Race to the bottom
ooo the temperature is Ryzen again :D
Mwave seem to have cheap prices on a few high end products recently. I gather there's some sensitivity about their financial position so a little research seems worthwhile before diving straight into dealing with them.
this is from AI Google:
Acquisition: The DigiDirect Group purchased Mwave in June 2025 after Mwave's parent company, Esel, entered voluntary administration.
Business Continuity: Mwave will continue to trade and serve customers.
Customer Support: Mwave's customer support remains available through its website, live chat, help center, phone at 02 8257 3699, and email at [email protected].
Location: Operations will continue from the current Lidcombe headquarters temporarily before moving to the DigiDirect headquarters in South Strathfield, Sydney.
Existing Orders and Policies: Gift cards, store credits, unfulfilled orders, warranties, and the 30-day change-of-mind policy will all be honored.I don't trust a word Google AI spits at me.
Me: with a 7700 Holding for AM6 12core X3D.
Ozbargin: have i got a great deal for you.https://www.mwave.com.au/product/amd-ryzen-9-9900x3d-12-core-24-threads-up-to-55ghz-am5-unlocked-cpu-processor-ac82845\
this is even cheaper if you only want 12 cores, assuming code works as well.
I think he meant on all 12 cores; rumour’s that AMD’s new AM6 will have 12 cores on single CCD which’s what I’m waiting on too.
ah ok, wasnt aware
This
7700 is more than capable. Definitely a HODL.
is Mwave safe yet?
Going by other threads people have been receiving their goods so I would say so until we hear otherwise.
I thought they were reliable supplier. Any recent issues?
went into administration and had to be sold, i think to digidirect
Anything is safe if you pay with credit card.
9800x3d is better if you're purely a gamer.
Sure, but this benches on passmark at pretty much twice the performance
Not saying this chip wouldn't perform better but passmark is known to be unreliable
What does this mean? What is the real world performance gain in games?
It seems 9800x3d is better for gaming yes?
Better value I believe. Gaming performance is more or less tied with the 9950X3D, but it costs about $300 less.
all X3D chips perform same within margin of error for gaming (same generation chips ofc) the difference is for creative workloads
jack of two trades, master of none. 9950x still benches slightly better for multitask/productivity.
Motherboard suggestion?
An AM5 one.
Something with wifi 7 as you're probably going to sit on this board with this CPU combo for a while and the NBN in Australia is seriously fast now and getting faster. You'll want to be able to make the most of that in a couple of years from now.
My order isn't processing through Paypal, though money was already taken out of my bank account so not sure what's happening. But an absolute steal if it goes through
How does the performance compare to the 9800X3D?
Just 30 minutes after this dude proclaims too
