Regarding the Ryzen 7800x3D performances overall
Is the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D the Best Gaming CPU Right Now?
Is the AMD Ryzen 7 78003DX still the best bang for the buck higher performance CPU?
What makes the Ryzen 7800X3D so recommended?
Hello here, I keep reading that this CPU might be the best CPU ever when it comes to GAMING, from the previous year, but it confuses me a bit.
By "best CPU for gaming", does that mean this CPU only shines for this specific use and will not be that impressive for anything else ? Like, for instance, streaming and gaming at the same time, having several softwares opened like a browser, several tabs in the browser, discord etc. and so on ?
It confuses me because sometimes people are comparing a Ryzen 7 7700x and the 7800x3D, and while the former seems to be also very good, most people tend to answer "IF for gaming, 7800x3D hands down". But by answering that way, does that mean the CPU is aimed for a user who's gonna only turn on his computer to launch a video game and nothing else ?
I'm planning to make a new configuration since my current one is kinda old now (from 2017 : GTX 1070, i5 7600k, 16gb DDR4), and I would like to make it good for 1440p gaming but also for the general uses listed above... And the more I try to figure out which CPU might be good for the years to come, since I don't want to upgrade every generations, things have been a bit complicated for me especially with this Ryzen 7800x3D.
And by 1440p, I mean a 1440p with 165 hz (180 oc), and for the games it will mostly be fighting games (Tekken 8, Street Fighter 6), and maybe some RPG like Baldur's Gate 3, but maybe some others depending on what will be next !
What's appealing to me with the 7800x3D, beside its raw performances, is also its power usage, which seems to be far lower than its Intel counterparts and even from most of the others ryzen 7 CPUs.
But for a user like me who likes to keep his configuration as long as possible, is this 7800x3D a good pick over a 7700x, or even over those Intel 13th/14th ones although their socket is at the end of its life?
EDIT : thanks for all the answers, everyone !
Hey everyone!
I'm currently using an AMD Ryzen 9 3900X with an RTX 4070ti for gaming, but I feel like my CPU is bottlenecking my setup. I've read that the AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D is top-tier for gaming. Would upgrading to this CPU give a noticeable FPS boost in new, demanding games?
Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!
