![]() ![]() Where the 5800X3D will still have an edge is in specific highly-CPU bound games that can benefit from its huge cache (such as Borderlands 3). The Ryzen 7 5800X3D is a fantastic gaming processor, but on average, for our 12-game mix, the 7700X can pull ahead. The differences are small though, the other Ryzens are still formidable CPUs for gaming, but if gaming is your primary focus, then the 7700X is your best choice. This single CCD configuration helps make a difference in gaming, because things are better localized and there's no inter-CCD latency penalties. The underlying reason is that the 7900X and 7950X use a dual-CCD design, where the processor's computation ability is spread across two silicon dies, while the 7600X and 7700X use only a single CCD. At 1080p, the 7700X is the fastest Zen 4 processor for gaming-yes, even faster than the 7950X. Intel's i9-12900K is only 7% faster in applications, the Ryzen 9 7900X, also released today, is 15% faster, and the 7950X impresses with a 26% lead. Another impressive achievement is that the Ryzen 7700X beats AMD's last generation flagship, the Ryzen 9 5950X, by a small margin in application performance. This makes performance slightly faster than the outgoing Intel Core i7-12700K, which needs eight P-Cores, plus four E-Cores (8P+4E) to keep up. That 30% is a huge increase in performance, gen-over-gen, and AMD achieved it without increasing the core count-7700X is still an 8-core processor. Averaged over our 45 application tests, we find the Ryzen 7 7700X a highly impressive 30% faster than its Ryzen 7 5700X predecessor, and 20% faster than the 5800X. We've spent months working on a new and improved CPU benchmarking suite, with tons of new apps and games, and every processor was retested with the latest Windows 11 updates, game patches and drivers. AMD has also increased the TDP from 65 W to 105 W, which brings with it more headroom for boosting to higher clocks, but also increases cooling requirements, but more on that later. The chip runs at a base clock of 4.5 GHz and boosts up to 5.4 GHz-an 800 MHz increase over the 5700X. In this review we're examining the Ryzen 7 7700X, which is the company's 8-core/16-thread offering for Zen 4. Last but not least, AMD is finally including integrated graphics across the board, even with their non-APU processors, which will be extremely useful when building a rig that will only see light activity, such as office productivity, light browsing, or a media PC. The new socket has support for all the latest technologies: PCI-Express 5.0 for graphics and NVMe storage DDR5 memory, and also higher power delivery capability. Also new is that compatible motherboards use the swanky "Socket AM5," which does away with the pins on the processor and uses an LGA package, similar to what Intel has been using for nearly two decades now. It starts with the new Zen 4 architecture, which improves instruction-per-clock by well over 13% and adds support for AVX-512 and acceleration for AI workloads. With Zen 4, AMD has made significant improvements to nearly all parts of their platform. The four new CPUs were detailed just a few weeks ago, now we can share everything with you. ![]() Today the day! AMD allowed reviewers to start publishing their Zen 4 Ryzen 7000 Series processor reviews. ![]()
