I'm a bit disappointed with the gaming performance of the 9700X compared to the 7700X. I was hoping at least a 10% improvement in performance at stock settings, but the uplift I was hoping for was close when compared to the non-X 7700 (same 65w tdp). With PBO and other tuning, the 9700X shows decent improvement, but the extra power doesn't seem to enhance the gaming performance. Could it be that AMD opted for a low TDP because gaming performance doesn't differ much even with the same power consumption?

Clearly Zen5 cores are focused on server performance and power savings. I'm impressed but gamers who love desktop heaters won't be happy.
