Easier to justify buying than the 5800X3D was
No need to fiddle with power settings to optimize power efficiency
Finally 3DV-Cache for Zen 4
Incredible energy efficiency
Matches Core i9-13900K gaming performance
Great gaming performance improvement over previous Zen 4 CPUs
Customization options available for scheduler priority
It's easy to manually override gam
Very good gaming performance
Modern 5-nm manufacturing process with 3D V-Cache
16 cores and 32 threads
Very high system performance throughout
Very efficient
Futureproof
PCI Express 5.0 support
Tangible gaming performance lead
Remarkable efficiency
Lower raw CPU performance
Costly compared to the competition

The editors didn't like
Great All-Around Performance
AMD's Fastest Gaming CPU
Relatively Low Power
Some Overclocking Support
The 7950X and i9-13900K can go faster in non-games when they're allowed to use more power
Limited overclocking
If that's something you care about
Hard to actually find
Cheaper 7800X3D won't be available until April
High price
Thermal limit lowered to 89°C
No multiplier-based overclocking
3DV-Cache only on one CCD
Few games aren't properly detected as game
Some setup/verification required for optimum performance
Abstract: The best gaming CPU, but not quite the one chip to do it all. Read our Ryzen 9 7950X3D Review.AMD'S attempt to create the ultimate gaming and productivity chip has almost worked with the Ryzen 9 7950X3D. It has once again proven the power of the 3D V-...
