AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D Review: Fastest Gaming CPU?



The AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, which gamers have been eagerly anticipating for almost a year, is here. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is an 8-core processor design that uses a single CCD and features a 3DV Cache capability for Zen 4, providing an additional 64 MB of L3 cache, which greatly improves the performance of certain workloads. While the processor falls behind in application performance compared to Intel’s offerings, it outperforms them in gaming. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 5.6% faster than the i9-13900K and 5.8% faster than the Ryzen 9 7950X3D in our test suite at 1080p.

  2. I guess if you play at 4k dlss set to quality the performance delta would be 15% delta gain for the 7800-x3d vs 7700x by using the 1440p relative performance chart. if you play at 4k native and already own the 7700x then it makes no sense to upgrade to the 7800X3D.

  3. Wait, TechPowerUp has a YT channel?! TechPowerUp does YT reviews?! Why aren't these videos included in the written reviews? I'm just finding this out now after YEARS of reading TPU and YEARS of watching YT reviews.
