    Went from an i9-9900k to this, got an increase of about 50% in some of the games im playing. Runs colder than my previous cpu with the same aio.

    Very efficient and fast. It was not a big jump over my 7800X3D I already owned. Increased my time spy score by 1k, did not make a noticeable difference in gaming other than the fps being slightly higher. Worth the upgrade if you’re on AM4, not so much if you’re already on AM5 with a X3D processor.

    Amazing Performance not just for Gaming but also for Productivity too. Just bought this for my Brother for his PC build and he noticed a HUGE bump in Performance from his intel processor.

    Coming from i7 11th gen intel, the difference is huge, you can play the most demanding games in high at 1080p even without a good graphics card, with the 3070 in RDR2 it went up to 100+fps from 50fps. I tried it with MSI Mag x870E. I think is the meta combo right now

    Its great. 10% boost on 1080p games a little less on 1440 and 4k games. Great gaming CPU. It does run a little hotter than 7800x3D, so make sure you set your cooling to compansate.

    Totally newbie here,, from what i can tell my processor has been great to my system. I pair it with a 5070 OC from Gigabyte. One might be over kill for the other (im not too too sure), regardless i think it’s great!

    If AMD has million fans, then I'm one of them. If AMD has one fan, then I'm THAT ONE. If AMD had no fans, that means I'm dead. AMD TILL THE DAY I DIE

    The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is the new king of gaming performance. The revolutionary 3D V-Cache technology delivers staggering frame rates, making it an essential upgrade for competitive gamers. On the AM5 platform, this 8-core beast balances efficiency with raw power perfectly. A top-tier processor for enthusiast builds.

    This fast efficient CPU is the centerpiece of my updated build. Was lucky that Best Buy got this in stock just as I was about to pull the trigger on a 7800x3d for a similar price. Now I’ll be able to game knowing I’ll never be CPU bottlenecked!

    Great gaming CPU. Runs a little toasty but to be expected of an X3d chip. Just put a nice cooler on it and don’t worry about it. Best chip in gaming right now for the money, highly recommend.

    The goat of all gaming CPUs as of right now. You will never CPU bottleneck with this dude unless you play CS2 at 1080p with a 5090 (why would you do that anyways)

    Upgraded from a 5900x and it was worth it! Playing 2160p and having one of the most powerful CPU’s on market helps. TLOU on Ultra, GTA 5 Enhanced on Max Ultra with no issues, no stutters.

    Fast cpu...with some tweaking. Was getting stuttering at first but just needed to adjust a setting in the bios. No problems since. Very happy with my purchase
