The Ryzen 7 7800X3D for the modern AM5 platform successfully follows in the footsteps of its AM4 predecessor, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D. Thanks to the large 3D cache, it outperforms most high-end processors in terms of gaming performance and, with a few exceptions, is on a par with the 16-core Ryzen 9 7950X3D...

- excellent gaming performance
- Modern 5 nm manufacturing with 3D V-cache
- Very energy efficient
- future-proof
- PCI Express 5.0 support
- quite expensive
- Good for video games
- Acceptable onboard GPU
- Noticeable weaknesses in non-gaming applications
- Too expensive
The AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D is a powerful processor that is particularly well suited for video games. The CPU also has an acceptable onboard GPU, which makes it versatile. However, it shows noticeable weaknesses in non-gaming applications and the relatively high price of over 400 euros at the time of testing might deter potential buyers...

- Overall the fastest CPU in the test field
- extremely efficient
- high application performance
- Quite high temperature under full application load (approx. 85 degrees; does not apply to games)
It was to be expected that AMD would deliver a good performance with the Ryzen 7 7800X3D for just under 500 euros in the tested version. But seeing the concrete figures in black and white is still impressive. I am convinced that the Ryzen 7 7800X3D will occupy the throne as the best gaming CPU for a long time...
