The comparisons with the Ryzen 7 2700X and the 3800X were done by me on a MSI X470* Gaming Pro Carbon. All CPUs had only PBO enabled, the GPUs were running on factory settings. On the X470 (2x 8 GB single ranked) 3200 MHz CL 16-18-18-38 was used.
The Ryzen 7 5800X in a generation comparison
In both single and multi-core, AMD has managed to improve significantly over the last few years. The current Ryzen 7 5800X comes with its brute single-core performance on par with comparable Intel CPUs, especially in gaming, and it is significantly faster in some games. If we still consider the efficiency (power consumption to the achieved performance), then Intel is currently eclipsed. The G.Skill ram used on the MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk with its 3600 MHz and CL 16 gives the Ryzen 7 5800X a slight advantage in this comparison!
Three generations of CPUs and GPUs in a synthetic benchmark comparison
AMD’s performance increase in the last 3 years is impressive in my opinion, considering where AMD was before Ryzen and how AMD managed to catch up to Nvidia with RDNA2 (compare also Igor’s reviews: RTX 3000 vs RX 6000).
The stress test for the be quiet! based system
I think the temperatures and the volume speak for themselves. Subjective perception: almost inaudible for me under everyday circumstances!
In the stress test as well as when gaming in WQHD or 4K, the PowerColor RX 6800 Red Dragon ran with a power limit +10% as well as a slight overclock to 2.4 GHz. The card never got warmer than 69 °C and the fans rotated a maximum of 1180 rpm (auto. Settings). Thus, the PC never got louder than 38 dB during gaming. The connoisseur can already hear that there is a PC running. When you shut yourself off from all the other noises that you hear in everyday life. When the PC is really stressed, you can clearly hear the fans.
But that happens rather rarely with my brother that the PC will exceed the 40 dB volume barrier! The so-called coil whine is only audible when you get above the 144 FPS mark. So if you only have a 144 Hz monitor or smaller, you should limit the FPS in the respective game if possible. If you don’t mind the coil whine, e.g. because you are wearing a headset, you can also use your 60 Hz monitor with everything the system is capable of!
