AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D 8-Core, 16-Thread Desktop Processor

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D is an excellent desktop processor that delivers strong performance, especially for gaming. With 8 cores and 16 threads, it handles multitasking, streaming, and productivity tasks smoothly. The 3D V-Cache technology provides noticeable improvements in game performance, offering higher and more stable frame rates. It runs efficiently with reasonable temperatures when paired with a good cooler and is a great upgrade for AM4 systems. Overall, this CPU offers impressive performance and value for gamers and power users alike.

Back in January 2020, I built a gaming PC with a Ryzen 2700X. The CPU served me well, but I did not win the silicon lottery (so ram would not run stable above 2933 MHz) and there was definitely stuttering - especially in the first 5-10 seconds after loading into a new map in a game. Fast forward to April 2024, and I just upgraded the CPU/Cooler, and Case (it was cheaper to get a new case then to replace all of the noisy fans in the old case). The first thing I noticed was how much cooler and efficient the 5700X3D runs compared to the 2700X it replaced. I was routinely seeing 58-63C temps (with spikes to 70+C) with the 2700X, and now I am running 40-45C (even sometimes as low as in the high 30C range, and occasionally 46-47C). Second thing is the complete absence of stuttering. I never realized how back the stuttering was, I knew it wasn't good, but holy moley - it is soooooo smooth. Also, this CPU seems to sip power, unlike the 2700X, which loved to drink down power. Third, I am now running ram at an ultra stable 3200 MHz. This computer also is nearly dead silent - other than some minor coil whine from the PSU. I have seen significantly more stable frame rates (running a game at 120 fps now stays super close to 120 fps vs frequent dips to 60-80 fps. Microstuttering is now almost zero all the time, vs double digits percents all the time, and did I say super silky smooth gaming? Yes, I could have gotten the 5800X3D, but for me, this thing seems to be underutilized now, vs my always stressed out 2700X that was sweating out much higher temps with a nasty stutter at times. I might have built this a bit too quiet or it could be how cool this CPU runs, since instead of deafening fans, I can only barely hear some very muted electrical hisses and whines at times from the UPS severely manhandled PSU, even when gaming hard. The case is a DeepCool CH360 Digital and the cooler is an Arctic Freezer 36 A-RGB.

I've been using this CPU for around a year and what an upgrade it was from a ryzen 5 3600. Right after going from a 5600xt to a 9700xt, I was getting heavily bottlenecked by the CPU, and both this and the 5800x3d are the best options for gaming if you're still on AM4 and don't wan't/see the need of upgrading to AM5. I can game amazingly in my 34'' 1440p ultrawide monitor, where now my system can run the GPU to its fullest potential, where the biggest gains of course went with CPU demanding games like BeamNg Drive and Teardown, but I also saw a lot of improvement in other more graphically demanding games like Cyberpunk and RDR2. If you're getting CPU bottlenecked and don't want to practically buy a whole new system for AM5, this is your best option. I recommend it for anyone with a ryzen 5 5600 or bellow, even more so for people that are still on ryzen 3000 series CPUs or bellow and have B450 or X470 mobos.

I installed the Ryzen 7 5700X as an upgrade for my AM4 system, and it works flawlessly. The CPU arrived well-packaged, installation was quick, and it booted up with no issues. Performance is fantastic — fast, cool, and stable. In games and multitasking, it’s a noticeable step up from my previous CPU. Paired with my RTX 3060 Ti, everything runs super smooth. Temps are great too, even under load. If you’re still on AM4 and want a solid upgrade without switching platforms, this chip is 100% worth it. Highly recommended!

Quick point upfront... I was refreshing the 5700x3d page as it was seemingly selling out, then getting restocked. The non-Amazon sellers seem to be selling used ones, and at higher prices than Amazon charges for brand new. Be sure to keep an eye out for when Amazon themselves are selling it, as I personally wasn't going to take the chance with a used one from resellers. Due to being so late in the game on the 5800x3d, it's almost impossible to find without paying an arm and leg for it. I couldn't bring myself to pay the same or equal price of an 7800/9800x3d simply due to them not being made and thusly having super low stock or sketchy resale from China. If I was going to spend that money I might as well just total upgrade to AM5. I was slightly worried that the vcache increase wasn't going to be as huge factor as it was seemingly made out to be for the game(s) I was playing. People were right though, the vcache is amazing for gaming. My FPS increased and stopped stuttering even with a large amount of badly core-spread addons on top of the game to the point I had to get used to playing it with that much FPS, it felt weird due to how smooth it was. If your primary goal is to run games at higher settings it absolutely was worth the "downgrade" for me. I have been converted, I don't think I'll switch back from non-x3d CPUs until something comes along to replace it. tl;dr Absolutely worth every single penny.

Um processador incrível, entrega muito e além de ser AM4+ (O melhor da categoria) que tem potencial ai para rodar jogos tranquilo lançamentos de jogos de 2035 de boa.... sim um CPU que vai te entregar super de boa 10 anos de lançamentos sem precisar pensar trocar processador tendo uma boa placa mãe e uma GPU é processador de alta performance até 2040 que já deve ter processadores AM5+ que estão com um preço acessível ou já migra para a tecnologia da época de 2040 se for o que? AM6+? AM7+ ou AM8+?

Upgraded to this from a 5600X and I love it, slight performance increase but a noticeable difference. But If you are looking to upgrade though I would recommend attempting to find a 5800X3D instead, they are hard to come by nowadays but if you don’t plan on upgrading to AM5 anytime soon it would be worth hunt and the extra cost for the performance that CPU gives.

Deffinitely a last upgrade option for AM4 besides the 5800x3d but well worth the price. If you want to squeeze out the last drop of performance from an AM4 build this chip is one of the best options. It drives my 4080 Super pretty well at 1440P in any game. No complaints.

Big upgrade over 5600x for CPU-heavy games. Price was very competitive over the now extremely rare 5800x3d
