Unexpected 9850X3D superpower: https://www.club386.com/amd-ryzen-7-9850x3d-review/
Might just be the trick that saves this CPU on ASUS and ASROCK mobos.
Not wanting to walk away entirely disappointed, I tried out the Ryzen 7 9850X3D’s ‘Eco Mode’ at 65W. To my surprise, the processor doesn’t lose a massive amount of its performance in this mode. Single-core performance remains resolute at 142pts, while multi-core only drops by 7% despite the 46% reduction in available power.
