Ryzen 7 5700X3D vs Ryzen 7 5800X3D

These are the last big upgrade for anyone with an AM4 motherboard and DDR4 memory. Both have 8 cores, 16 threads and 96 MB of L3 cache with 3D V-Cache; the only real difference is clock speed.

Ryzen 7 5700X3D

Pick it if…

You want 3D cache at the lowest possible price and can live with a few fewer frames in CPU-bound games.

Ryzen 7 5800X3D

Pick it if…

You find the 5800X3D at a similar price: its higher clocks give it a slight edge with the same motherboard and memory.

Note. AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D, AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D do not include integrated graphics: you need a dedicated graphics card.

Performance

Scores from 0 to 100 calculated from sourced benchmarks. If there is no real data, nothing is shown.

There are no sourced benchmarks for these CPUs yet

To avoid making up data, the gaming, productivity, single-core, multi-core and efficiency scores will appear once you load real results in src/data/benchmarks.ts, citing the source of each one.

Price and performance

Relative performance (in games) divided by the current price. It is a figure to interpret, not a verdict.

Comparison breakdown

Clock speeds

The 5800X3D runs at 3.4 GHz base and 4.5 GHz boost; the 5700X3D drops to 3.0 and 4.1 GHz. With the same cache and the same cores, the 5800X3D performs a bit better, but the gap is smaller than the one between either of them and a Ryzen 5000 chip without 3D cache.

Compatibility

Both work on AM4 motherboards with DDR4 up to an official 3200 MT/s. Before installing either one, update your motherboard BIOS to a version that supports X3D models (especially on B450 and X470 boards). Neither has integrated graphics or supports multiplier overclocking.

Power

Both have a 105 W TDP, so a decent tower cooler is a good idea. If you already have a Ryzen 5 3600 or 5600, switching to either one is among the most cost-effective gaming upgrades you can make without touching your motherboard or memory.
