This latest addition to AMD’s lineup of high-performance processors is designed to enhance the gaming experience, providing significant performance gains and opening new possibilities for overclocking enthusiasts.
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor introduces an innovative 64MB 3D V-Cache architecture that positions the cache below the core complex die (CCD), allowing the “Zen 5” cores to operate cooler and achieve higher clock rates. This shift delivers an average gaming performance boost of 8% over the previous generation and up to 20% faster speeds than competitors. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D also marks the first X3D processor to be fully unlocked, enabling users to overclock and customize their gaming setups for peak performance.
“The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is crafted to meet the demands of the gaming community and creative professionals,” said Jack Huynh, AMD’s SVP and GM of Computing and Graphics. “Our next-gen 3D V-Cache technology and Zen 5 architecture raise the bar in desktop computing, redefining what users can expect in gaming performance and overall computing power.”
With eight high-performance cores, 16 processing threads, and clock speeds reaching up to 5.2 GHz, the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor is engineered to handle demanding gaming and productivity tasks. Notably, in games like Star Wars Outlaws, users can experience a significant FPS boost, while in The Last Of Us: Part 1, the processor delivers a 31% improvement in 1% low frame rates compared to competing models, ensuring a smoother, stutter-free experience.
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D features a 4.7 GHz base clock speed, a total of 104MB of cache, and a TDP of 120W, with a retail price of $479 USD.
AMD has partnered with industry-leading game developers to optimize games for the Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor. Activision, Saber Interactive, and 11 bit Studios have praised the processor’s performance in titles such as Call of Duty, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, and Frostpunk 2, noting its capacity to support enhanced graphics, immersive environments, and high frame rates that elevate gameplay experiences.
The new AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is set to redefine gaming with unmatched power, efficiency, and customizability for gamers and enthusiasts seeking the ultimate desktop performance.
