The Ryzen 7 5800X3D was released in early April 2022. It's rated for a 105W TDP, and draws up to about 190-195W depending on workload[0].

In 1080p gaming (useful for exaggerating the CPU bottleneck), the 13900K outperforms the 5800X3D by about 11%[1].

Review units of "next generation of Ryzen processors" have been out since late September when they became available to buy, so you can read reviews and find out their actual power usage[2]. The Ryzen 9 7950X is shown to push system power consumption up to 355W while running Blender.

(TechSpot reviews linked simply because they include power consumption in their reviews.)

if youre buying a 13900 for 1080p gaming youre throwing away money anyways. ltt includes the 5800x3d in their numbers for comparisons at resolutions people buying super high end cpus actully want to drive.

At idle, where the cpu spends most of it's time, the Intel chips are winning significantly.

Well, by 3W for an entire system. Which isn't worth worrying about in my opinion.

So personally, I'd be looking at other specs to help me decide between them.
