Can someone help me better understand this? Okay, the CPU can move more things to the cache die when building the frames, less memory fetch, but it seems the performance difference is too big (according to the reviews) for +32MB L3 when comparing those two CPUs.
64MB of L3 on 9950X is still A LOT of cache.
Hoping to replace my i9-9900K this generation, but the Intel Core 9 Ultra 285K was incredibly disappointing, and the Ryzen 9 9950 wasn't that great, either.
Only 8 cores seems a bit of a let down, when the 9950 has 16, but apparently it parks half the cores during high load which seems to defeat the purpose of having so many cores, so maybe it's not a big deal.
