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 ?

Its an easy choice. The hard part is finding one for sale a at a fair price.

AMDs Ryzen 7 9800x3d would be the best for Rimworld. Rtzen 5 7600x3D is also good choice, a bit less powerful but significantly cheaper.

Money is no Matter.
My Budget for this Next Year is aroung 6.000 Euros.
So the only Question on Money Front is wether I am Nuts enough to get a 5090.
I am not gonna Skimp on the CPU.

I play on a laptop, Ryzen 5 2500U, i dont make giant colonies like youtubers do and im handling it just fine.

Threadripper is unfortunately a Pointless Choice for this.

Most Games at best Utilize 8 Cores.
Some Newer Ones are at about 16 Cores.
While Older Ones will often only use 2-4 Cores.
And many Indy Games like Rimword are even made only really using 1 Core for most Part.

Threadripper as its Performance comes from the Insane amount of Cores rather than the actual Processing Power of the Cores used. Actually will do worse for Games.
And for Games like Rimworld or Stellaris it is actually Horrible.
It will actually be Outperformed even by the 7800x3d.
So Hard Pass on that.

The whole topic is pointless having a 7950x. so I get you just want attention and waste lot of money for little reason, so there you have.

If You want to think that. Thats fine. But the Truth is Different.


In case You dont understand this.

The 9800x3d is Weaker than the 9950x in terms of Processing Power.
However. Thanks to a Gimmick with its Cache. It actually Vastly Outperforms most other CPUs for Games.

Now the Question for me is.
Will Rimworld Play better with the Gimmick of the 9800x3d or will it Play better with the Raw Processing Power of the 9950x


This is a Serious Question Mate.
You may think I want to Brag. But I really dont.
If I was so Rich that this wasnt a Relevant Decision for me. I would not Ask here.
I would just get a few Computers to Test it myself.
But alas I am not. 6000 Euro is the Biggest Budget I ever had available for a Gaming PC. Around Double what I got to Spend 2 Years ago and its more than 6 times what I could spend for the PC I got 6 Years ago.
So I am trying to get the Best I can for it.
