AMD's Silent Launch: Ryzen 5 7600X3D CPU Review & Benchmarks vs. 7800X3D, 5700X3D, 9800X3D

AMD silently launched its AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D CPU via Micro Center as an exclusive part, following a prior exclusive launch of the R5 5600X3D. We bought one from Micro Center to test. This benchmark looks at the AMD R5 7600X3D vs. 5600X3D, 5700X3D, 5800X3D, 7800X3D, and 9800X3D, alongside several other CPUs (like the 7600X) and Intel's alternatives, which include the Ultra 5 245K and some others.

Intel launches an entire gen that targets power efficiency.
Amd silent launches the most efficient cpu.

AMD: "we're just going to push the Intel ultra chips all the way down the charts cause we can"

450$ at microcenter for a WHOLE mb+memory+cpu is INSANE. If I didn't want a 9800x3d so bad, I would jump on this deal. Matching 7800x3d in most games while being more efficient? That's an absolute robbery at 7800x3d msrp and being cheaper than a single 9800x3d.

I genuinely forgot this thing existed even though I distinctly remember that I read a few articles on it being a MCenter exclusive. I guess that makes the two of us lol

Jesus 9800x3d for MAX WIN

and 7600x3d for MAX efficiency ? JESUS

Thanks for hanging on to the Ryzen R5 3600 in some of the charts. I mostly care about light productivity workloads like compiling and it's interested to see how there's (barely) been a doubling of per-core performance after so many years and generations.

Picked up the 7600x3D CPU/Mobo/RAM bundle a few weeks back and have been loving it. Grabbed it at the Microcenter in Westmont, IL. I paired it with a 7900XT that I grabbed for $630 during the October Newegg sales. Don’t regret it at all.

For its power draw this seems like one hell of a little gaming CPU

[lolmachine]

In Germany, the 7600X3D has been available on Mindfactory for quite some time now. I was pretty surprised to see it even existed, but did not hesitate to put the X3D into my cart instead of the regular 7600 for my mostly-gaming ITX build. This review gives me further assurance I made the right decision.

Microcenter Chicago has been selling their pre-made with these for a few weeks I think. At a very delicious price too!!

[ChairmanMeow]

AMD sure are covering their bases with this one

[maxyoung]

So glad you guys covered this, always wondered how it would stack up in a proper review. I built an SFF system for a friend using the 7600X3D, figured the slight loss in performance would be worth the lower heat generation. Seems like I made the right call!

[vedinthorn]

Man, from scrappy competitor, to technically a better deal, to nearly insolvent, to releasing CPUs because f*ck you Intel, we just can. AMD has a crazy story arc.

[Zapdos]

i was actually gonna ask when you were gonna review this but here it is!

[jeph]

I just searched your channel 2 hours ago looking for a review before I bought one. I don't think I'll ever buy something again without checking your reviews lol

[Gloomworks]

just picked up my 7600x3d bundle from mc this morning cant wait to put the build together after hearing this review

[ElderGamerX]

I got the $450 bundle with the 7600x3d, a b650 ASUS gaming plus wifi board, and 32 GB of 6000/32 ram a few weeks back. Couldn't be happier with the setup (even though I wanted to dodge ASUS in general), and it looks like it'll have plenty of headroom at 1440p for a GPU upgrade or two. Also got the Peerless Assassin CPU cooler and the Lancool 207 after the GN reviews on them, and even when playing around with overclocking the GPU playing FF16, the whole system is staying under 60*C. The only downside of the whole thing was the 5 1/2 hour round trip to Micro Center...

[fwixgamer]

the king cpu for SFF gaming builds with passive cooling, can't get any better .

[MedicineMomvlog]

Thanks Steve, back to Steve. No, the other Steve.

YOOO! I swear I mentioned having a 7600x3d review would be amazing this morning, after watching the CPU review. I come home from work and its HERE
