Came across this shop selling the ryzen 7 7800x3d fairly cheap compared to other sellers. Was tempted to buy but still holding out until the new ryzen 7 announcement.
Note: they charge up to 30% on returns based on their return policy so just keep that in mind.
Limit 3 per order.
Where have you heard the 15% increased gaming? I've heard clocked higher but no double digit gains yet.
It's all just rumours. Don't take anything anyone says as real until the product is released and there are benchmarks
And then wait for the benchmarks to be re-done with the correct drivers…
His source is trust him bro 😂
Yeah i didn't have any credible source on that 15% but glad it started the discussion.
I do think even minor fps gains from the 9800x3d will see the second hand market flooded with these.
Supposedly 200Mhz clock bump, which is not a lot for gaming. So an IPC improvement of about 3% with a 4% clock bump, but who knows if Zen5 X3D will unleash more gains for this architecture. Prices for 9800X3D will also be higher, AMD has increased prices.
I really doubt that you will get 15% improvement.
Particularly with how 9000 series has been so far.. any gains are likely to average around 3-5%
Obviously only until launch will be find any info.
I think while the current 2 game promo is still active. People should get this as it makes the deal more appealing and offsets any future drops in price or gains from the 9800x3d
7800X3D was limited by heat/clocks. Zen 5 apparently has the cache connected differently so if it can achieve full clock speeds it's possible it'll be close to 15%.
I think it may be realistic. 5-10% on architecture alone and besides the clocks they mentioned they are working on unlocking the auto overclocking even more so extra 5% might be possible on the higher end.
I would expect it to average around the 10% mark though. It depends what the CPU is for. If games than the lower end of the range is the more probable one.
@goodwillN1: 9000 series has the same architecture and pipelines as 7000 series ? Just slightly higher core density/clocks?
Yup.
7700x to 9700x was around 3.5% improvement.
The 9800x3d is probably going to be around 5% improvement, with maybe a possibility of up to 10% via overclocking.
So black myth is around 2% faster but far cry is 16% faster. We will need more games bust looking at that I won't be far off with my estimate of an average 3-5% faster. it will be out soon enough to know real world data.
15% gaming improvement
really just 15% cinebench
TBH, I don't think any CPU change is going to make my gaming 15% better. It's more likely to just allow me to see better just how much I suck.
What socket and chipset does the 9800x3d require? Same as the 7xxx series?
yeah, AM5, apparently the next gens will use it until at least 2027 too, so maybe another release or two.
Hearing rumours release is due EOM due to poor 9000 series sales. I think whatever the improvement over the 7000 series, they will come down in price due to this.
Wow, these have really spiked back up haven't they. They were regularly ~$530 until the 9000 series came out. I'd definitely be waiting till the 9800x3d releases at this point

Take into consideration you get 2 free games with current promotion
Valued at around $160
Well that depends if you want the games or not.
While true for those who do it makes it more appealing
That promotion has been running since August 6th
Ohhh then the first link above actually is the best deal
Probably because the 9000 series releases have been so bad for gaming purposes, everyone's just buying 7000 series CPUs instead.
FYI reached out to Toptek sales, they are not part of the free game promotion
Ohh well this deal is a lot less attractive spend the extra 50 and go through jw or scorptec
kind of funny to justify paying triple the price vs the aliexpress 5700x3Ds for ~20% more performance…
But that would also mean end of life for your am4 system with 5800x3d
yes, obviously, but at triple the price? I'd rather wait for something that justifies it than buy this CPU at this time and price, but sure.
These could be had for $465 from AliExpress when coupon stacking with those spend x get y discounts.
In fact, I saw them go even lower, around the $450 mark.
(source : I bought one)
9800x3d releasing very soon. Higher clocks, 15% gaming improvement yada yada these should get cheaper.
