I don't know why this name is so funny to me. It just seems so much more ridiculous than an evenly named Ryzen 9 79500X3D. Like what, were getting 45 more units worth of a Ryzen 9 7900X3D, but not quite enough units for a Ryzen 9 7982X3D?
It's because the 7900 and 7950 are using an "old" naming scheme and the 7945 is using a new naming scheme.
One of the side effects of this is that bigger number no longer necessarily means better, especially if you're comparing between architectures
Thanks for the explanation! That makes a lot more sense than what I assumed was an arbitrary number assignment.
