Rules
-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
-
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
-
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
-
Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

I think a tuned 14700k with the e-cores disabled so you can clock the ring bus way higher, as well as tuned memory at 7200-7800 with tightened timings, might beat the 7800x3D even when you tune that. I'm just speculating, but I'd like to see YouTuber try with a dozen different games. I heard disabling e-cores often does nothing, but I think the ring clock OC might compensate for a lot, from what I've seen so far.
But that's a lot of work for something that still will use a lot more power.
