AMD has finally managed to fix the high power draw issue which affected its Radeon RX 7900 XTX and 7900 XT GPUs on multi-monitor or 4k144 FreeSync monitors. VR gaming issues have also been fixed.
Although AMD's all-new Ryzen 9 7950X3D could not be an i9-13900K killer in terms of gaming performance, the new 3D V-cache part completely annihilates the Intel i9 in terms of efficiency.
AMD has released its latest Windows driver, version 22.12.2, for its RX 7900 series GPUs today. It resolves one of the several high-power draw bugs that are affecting the cards at the moment.
AMD has reiterated that it's Radeon RX 6000 GPUs offer much more efficiency and value than Nvidia's GeForce RTX 3000. The company has also shared some details regarding the next-gen RX 7000 (RDNA 3).

Intel is allegedly upping the power draw of the upcoming Raptor Lake-S flagship, the i9-13900K. The company is apparently bumping up the power headroom to 350W for a new "extreme performance" mode.
Nvidia's upcoming RTX 4000 Ada Lovelace GPUs are expected to bump up the power requirements of next-gen cards. Following that, AMD too is allegedly doing the same thing for its RX 7000 RDNA 3 GPUs.
An early Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake review has been posted. While the review shows quite good multi-threaded performance gains, the chip also appears to gobble down a lot of power in doing so.
