AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D: eight cores and 3D V-Cache

An eight-core AM5 platform

The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is an eight-core, sixteen-thread desktop processor based on Zen 4. AMD combines it with 3D V-Cache technology and specifies 96 MB of L3 cache. That configuration may interest someone building a gaming system, but extra cache does not benefit every application equally. Compare the complete system and the work you intend to run before choosing solely by a clock speed number.

Confirm compatibility first

It requires an AM5-compatible motherboard and DDR5 memory. Check the supported CPU list and BIOS version for the exact motherboard; a shared socket does not replace that check. For an upgrade, also review cooling, power and case clearance. The linked offer covers the standard boxed processor, ASIN B0BTZB7F88, rather than a decorative Starfield edition or a different Ryzen X3D.

Clock speeds and cooling

AMD lists a 4.2 GHz base clock and a boost of up to 5.0 GHz. Boost is a conditional maximum and does not promise a sustained all-core frequency. Nominal TDP is 120 W, which is not a measurement of your system's power draw. The manufacturer lists no included cooler for this model. Budget for compatible cooling and follow its installation instructions.

Images and official video

The gallery contains a front photograph of the processor, a view in an open motherboard socket and two views of the box and tray. The pictured motherboard is not included in this offer.

AMD's video introduces the Ryzen 7000X3D series and includes the 7800X3D; its launch dates and prices are historical and are not used as today's offer.

Consider the complete purchase

We have not physically tested this processor or measured frame rates, temperatures or power consumption. Performance depends on graphics, memory, software, BIOS and cooling. Check the chosen condition, seller, availability, final price, shipping and returns on Amazon.com in the United States. Delivery to the Dominican Republic or a Prime discount for every buyer is not guaranteed. Without an authorised historical observation source, we do not calculate price minima, savings or trends.
