency was so shut as to virtually be the identical. MSI does observe that “Efficiency is anticipated to be higher on PR samples and retail chips,” although.
It’s not clear whether or not HardwareLuxx broke an embargo or whether or not MSI may be answerable for the leak — unusually, it seems that part of the presentation was largely about Intel’s new Core Extremely 200S chips, and it’s not clear why unreleased AMD chips can be a part of that part. The presentation reveals that MSI’s dialogue of Intel chips was embargoed to October tenth.
