AMD Announces Ryzen 7 7800X3D, Ryzen 9 7900X3D and 7950X3D: Up to 30% Faster than 5800X3D, Coming in Feb 23

At CES 2023, AMD announced the three new Ryzen X3D processors: Ryzen 9 7950X3D, Ryzen 9 7900X3D, and Ryzen 7 7800X3D. Featuring the second-generation V-Cache technology, the chipmaker promises a performance boost of up to 30% over the preceding lineup. The cache size is the same as last-gen, but the boost clocks have been raised to 5.7GHz. A total of three SKUs are planned, namely the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, Ryzen 9 7900X3D, and the 7950X3D (based on the 7700X, 7900X, and 7950X).

Model Cores/Threads Boost / Base Frequency Total Cache TDP
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 16C/32T Up to 5.7 GHz / 4.2 GHz 144MB 120W
AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D 12C/24T Up to 5.6 GHz / 4.4 GHz 140MB 120W
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 8C/16T Up to 5.0 GHz / TBD 104MB 120W

All three X3D chips come with a base TDP of 120W with locked multipliers, limiting overclocking. Official decks claim a gaming performance boost of 20-30% over the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, with Dota 2 delivering a 30% gain at 1080p “High Quality” settings. (aricampanimalhospital.com)

AMD also introduced non-X parts, including the Ryzen 9 7900, Ryzen 7 7700, and Ryzen 5 7600. Built on the same dies as their X counterparts, they drop the TDP to 65W and come with a bundled Wraith cooler. Precision Boost Overdrive promises to boost clocks and performance by up to 39% in water-cooled scenarios. The processors announced today are expected to be available starting January 10.

Model Cores/Threads Boost/Base Frequency Total Cache TDP Cooler SEP (USD)
AMD Ryzen 9 7900 12C/24T Up to 5.4 GHz / 3.7 GHz 76MB 65W Wraith Prism $429
AMD Ryzen 7 7700 8C/16T Up to 5.3 GHz / 3.8 GHz 40MB 65W Wraith Prism $329
AMD Ryzen 5 7600 6C/12T Up to 5.1 GHz / 3.8 GHz 38MB 65W Wraith Stealth $229
