A few days ago, AMD officially unbanned the Ryzen 7 5800X3D processor, which is the first desktop CPU to use 3D V-Cache cache technology, with a total of 100MB cache, the game performance exceeds the Core i9-12900K processor, the domestic price is only 3099 yuan, and the cost performance is very high.
The only slot point of the Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D processor is overclocking, AMD is probably concerned about heat dissipation and power consumption, so it does not support Ryzen 7 5800X3D overclocking, the multiplier is not adjustable, can only exceed the memory frequency, which also limits the playability of the processor.
Since AMD does not allow overclocking, motherboard manufacturers from other angles to bypass the restrictions, MSI recently launched a BIOS based on AGESA 1.2.0.7 microcode, allowing users to increase the Ryzen 7 5800X3D BLC external frequency, because some of MSI's high-end motherboards are integrated with external frequency generators, which can be adjusted by themselves.
Compared to the default 100MHz external frequency, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D can be upgraded to 107MHz in the MSI BIOS, and with a multiplier of 45.5x, the frequency of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D easily reaches 4.85GHz, which is 350MHz higher than the default 4.5GHz frequency.
Of course, the performance after overclocking has also improved, and the single-core performance of the R23 has increased from 1485 to 1595 minutes, an increase of about 8%, which is basically proportional to the frequency.
Players interested in buying the Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D processor can pay attention to the fact that some of MSI's motherboards can be overclocked like this, and other manufacturers are not sure, which is also related to the external integrated frequency generator of the motherboard.
