Hello all,

I have just upgraded to a 5700X3D from a 3600X. I cannot find the product support anywhere on the AMD website. There is a search bar and it simply isn't listed. How am I supposed to find the required drivers if its nowhere to be found?

Bw,

Lonk

Required drivers for the Ryzen 7 5700X3D?  There is Ryzen Master (select the 3000 series and newer) download.  Perhaps you are thinking about chipset drivers?  You should download the 'Auto-Detect and Install Driver Updates for AMD Radeon™ Series Graphics and Ryzen™ Chipsets' here.  Let the app find the chipset driver updates you need.

I agree that they don't have a selection for the Ryzen 7 5700X3D, but they do for the Ryzen 7 5700X CPU.  Either way, it only finds the Ryzen Master download that I've linked above.

Thanks for the response.

In the end I did use the auto tool for the chipset drivers.

Still, I think its frustrating from AMD to not list the 5700X3D in the search box below the auto-tool download.

Maybe I am being pedantic.

As the 5700X3D does not have an IGP there is no processor specific driver needed, and thus nothing to search for. And since it can not be overclocked, there would be little use for Ryzen Master as many of the features would be unavailable.

The 5700X3D is compatible in many 500, 400 and even 300 series chipsets, as @BigAl01 suggested the auto detect utility is the best method to find your chipset driver if you don't know what motherboard you have.

I didn't realize it couldn't be overclocked at all.  I guess that's due to the X3D extra memory on the chip.  I bet it's a decent gaming CPU though, even with no overclocking.
