Best cpu choosing between r7 7800x3d and r9 7900x3d

Hello everyone,

I want to choose a new processor for myself and I don't know which one to choose between the two options r7 7800x3d and r9 7900x3d. According to the reviews I have done, r7 is much more popular and even in performance it can easily compete with r9 and even beat it in some cases. But I noticed that recent tests and published news about these two processors show that r9 has become a more powerful processor than r7. However, your opinion is very important to me and really influences my decision. The important thing is that in my country both of these processors are strangely at the same price. The next point is that I only need these processors for gaming. Thank you for sharing your opinion on this thread.

To me it makes more sense to run the 7800X3D. All 8 cores get the Vcache. Only 6 get it on the 7900X3D.

 

Especially in a gaming only rig. 

Performance over Pretty.

How did you know that?  I bought the 7800X3D recently too, over the 7900X3D.  My reasons were the power levels of the CPU.  I didn't know that only 6 cores get the extra Vcache on the 7900X3D.

As Albert Einstein said, "I could have done so much more with a Big Al's Computer!".

I didn't know that either. Very interesting, I guess I learned something new today.

Ryzen 7800X3D - RTX 4090 FE - MSI Tomahawk X670e MB - 64gb 6000mhz G-Skill Neo - Noctua NH D15 - Seasonic Focus V3 GX-1000W PSU - 4TB Samsung Gen. 5 NVMe - Fractal Torrent Case - ROG PG48UQ OLED

Wouldn't it be funny to see how would a 16 VCache CPU perform? 😁

I'm sure AMD has one laying around for fun & tests 😁

If all you are looking for is gaming, then I would get the 7800X3D.  There is no risk that a game would be incorrectly threaded to non 3D Vcache cores that exist on the 7900X3D.

For gaming, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D is a better choice due to its superior gaming performance and similar pricing to the Ryzen 9 7900X3D. The 7800X3D consistently outperforms the 7900X3D in many gaming benchmarks, making it the ideal option for gamers.
