Customer Ratings & Reviews

I absolutely love this CPU. Has super great gaming performance and draws so little power to do so. Its rated at 120 watts but under a gaming load it hovers around 55w at most.

The value you get out of this chip is insane. As a point of reference, I'd upgraded from a 3700x. My GPU is a 3080ti, so in most newer games I was CPU limited. I easily see an increase of 20% to even 60% (!!!) in my frame rates when gaming. I play a lot of Star Citizen, the primary driver for this upgrade, and I went from an average of 15-25 FPS with terrible 1% lows to getting a minimum of 45 FPS and even up to 100% outside of the city areas. If you're a couple generations behind, run to get this chip! It is well worth it.

Great cpu to have and it works effortlessly! A nice upgrade from my 5 series model.

Been gaming with this baby for a bit now and it is awesome! Runs all programs and apps great. Solid work horse for a good PC build

I was nervous to install this due to the Reddit reviews about the pins being damaged on the back. Whoever wrote those reviews obviously did not follow the instructions for installation. It was super easy. My husband is loving this system

I'm running it on a b650 live mixer mother board Ana a alpha one core 1 carbon fiber water block temps seem to run on the 45 to 47 at idle and set up as far as you can push it 72 c so all in all you can not ask for a here l better gaming gpu 220 fps in cyber punk on ultra settings with ray tracing on with a 7900 xtx gpu hooked to it no issues at all

Incredible gaming performance for how little power it draws, highly recommend if you are gaming only.

Best CPU out there Bang for your buck Beast Mode

This is an upgrade form me from a 4th gen Intel i5, so yeah ... I noticed an improvement. The cpu itself is surprisingly weighty, but installation is a breeze. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that a lot of the coolers for the AM4 socket also work for the AM5 socket. Best Buy does not reflect this on the website when using the filtering options, but if you inspect the cooler information on the page you can see it. So yeah, great value on display.

AMD Ryzen CPU with MSI B650 Tomahawk Motherboard. Great performance!

I upgraded to this from the 12 core 24 thread 7900X that I purchased at the release of the Zen 4 architecture. I normally play Rust on PC so I wanted to maximize frame rates. The 7800X3D was the natural selection and I've regretted absolutely nothing. Paired mine with some fast high-quality DDR5-6400MHz RAM and I am set!

I've been using it for over a year now. This is the best processor with great speed.

Great CPU. I tried to stay away from it since I do not do any hardcore gaming but during one of my builds I needed it needless to say Im in love with it. Does everything I need done with no problems. Plus the little gaming I do, do is that much smoother and great do to the 3d cache. It does run a bit hot but well within parameters of what is should .

Excellent processor for new builder who want high performance at a lower cost

Very very fast. Plays all my games very fast. Easy to install. Works perfectly.

This is a great processor when installed on a Gigabyte b650 AORUS Elite AX motherboard. Since I'm not using it for gaming, I'm not using the overclocking utility for the processor that comes with the motherboard, but it's nice to know that I can if I choose to do so. But as it is, with 128GB RAM installed, it serves my everyday purpose just fine and hopefully will continue to do so for years to come. One slight disadvantage is that the RAM only runs at 3600 MHz out of its 4800 MHz rating, since it is a 4-RAM stick configuration.

Incredible performance. Highly recommend for new and builds

Solid gaming CPU. Upgraded from a 5800x and this was a jump in performance for gaming. Didn't see a huge increase in 3D Mark scores, but definitely can see an increase on FPS for all games played so far. With AM5 adding increased speeds for memory, M2, PCIE all help to improve FPS and load times. Been using almost daily for a month and only with no issues. Compared to the 5800x this CPU runs much cooler. Rarely hear the CPU fans running at full even under heavy loads.

Fast and efficiant. Plays high end games very well and pairs great with my 4090.

Is amazing how the 1% lows in games raise ans the stabilty it gives to it
