  • Thinking about upgrading your CPU for 4K gaming? This video dives into the surprising performance difference between the powerful Intel Core i9 14900K and the value-oriented i5 14400 at 4K resolution using the RTX 4090 graphics card. I benchmark both CPUs to see if the extra cores of the i9 14900K justify the cost for gamers.

    Thats why i jump from LGA1700 and intel i7 13700KF to AM5 with Ryzen 9 7900X3D. In some games with intel freeze PC, or restart PC, because issue with e-core. Now on Ryzen 9 7900X3D i outperform in games core i9 14900k and my cpu needs for that 50-80W not 100-160+W like intel. And also zero issues with AMD this is my first Ryzen and is awesome.

    @SnubBarracuda Před měsícem +2

    They are saying that motherboards aren't regulating power well in order to get max performance and it's ruining and degrading these CPUs very quickly. Then they start to crash etc. People think that the new bios that are setting the PLs even lower than 250 are doing so to stop ruined chips from crashing. Luckily, I set my 14700k PLs to 253 after only about 2 weeks of usage. I hope it's okay. I noticed your cpu was only using 100-120 watts when you were standing in that gate area in Horizon with only 83 fps. Kind of strange. At first, I thought maybe your PSU wasn't keeping up but you were only pulling 400-450 watts.

    • @theivadim
      @theivadim  Před měsícem +1

      I predict there will be a lot of finger-pointing as this issue gets more coverage in the news and social media. These things happen to every company tho. If I remember correctly, one of AMD's Ryzen 7000 CPUs was burning motherboard sockets. I think it was 7800X3D. But then they fixed it with a BIOS update. I just hope that Intel will solve this promply as AMD did and replace any failed CPUs for their customers.

    • @PabloB888
      @PabloB888 Před měsícem

      Some people say they have been using Intel limits from the start and still get crashes. There have also been reports of rapid degradation after a few months, as their CPUs require more and more power to maintain the same frequency. I think this problem is much more complicated than Intel is willing to admit (design flaw).

      @mohammedaljezawi8428 Yes, although compared to the i7 CPU's I have seen far fewer comments from 14600K owners reporting these crashes, and setting Intel limits has helped them all, at least for now (i7 processors can degrade even on default settings, but maybe i5 will be less affected, who knows).

      ​@theivadim I skipped the 40 series because I do not trust the connector issues with the 4090, I am waiting for the 50 series and I'll be looking at those around January since they say the 5090's will come out first and we will have them by the end of 2024, The 5099, will be about 15 % more powerful then the 4090, and offer a better connector given that Nvidia will not want a repeat of the 4090's melting connectors... .
      Edit: but to answer your question DLSS, I don't know how it works on a 4090 I am only saying DLSS will become more normal and things like Frame Generation as well the more A.I. becomes the norm, I can see the 5090 giving us even better DLSS and Flame Generation... DLSS 3 is better then DLSS 2 etc, DLSS 4 is probably going to be released with the 50 series giving it a better performance than before.

      You have the 3090 if I remember correctly. Just realised that it doesn't support frame gen. Came back to edit my message but you beat me to it with your reply🙂 How about DLSS tho? Do you use it on a regular basis?
      Also, it looks like this new connector is here to stay. So, RTX 50-series could suffer from the same issue unless NVIDIA lowers the 5090 power consumption.

      Motherboards set the highest CPU power limit by default. I've heard that some 14900Ks can't handle that and become unstable. Similar to what you're describing. Try reducing the power limit in BIOS down to the Intel baseline. I think it is PL1 253W if I remember it correctly. That may help stabilise your PC. RMA is also an option if you continue experiencing problems. Or just sell and get an i5 or i7 instead. But beware that even with those you still have to alter the power limit in BIOS because I found that my i7 14700KF works better with a medium power limit preset instead of the highest that is set by default (out of the box). The FPS is more consistent since I've reduced the power limit on my i7. Doesn't fluctuate that much resulting in smoother gameplay.
      I just realised while writing this message that no matter what you still will have to deal with some kind of issues if you stay on Intel😅 Sad time for Intel. Ryzen 7000 appears to be the more stable platform now. Even tho it had some initial teething problems as well. They're all ironed out from what I hear. II haven't had a Ryzen PC for a while. But I'm looking forward to trying one in the future. If an opportunity arises.

    The biggest difference is cpu usage....i5 was using 56% of its usage....and the i9 cpu usage is 26%....that's the difference. Usage is disturbed between more cores so the work load is less on the i9 vs i5.
