Yesterday, it was revealed that the AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D will be listed on April 20, with a speculative pricing of $449 (the same as when the Ryzen 7 5800X was listed). Although many media pointed out that the processor is benchmarked against the 12th-generation Core i9-12900K, from the performance level to the market pricing level, this benchmark seems to be somewhat untenable.
The biggest feature of the AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D is that it stacks another 64MB 3D V-Cache on the L3 cache, plus 4MB L2 cache, for a total of up to 100MB, AMD claims that its gaming performance can be improved by an average of 15% and up to 40% (compared to the 12-core Ryzen™ 9 5900X is 36%). So can the Ryzen 7 5800X3D challenge the i9-12900K?
From the perspective of product performance analysis, AMD Zen4 architecture Ryzen™ 7000 series processors, although the news is accelerating the listing, but the real listing or need to wait until next year. Therefore, this Ryzen 7 5800X3D belongs to the rescue positioning of AMD discontinuous products, and at the expense of the relatively small market demand of the Ryzen™ 9 5950 production capacity, the production method transferred to the 3D-Cache type 58000X3D belongs to the high-precision product line to produce lower-value products, but this is what consumers like to see; and AMD in order to maintain the continuous supply of TSMC's production capacity, it is a helpless move.
From the perspective of market pricing, it has been exposed that the Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D is priced at $449, plus 13% tax after about 3200 yuan. Such a price is higher than the current price of 3000 yuan for its own Ryzen 9 5900X, but corresponding to the 12th generation Core product line, similar products are i7-12700K. So if you look at it according to this logic, the real benchmark product of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D should be the i7-12700K.
Finally, the editor found that a variety of Ryzen™ 5000 series processors in the official flagship store of AMD, an e-commerce platform today, have reduced prices, and interested friends do not put down to understand.
In fact, yesterday the editor also checked the price of this processor, and it was still quoted at 2599 yuan. After this reduction to 2299 yuan, it not only improves the cost performance, but also makes way for the listing of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D.
It can be seen that the flagship processor of the Ryzen 5000X is 3999 yuan, which is the same special price as last Friday.
If you have recently appealed to the entry-level model to save the machine, and suffer from the price of the unique display is still high, you may wish to consider AMD's two G-end processors.
Therefore, at present, AMD's strategy in terms of processors is to adjust the price to accelerate the digestion of Ryzen™ Ryzen 9 series high-end processors, so that the Ryzen 7 5800X3D carries a variety of halos, and flies for a while before the Ryzen 7000 series has more specific news.
