The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 3D V-Cache CPU shows a significant increase in performance compared to previous models in new benchmark tests. In terms of performance, it comes close to the 9950X and the i7-14700K and outperforms the Ryzen 7 7800X3D by up to 25%. The CPU is expected to be available in less than two weeks and initial test results indicate a balanced level of performance in both single and multi-core applications.
The processor performance of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D was tested in various programs, including Geekbench 6.3, using a ROG Crosshair X870E Hero motherboard with Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) enabled. The CPU achieved a boost clock of up to 5.27 GHz and scored 3339 points in the single-core test and 18658 points in the multi-core test. Compared to the results of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, which are usually between 2600 and 2800 points in the single-core test and 15000 and 16000 points in the multi-core test, this represents a significant increase. A positive trend was already evident in earlier tests: two days earlier, the CPU was rated with 3305 points in the single-core test and 18221 points in the multi-core test, which underlines the consistency of the performance increases.
The differences in the test results can be explained, among other things, by the fluctuations in the boost clock rates, which are influenced by the PBO feature. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D has a base clock of 4.7 GHz and a maximum boost clock of 5.27 GHz. Higher frequencies are possible under certain conditions, such as when PBO is active. Recently, another test model of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D reached clock frequencies above 5.6 GHz. The L3 cache of the CPU is 96 MB, which corresponds to the value of the predecessor model and benefits applications that benefit from a large cache, such as modern games or CPU-intensive tasks.
Compared to the previous models of the Ryzen series, it is noticeable that the X3D variant of the 9800 shows a similar efficiency to its predecessors. It is rated as the first X3D CPU with improved single and multi-thread performance compared to the non-X3D version. It stands out from the Ryzen 9000 series without 3D V-Cache, such as the Ryzen 7 9700X. In combination with its performance data, the 9800X3D is therefore an option for both gaming and productivity-oriented applications.
The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is positioned as part of the Zen 5-based Ryzen 9000 series and brings with it not only increased efficiency but also 3D V-Cache technology. A recently delidded chip shows the structure of the 3D V-Cache stack, a technology that has enabled higher memory capacity and potentially improved efficiency since its introduction in the high-end segment. Energy consumption in gaming mode is estimated to average around 60 watts, which is significantly lower than the values measured for the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K. Intel chips can consume up to 100 watts, which underlines AMD’s focus on energy efficiency.
In terms of the performance of the current generation of CPUs, the comparison with Intel’s Core Ultra 200S is also striking, as it struggles to maintain the performance level of the previous generation. The benchmark results indicate that AMD’s position in the gaming and multitasking CPU sector has been further strengthened. The upcoming models could therefore represent a competitive option for users who are interested in both high gaming performance and energy efficiency.
