Coming in at just under $200 on sale, I finally got an X3D CPU after wanting one for a couple of years. It is my 6th AM4 CPU and probably my last, unless I decide to build an inexpensive AM4 server in the next couple of years.I looked up some benchmark results for the CPU from Gamers Nexus and learned that this CPU delivers around double the framerate of my first AM4 CPU, an R5 2600.The 5700X3D is one of the top ten gaming CPUs on the market and even beats a 14900K in some gaming scenarios. Often, in AAA titles, it is just a few FPS behind the 7800X3D.If you are still on AM4 with an older/lower spec CPU and, unless you have a GPU that performs well below an RX6600, upgrading to a 5700X3D is the best $200 you could spend on your gaming PC. This CPU will handle powerful GPUs (can handle a 4090) and help you get a few more years out of AM4.

I think mines maybe bad or something because im getting artifacts on YouTube videos that I was getting on my 4 core CPU.I had a 5600x and did not have this problem. Also Windows is very stubborn with their eco mode. I thought I got rid of my issues by changing some settings. But now it’s lagging like my 4 core CPU again.It doesn’t lag in games but just playing a YouTube video I scroll down it lags. It randomly lags randomly when starting a video. It’s just a bunch of lag issues in my browser that may be caused by eco mode in Windows itself.Gaming is phenomenal though.

I was looking at an inexpensive build for medium to medium heavy gaming and mostly spreadsheet, word processing that will last me the better part of the next 5 years. I am an IT and I normally just buy an old enterprise workstation or desktop and max out the memory and update HD space and put a decent video card in it to last me a few years (the last build like this lasted me 8 years). But I wanted something in the future I can just get a MB and processor replacement and use the same case and power supply so I decided to build instead.

I was debating moving to AM5 from AM4, with the launch of the 9700X. But, it turns out the 9700X has almost identical video gaming performance to this one. The reason is due to the massive L2 cache on this one. Sure, the 9700X does better in productivity (like video encoding) and other benchmarks, but those are not my use cases.AMD was very smart to release a more affordable version of the 5800X3D. This CPU is going to extend the life of my computer until AM6 most likely.Finally, get more RAM if you’re on 16 GB. They’re super cheap now, and more games are consuming above the 16 GB limit. It’s a good thing to buy just enough RAM you need, and more when you need later, as prices drop, so buying more prematurely only costs more money.

I have a 2700x, paired with a 3060ti. I am truly surprised that I have gotten a uplift in performance. The video game “the finals” I went from 106 frames on low at 2560x1440p to 118. The lows also have improved especially when a round ends on the 2700x I dropped below 60 not always but sometimes, with the 5700x3d I do not see that at all it runs without hiccups. I’m happy with it very much, but it does have a downside. It’s hotter than 2700x paired with noctua dh15. I can hear the fans ramping up even when I just serve the web under the 2700x that didn’t happen. It’s not bad but it is worth noting. I could go into actual temperature but one also has to remember ambient temperature. Just know it does run hot compared to the 2700x.

This thing is a beast. Instant increase in my gaming performance after upgrading from a 5600x. This is the best bang for your buck if you’re looking for an AM4 CPU that can crush in gaming.

This cpu can extend the life of your AM4 setup for another year or two at a good price and is also very efficient. You don’t need a fancy cpu cooler as the 5700x3d is efficient and cool. If you do need a cooler, you can’t beat the value of the phantom spirit 120 se or peerless assassin. The 5800x3d does perform another 10-20% better and is the best gaming performance on AM4, however it costs about $150 more. So for me, the 5700x3d is the sweet spot of value, efficiency and gaming performance.

This paired perfectly with my RTX 3060 ti, and has brought up my fps by a ton, really works well to speed up my pc overall, no issues with temps either. Had to update my BIOS but otherwise it was just plug n play

Wow, this thing is incredible. Slightly lower performance than a 5800X3D, but still keeps up with anything I throw at it. Given the performance of Ryzen 9000 not being anything to brag about, I am happy staying on AM4.

Don’t bother with the 5800x3d unless price is close. 5700 is right up there with it and i got it for half the price of the 58. Temps are amazing with my $60 Thermalright 360mm aio, undervolting the chip makes it 63c maxed out. Performance has been amazing in every game 👌

Wanted to upgrade my Ryzen 7 2700x without breaking the bank. Will upgrade again once AM6 comes out around 2026. Got this on a deal for prime day and can’t beat the performance upgrade. Computer flys on 1440p gaming at decent settings, and VR is much smoother now. Should last for years to come!

TL/DR: Processor good, computer go zoom.I built an am4 system a few years back, when graphics cards were hard to get, and cpu/motherboard prices were on the rise. I built on a bit of a budget, so I didn’t go crazy on the processor, and snagged a 3600. A reasonable amount of ram, decent graphics card, and the best motherboard I could get, so I wouldn’t be stuck without room to upgrade/expand later. Well, here we are, it’s later. I needed a bit of a bump to better enjoy the occasional game, and run some of my 3D modeling software a touch smoother. I didn’t want to commit to a full new build, but with the price of the 5800x3d vs some am5 platform options, I was a bit torn. That said, I didn’t have any need to go overboard, because my use case wouldn’t push a 5800x3d to its limits. Enter the 5700x3d, and at a price just over $200. The 5700x3d does great with everything I throw at it. It runs super stable, the temperature is well managed with most decent coolers, no issues with games, or any rendering software. This is a great way to get a nice performance bump across the board, and buy a few more years of use on your am4 platform. If you’re looking for an upgrade, this is a pretty solid one. Obviously, the price might be better or worse depending on when you’re reading this, so ymmv.HOWEVER. If you’re building a new computer, just go am5. Unless someone is giving you parts, or an amazing deal on something, it just doesn’t seem worth it outside of being a fantastic upgrade for current am4 owners. But I’m just a guy on the internet, giving my 2 cents.

I upgraded to this processor from the 3600x. I’ve noticed fps in WOW double. It doesn’t choke and drop to almost 0 fps when in a raid with lots of spell effects. This was the only component I have changed on my PC. It also seems to run cooler than my old cpu. This is a great upgrade to prolong the life of the AM4 platform.

Works amazingly compared to my previous 2600X (not hard to beat). Had to update my mobo BIOS for support before installation but that’s it. Haven’t found a single game I can’t run (with a 4070 OC) at max settings.Just do yourself a favor and make sure you do your research before you commit. This is a very powerful CPU. Stock AMD fans aren’t going to cut it, and it DOES NOT come with a cooler like other CPUs for this reason. I’d recommend some liquid cooling, this thing runs HOT. I’m just using a 240mm AOI cooler and I max out around 65C under heavy load. Granted I have a B450 board, it would probably run cooler on a B550 board with better VRMs.Also consider your power draw. This processor likes power. Running a 850w Corsair modular psu with no issues. You may actually want to undervolt just a bit for max performance/better temps. But that’s extremely dependent on all of your hardware.Overall 10/10 for me. Just know what you’re getting into before you commit.

Was planning on getting the 5800x3d but then I read that they will be releasing this, which is worth the money and a great upgrade from my old Ryan 5 5500, I get a huge boost in fps on games like valorant, fortnite, etc. and it gives a great boost on demanding games like squad, dcs, etc.

Best bang for the buck for the AM4 platform for gaming. Great upgrade from a Ryzen 3 to this processor. Works fantastic in nearly all the games I play and is a steal at the price. If you want more productivity focused of a processor go with a Ryzen 7 5800X instead but for gaming this is where it’s at.

I’ve got a near 8 year old system that was still running a Ryzen 1700 and GTX 1080, on an MSI B350m Mortar motherboard. The first gen Ryzen had some issue with utilizing 3200mhz ram, I think the official max supported was like 2677mhz, so my RAM was always underclocked. Naturally after so long I was getting the itch for an upgrade.I didn’t want to spend $1000 on an AM5 build just for my GPU to be bottlenecked and be forced to buy a $1200-2000 GPU, especially when my GTX 1080 is still surprisingly relevant by today’s standards.Fortunately my OLD MSI b350m motherboard put out a BIOS update for this processor which literally made it plug and play. Dropped in the new CPU and after taking a little while to boot up, everything ran like normal. After enabling XMP my RAM immediately went to the rated 3200mhz, no fuss, whereas my old Ryzen 1700 would make things very unstable after about 2733mhz.Depending on your motherboard there’s some special options in the BIOS you can modify to make the chip run a lot cooler. I am using a 240mm AIO water cooler but the temps were approaching 90C on prime95. I enabled some of the undervolting options and that was making temps top out around 75C while boosting!I haven’t had the opportunity yet to thoroughly test it in games yet, but the games I have played so far have been running noticeably better. That is of course on top of the obvious increase in speed in any other task compared to my Ryzen 1700. On top of all this I can consistently push it over 4GHz turbo on 1.15v whereas my 1700 was underclocked to 3.2GHz around 1.2v to be stable.My intentions with this processor was to utilize the new 3D Vcache technology to “future proof” my AM4 system for at least a few more years to give GPU technology more time to develop and hopefully have some breakthrough where GPUs are better and not so much more expensive nowadays. Beyond the fact the m.2 drives are overkill for most tasks and it’s still hard to find AM5 motherboards that have USB 4.0 slots.In conclusion, this upgrade resulted in my RAM being able to be run at expected speeds or better, a much faster processor and much better gaming performance with lower power draw. It has allowed me to squeeze the last bit of life out of my AM4 board and give it a facelift, for the price of about $300 all in for the CPU, liquid cooler and paste.In other words I saved about $1000-3000 in not having to upgrade to the AM5 platform that is still in it’s infancy, and get to stay on the time tested AM4 platform while the newer platforms work out the kinks and there’s better GPU options as well as USB 4 standards etc.If you’re on the fence about making the purchase, go for it. I bought this when the price dropped to $229 and at the time that was a $80ish discount from the 5800x3d for a processor that uses a lot less power for maybe a 5% difference in performance. If you care more about your power bill and heat being generated by your computer than a 5% increase in performance, and you’re staying on the AM4 platform, MAKE THE PURCHASE!

Same exact architecture and 3d cache size as the 5800x3d but with a .5mHz lower boost clock speed. You get about 9% less performance than the 5800x3d but for 70 dollars less.I went from about 75fps in Tarkov with a 3600x and 3060ti, to about 155fps just switching to the 5700x3d.The difference in FPS really depends on what games you play, but for Tarkov it’s a must buy especially if you don’t want to upgrade your who setup to DDR5.

My 5700X3D greatly improved performance across the board from my previous 3600, and nears 5800X3D performance at a significant reduction in price. I was also able to undervolt it to reduce operating temp, and the chip has been perfectly stable. Very happy with this chip bringing new life to my older AM4 system!

The 5700X3D is a monster! I upgraded from a 3600x which is already a good processor but the difference in performance between these two CPU’s is staggering. Currently my 3060Ti (also a good GPU) is bottle-necking my X3D so it appears to be “asleep” during gaming 😉 What I mean by that is the CPU utilization is in the single digits all the time whilst GPU is, you guessed it, 100% 🙂 That’s not just at 4K but at 1440p as well (Ray tracing on or off in very demanding AAA titles). In Premiere Pro productivity it also rips through encoding. This is the height of AM4 CPU performance for gaming in particular but even as an all rounder as seen in productivity workloads like Premiere Pro. Bear in mind that the 5700X3D is a slightly under-clocked 5800X3D so the price difference really increases it’s value (price/performance ratio). If you game on your PC then this is the processor you want 😉

I have been having an issue where my 3700X was being a bottleneck even back when I had a 1070ti. I had upgraded to a 3070 (had some issues with that GPU), then swapped to the slightly better 6800XT. Of course going from a 1070ti where the cpu was still a bottleneck in some cases (GTA V as an easy example), to a 6800XT where almost everything is bottlednecked by the CPU, then I needed an upgrade. This CPU works great and kept me from having to wait for a good deal on a 5800X3D. My CPU cooler was more than enough for it and the CPU is easly undervolted without losing performance to keep it running cooler. Great buy.

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 went from 3700x to this about a week ago, and have been impressed with the performance. Incredible upgrade for the price, especially in games that are hard on the CPU. My only recommendation is that you get a quality cooler for it because it can get hot.

For starters, this cpu has no heatsync in the package, so you WILL need a good cooler that can handle 105w TDP loads.(not that it constantly uses 105w) if you upgrading from the 2000 or 3000 series processors, you will LOVE THIS… The 100mb of cache really helps in games, just like the 5600x3d and 5800x3d, this is a cheaper option of the 5600x3d, or if you can’t get a cheap used 5600x3d.(since the 5600x3d is a microcenter exclusive) based on my benchmark tests with timespy, it got as high as 71c with the cpu test, and a thermalright phantom spirit 120 ARGB to cool it. Great for gaming and multitasking. And for the price, it costs slightly more than what the ryzen 5 3600 costed new at launch, but performs BETTER in every way. If you are still on AM4 and don’t want to buy a new AM5 board, ram, and cpu, Buy this!
