Solid choice for the next few chips!

Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2023

The AMD Ryzen 9 7000 7950X3D is a testament to the relentless innovation from AMD. Leveraging the cutting-edge 3D V-cache technology, this processor offers performance levels previously unseen in the consumer CPU market.

From a sheer computational perspective, it effortlessly handles intense multi-threaded applications and provides remarkable gaming performance. The added cache delivers a palpable improvement in latency-sensitive tasks, ensuring that users get a snappier and more responsive computing experience.

The thermals and power efficiency, aided by the refined architecture, mean that not only is this chip fast, but it also runs cooler and more efficiently than its predecessors. This leads to quieter PC operations, even under load.

In the realm of content creation, gaming, and general multitasking, the 7950X3D stands out as a behemoth. The seamless integration with the AM4 platform is a boon for those looking to upgrade without overhauling their entire system.

To conclude, the AMD Ryzen 9 7000 7950X3D is a game-changer. It underscores AMD's commitment to pushing the boundaries of what's possible in consumer-grade processors. If you're in the market for uncompromised performance, this CPU is a stellar choice. Highly recommended!

The new AMD chip are easier to and install and harder to break which was a big plus for someone like me building there first PC. This thing is a power house and runs great! Definitely worth the money.

Fastest gaming CPU on the planet

Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2024

fastest gaming CPU - that is Tom's Hardware's opinion: and so far it has lived up to that for me. I got this on sale for only $10 more than the 7900 and it was very much worth it! AMD has managed to make this thing deliver at a remarkably low 95W TDP as well - quite remarkable. Happily your socket AM4 cooler with fit on your new motherboard, although in my case it required a trip to the hardware store to buy 4 metric bolts (the backplate is now integral, and for some coolers, like my TT waterblock, you have to screw into the backplate directly).

Did you pick up on the "new motherboard" comment? You're going to need one - AMD has moved to LGA rather than PGA for their new chips and socket AM5, and they only support DDR5 as well, so you're going to need some new RAM - BUT if you don't cheap out, buy a high-end board and EXPO certified RAM and get ready to launch moon rockets, or anything else your heart desires, with a very very fast system.

I got a good one I guess. Runs pretty darn good. Haven't noticed any negative effects similar to what people have been talking about. I paired it with an asus ryujin II 360 and this thing actually runs decently cool. Have yet to break into the low 70s while gaming. That might change if I play something more CPU dependant though I have yet to experience such.

This thing is a powerhouse of a processor. Paired it with a PowerColor RX 7900xtx and well, they’re absolutely made for each other. No compatibility issues, and it just flows so well and surprisingly doesn’t run that hot without liquid cooling.

Bought this to run servers and it does great. Short of stepping up to a server CPU it was the next best thing.

Expensive and not as fast as advertised

Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2023

So, first off, I paid $690 for this CPU, replacing an older one so I could play Starfield and upgrade to Windows 11. It claimed to run overclocked at 5.7 ghz. I wanted the fastest best chip. All other CPUs I ever bought from AMD had the overclocking unlocked. This one was not and the software from AMD said it could NOT be unlocked due to the 3D feature. So, it's sold as running at 5.7 ghz, but the software they released says it can't, I couldn't get it to, and my computer shop wasn't able to. I put all that in just for anyone that will say I simply don't know what I'm doing. I called AMD. I wrote them. I read their website and articles. It runs at 4.2, which is barely a little faster than my previous AMD cpu from 2012. 4.2 is much slower than 5.7. They also promised a free Star Wars game with it, but AMD didn't honor the promotion. Within a couple of weeks of selling it to me at the insanely high price, they were discounting it as much as $130. So, I felt stupid for trusting them. I will say, it does run fine. I was able to upgrade to Windows 11 and I do run Starfield with it. Ironically, the only software I had any trouble running came from AMD itself. I'm using it fine with an expensive motherboard, 64GB RAM and an AMD 12GB graphics card. Other than overclocking or getting it to run any faster than 4.2 ghz, I have had no problems with this processor. But since 4.0 processors have been out well over a decade, this is way too much to pay for a 4.2 one. If anyone at AMD or anywhere else actually gets this processor running at 5.7 ghz, I still overpaid, but I'd at least be happier with the purchase. I've got lots of computers and you'd think they'd want happy customers. I've always chosen AMD because of their price, warranty and customer service, but this time it's not broken, so it's not a warranty replacement issue. According to their own software, it can't be unlocked which means it's not designed to EVER really run at 5.7. Too bad nearly every place that sells it still claims that it does, including AMD's website. Like I said, even my overpaid computer techs could not get it to run anywhere near the OC speed. On the other hand that meant it has never overheated, but this could also be because I overpaid for the best water cooling system. There's no game or app my previous cpu liked that isn't better on this one. I hope AMD reads this, gives me the free game, and makes their software and processor work as their website claims. If they do those things, well, it's still too expensive to get all the stars. I was too generous with my money as well as with the stars in this review. But it does run my computer and it does that well. It just doesn't run nearly as fast, isn't running the Star Wars game because they didn't keep their promise and cost way too much. Oh, I also thought the customer service person was rude at AMD, unlike Amazon who are usually super nice. I could give you all the technical details, but others have done that. I told you what matters to me, a nearly lifelong AMD fanboy.

Great if you use Process Lasso

Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2024

This CPU is amazing when used with Process Lasso.

You set the Preferred Cores to CCD1 (Performance Cores) in the Bios and Disable GameBar and GameMode. You then use Process Lasso to set your Games to run on CCD0 (x3D Cache Cores) while chrome and all other background task run on CCD1 (Performance Cores). That way my 8 Vcache cores are dedicated to Gaming and my other 8 Cores run my background task. Then when you swap to workstation workload and done gaming you are back to a full 16core CPU

Pretty Sweet
