The latest X3D CPUs exhibit reduced aggressive boosting capabilities for several reasons. This leads to lower power consumption and decreased heat production.
They finished close together, just a few points apart. Thanks to the 3D V-cache feature.
The 7950x doesn't require extremely high power to function well. You won't find significant gains between 150W and 250W. The 7950x3D has a TDP cap from the 3D v-cache module to safeguard the CPU, usually running at around -500MHz boost compared to non-3D v-cache chips. However, it can be noticeably more capable in scenarios where the extra 64MB of L3 cache makes a difference. In Cinebench R23, the 7950x scores around 38k while the 7950x3D comes in at about 36k.
