Ryzen X3D Face-Off: Nine AMD CPUs Benchmarked Across 14 Games

TechSpot benchmarks nine Ryzen 5/7 X3D CPUs (5800X3D through 9800X3D) across 14 games at 1080p to compare Zen 3 and Zen 4 X3D variants on AM4/AM5. Results show large, game‑dependent gaps driven by IPC, clock speed, and memory bandwidth, with DDR5 offering limited gains for cache-heavy X3D parts. On average the 7500X3D is about 8–9% faster than the 5800X3D, the 7800X3D about 20–24% faster, and the 9800X3D roughly 30–37% faster than the 5800X3D, while the 7600X3D is now discontinued. The study highlights that the 7800X3D is the most significant gaming upgrade since the 5800X3D, and not all X3D upgrades are created equal.

AMD's EPYC Genoa-X CPUs with massive cache and AI capabilities now available for data centers.

AMD has announced the availability of its Genoa-X EPYC processors, which feature up to 1.1GB of L3 cache. The processors use cache die stacking to add further L3 cache to otherwise regular Genoa Zen 4 CCDs, giving AMD a novel way to produce a high-cache chip design without having to actually lay out and fab a complete separate die. These high-cache SKUs are aimed at a niche market segment of workloads that benefit specifically from the additional cache, which AMD terms their “technical computing” market.
