Blender 3.1 Benchmark
In the Blender Benchmark 3.1, the scenes "monster", "junkshop" and "classroom" are rendered and the time required by the system is measured. In our benchmark we test the CPU and not the graphics card. Blender 3.1 was presented as a standalone version in March 2022.

Blender is a free 3D graphics software for rendering (creating) 3D bodies, which can also be textured and animated in the software. The Blender benchmark creates predefined scenes and measures the time (s) required for the entire scene. The shorter the time required, the better. We selected bmw27 as the benchmark scene.

Comparison of the two processors
The AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT is a small refresh of the AMD Ryzen 7 3800X. Apart from slightly increased clock frequencies of 200 to 300 MHz, nothing has changed in the design of the CPU cores.Both processors have 8 cores, which they clock with 4.2 GHz (AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT) or 3.9 GHz (AMD Ryzen 7 3800X) in the base. The clock frequencies in the Turbo area are 4.7 and 4.5 GHz (single-core load) and 4.5 and 4.2 GHz (multi-core load). Both CPUs support SMT and can process 16 threads in parallel. In addition, both CPUs can be overclocked, although the XT processors of the 3rd Ryzen generation usually have a higher chip quality, but are delivered at the limit from the factory. However, both processors are not extremely clock-friendly.
Both the AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT and the AMD Ryzen 7 3800X have no integrated graphics (iGPU) and require a dedicated graphics card for operation, which is connected via the PCIe slot. Both processors support the current PCIe 4.0 and can therefore address graphics cards or fast M.2 PCIe SSDs particularly quickly.
The two CPUs do not differ in terms of production technology either. AMD has the CPUs manufactured in the 7 nm process by the contract manufacturer TSMC. The processors for the AM4 socket both have a TDP of 105 watts, but can easily exceed this energy under full load.
AMD gives both the AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT and the older AMD Ryzen 7 3800X a full 32 MB L3 cache. AMD doubled the cache with the 3rd Ryzen generation, as the previous generation (Zen +) sometimes had to struggle with problems in applications and PC games. Both processors compared here no longer have the cache weakness and can therefore keep up well with current Intel processors in games. In multi-core applications, both CPUs are usually faster than equivalent Intel Core i5 / i7 processors.
