CPU Benchmark Performance: Power, Office, and Science
Our previous set of ‘office’ benchmarks has often been a mix of science and synthetics, so this time we wanted to keep our office section purely on real-world performance.
For the remainder of the testing in this review of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, we are using DDR4 memory at the following settings:
- DDR4-3200
Power
Looking at the power draw between the Ryzen 7 5800X3D and the other chips tested, it is more power-efficient than the original Ryzen 7 5800X. This could be down to a load VID core voltage as the 5800X3D is actually clocked lower by 100 MHz at turbo clock speeds.
Office
In our office benchmark, the newer Ryzen 7 5800X3D performs similarly to the previous Ryzen 7 5800X processor.
Science
Our science-based benchmarks, for the most part, show that the Ryzen 7 5800X is slightly better computational-wise than the Ryzen 7 5800X3D. This is primarily due to the 5800X being clocked 100 MHz higher than the newer 5800X3D.
Where the extra L3 cache can benefit performance, it does, including in AI Benchmark, but overall the performance is very similar between both chips.

Sure 15% more marketing BS eh ? Here's one which shows 8% tops. Also TPU scores all are over the place, when I checked 11900K review of 10900K benches and then in 12900K benches. Still it's some metric to use. Also go and check out Tomshardware that I mentioned in the last page. There's not even 10% difference you say 15% this type of BS is really annoying.https://tpucdn.com/review/amd-ryzen-7-5800x3d/imag...

It depends on the games, sure. Still your response was nonsense, the 5800X3D is far better for gaming than the 5900X, those extra cores are completely useless to gamers.hfm - Friday, July 1, 2022 - link
100% true. My 3080 is still the bottleneck more often than not, not my 5600X. Unless you're competing at esports or playing a game that is actually CPU bottlenecked, for most people a 5600X is still more than enough. Both the 5800X3D and 5900X are still enthusiast level or if you know you need it for productivity where time == money.Khanan - Friday, July 1, 2022 - link
Too bad that it’s over 20% faster than the 5800X in this review: https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/uJUYKcHoYUmhoUw5... Generally AMD doesn’t lie, the 15% estimation is correct.Khanan - Friday, July 1, 2022 - link

[META] Could you please NOT include auto-playing videos on all pages? When I'm sitting in a park, my laptop tethered to my mobile phone for internet access, the last thing that I need is something that drains my battery and my data plan!nandnandnand - Thursday, June 30, 2022 - link
You should install AdblockPlus or something.Khanan - Friday, July 1, 2022 - link
Nah, he is right.hfm - Friday, July 1, 2022 - link
It would be nice to be able to give them the ad revenue without it being an egregious overstepping of bounds.Silma - Thursday, June 30, 2022 - link
It would be useful to factor in energy costs, perhaps over 3 years. Pretty sure AMD's offering will destroy Intel's one.Also please don't stop at listing processors TDP, but show a more realistic number.
