Why the new AMD Ryzen 7000 processors for the AM5 socket are currently not a good deal
Why the new AMD Ryzen 7000 processors for the AM5 socket are currently not a good deal
Posted by Stefan on 2022-10-11
At the end of September 2022, the time had come: AMD presented its latest desktop processors called AMD Ryzen 7000. Initially, 4 processors with 6 to 16 CPU cores were released.

The new socket AM5 (LGA 1718) is used for the first time, which is intended to replace the very durable socket AM4 introduced in 2017 as AMDs mainstream platform. This includes (depending on the chipset) PCIe 5.0 support as well as the exclusive use of DDR5 memory on all AM5 mainboards.

Officially, DDR5-5200 is the maximum, but with AMDs EXPO Technology which is similar to Intel's XMP 3.0, AMD now also has a solution for easy overclocking of the main memory. AMD itself names DDR5-6000 as the sweet spot for the new AMD Ryzen 7000 processors.

The AMD Ryzen processors are designed for the mid to high-end range and are grouped into the Ryzen 3, Ryzen 5, Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 9 classes. AMD follows the market leader Intel, which groups its Core i series (Intel Core i3, Core i5, Core i7 and Core i9) identically.

The AMD Ryzen processors were first introduced by AMD in Q1 2017. They are the successor to the not particularly successful AMD Bulldozer processors. The latter were manufactured using an outdated manufacturing process and could not keep up with the competing products from Intel. AMD lost a large portion of its desktop processor market share during this period.

After we published a performance assessment of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X last week, the well-known AMD leaker Greymon55 has now posted more informations via Twitter.

He predicts the first four models of the new Zen 4 desktop generation, which AMD would like to present at the end of 2022. There is also an alleged release date of September 15, 2022.

Posted by Stefan on 2022-06-10
We give you a preview of AMD's new Zen 4 desktop processors and calculate the performance of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X top model for the new AM5 socket. The performance data and other technical details come directly from the press kit that AMD released as part of its Financial Analyst Day on June 9, 2022.

Up to 15 percent more single-core performance and 35 percent more multi-core performance of the 16-core model are realistic !

Comparison of the two processors

With these two processors, not only is the name quite similar, but the equipment is also very similar.

These two models are eight-core processors that support hyperthreading, which means that 16 threads are available to you if required. The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X has a free multiplier with which you can overclock it, this is denied to the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D.

The clock frequencies are also slightly different. The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X has a standard clock of 3.80 gigahertz and a maximum turbo clock frequency of 4.70 gigahertz. The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D has a slightly lower standard clock of 3.40 gigahertz and the maximum turbo clock is also slightly lower at 4.50 gigahertz.

In terms of performance, this small difference does not make a big difference. Unfortunately, we only have one benchmark for Geekbench in our database for the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D, but the values ​​support the assessment mentioned above.

Both processors do not have an internal graphics unit, so a dedicated graphics solution must be connected via the 20 PCI Express version 4.0 cables available on both processors.

The processors each have 2 memory channels and support up to 128 gigabytes of DDR4-3200 RAM. ECC memory, i.e. memory with automatic error correction, also supports both models. The processors then differ again in the size of the L3 compartment. While the level 2 cache is identical on both at 4.00 megabytes, the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X has a level 3 cache of only 32.00 megabytes, while the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D has a 96.00 megabyte level 3 cache.

Both processors were released together in the fourth quarter of 2020 and they are both manufactured using the 7-nanometer process and are based on the AM4 socket.
