Which CPU do You think is best for Rimworld ?

[Antearz]

We got new CPUs.
So which do You think Runs Rimworld best ?

Intels 14900K, KS, KF ?
AMDs Ryzen 9 9950x ?
AMDs Ryzen 7 9800x3d ?

Or maybe a different one alltogether ?

Intel, AMD has issues running 1.5 ever since it dropped.

on the other hand intel is known to have hardware issues in the newer gens.

im using amd and gotta say: i dont have any noticable problems.

I was using AMD with 1.4 update, I am completely unable to play 1.5 since its release, neither can a lot of other people since there are blogs about how to "fix" this issue.

Got AMD too. No issues.
Got a 7950x right now.

Considering to get a 9800x3d next.
Assuming till next Year nothing better hits.

do not buy an intel cpu, complete waste of money as of right now given the performance difference, power draw, and cost

[Verdeth]

without overclocking and solely based on rimworld performance, amd 9800x3d is the best choice of of those 5.

edit: no clue if there are hardware issues

All of those cpus will be more than powerful enough for Rimworld.

In theory, the cpu with the best single core performance will also have the best performance in Rimworld, which according to user benchmark is the intel one by a pretty small margin. Also other things can have an impact that can't be predicted without testing them on Rimworld side by side.

In the end, i would mostly look at which one will make for a cheaper system overall.

Userbenchmark is the very Definition of an unreliable narrator, trust literally Nothing that site says, matter of fact you should be taking the exact Opposite of what it says as the truth, there is dozens of documented cases of them having an intel bias to the point of spreading misinformation, the new AMD CPU vs intel CPU is an example of this.

(also, obviously price plays a part, but black friday is approaching and there might be deals on the 7800x3d/7950X3D for example, as i do believe AMD CPUs would have a Slightly easier time running rimworld)

I think You are Misunderstanding my Question Mate.
I am well aware of the Requirements for Rimworld.
And my current Computer is more than Capable of Running Rimworld xD

The Question is. Which will Run Rimworld Best.
Basicly which CPU will be better to Run Large Endgame Colonies with a Hundred Colonists.

I'd either get a 7800x3d when they drop for black friday (if they do) or a 9800X3D, those are gonna be your best bet i reckon

[Wasted]

AMDs Ryzen 7 9800x3d

or other amd

what cpu

[Antearz]

The Question is.
Will the 9800x3d actually work for Rimworld ?

The x3d CPUs rely on the Bigger Cache. Because of that they are quite good for Games in General.
But this is mostly for Normal Games.

Not for more Strategy and Simulation Focused Games like Stellaris or Rimworld where from the get go the CPU Processing Power is Importand.

Thats why I am Wondering wether it is Better to get the Ryzen 7 9800x3d or better a Ryzen 9 9950x. Or maybe even Wait for the next Large Intel CPU which tend to be Stronger on Single Thread Performance.


Its hard to tell beforehand wether the 9800x3d will Really Work its Magic for Rimworld.
It may have Massive Boosts in Games like Cyberpunk etc. Where alot of the Load is on the CPU being Bombarded with constantly changing Frames from the GPU but which are actually fairly light on Load in regards to actual Game Simulation Processing.
Because in Rimworld its Generally the other way around. The Game Simulation is the Big Part and the GPU is basicly idle and waiting for the CPU to provide it with Info on what to even do.

Gamers Nexus tests Stellaris, not Rimworld (sadly) but it's a computation heavy strategy game, too. The 9800x3d blows everything else out of the water there as well. There is currently no better processor for gaming.
