Unlike Intel, where every two years it is necessary to buy a new one motherboard In order to use the corresponding processor that it has just launched (the Intel Core Ultra Series 2000 and the LGA 1851 socket the last example), AMD offers much broader support for the sockets used by its processors and, for now, he continues without forgetting the oldest, the AM4since a few days ago it presented two new processors.
Last August, AMD presented the new range of AMD Ryzen 9000 Series processorsprocessors that are compatible with 600 series motherboards already available on the market. But, to get the most out of these processors, it is advisable to use the new range of motherboards with the chip X870 and X870E which arrived on the market at the end of September.
To improve the performance of processors AMD Ryzen 7000X3D and the new ones Ryzen 9000along with the next models that Lisa Su’s company will present on November 7, Gigabyte has just announced a new technology designed to improve performance of these processors in combination with boards with the X870E, X870 and 600 chip. We are talking about the X3D Turbo mode.
What is Gigabyte’s X3D Turbo mode
The new turbo mode that Gigabyte has just introduced for the X870E, of gaming offering a higher number of frames per second and lower latency.
According to the tests carried out by this manufacturer, with the X3D Turbo mode activated, an increase in performance of 18% is obtained in the range of processors Ryzen 9000 offering similar performance to X3D processors.
Gigabyte has also tested the new processors in the range 9000X3D that will be presented next week and according to it, with this mode activated, the 16-core Ryzen 9000 series has an improvement of 18%, while with the Ryzen 9800X3D With 8 cores, the improvement is 5%.
Although Gigabyte mentions that this function also allows increasing the performance of the Ryzen 7 7800X3Ddoes not show the improvement obtained by activating this mode, information that would allow us to know the performance improvement that the new Ryzen 7 9800X3D will offer compared to its predecessor.
In this way, the only thing we know is that the Ryzen 9800X3D without this mode offers 5% less performance than with the mode activated. That does not mean that it offers 5% more performance than the Ryzen 7800X3D, so, once again, to clear up doubts, we will have to wait for the reviews that will be published a day before its arrival on the market.
The higher up.
