HD Game tests
Using a potent GPU at low resolutions, I ensure there is no bottleneck in this section to easily check the CPU performance differences—all games run at HD resolution and the highest possible setting, without RTX.
The 7800X3D proved to be faster than the 7950X3D and the 13900K in all games! This is the ultimate gaming CPU, period!

best review from Hardwear Busters master Aris
I do know that gaming in 4k is mostly GPU bound. Nevertheless would you mind doing the same tests for games in 4k?
I believe there is no point in losing more time in every CPU review for 4K testing, even QHD, since the GPU sets the limits in these resolutions and not the CPU. Wish I had more time for every review, but I don’t.
Looking at the 2nd page – so it’s just a (low level) ppm driver lingering in the system that was likely ignored by amd installer after (other) reviewers switched the cpu ? techpowerup reviewer claims he had to reinstall windows.
If device manager/sc.exe or registry and/or powercfg.exe (or any combination of those) was all that it took to clean that up, that’s pretty funny.
