The $449/£429 Ryzen 7 5800X3D is something a bit different from AMD, a processor that exists to demonstrate the power of the firm’s 3D V-Cache design for its upcoming Ryzen CPUs and fight off Intel’s 12900KS for the title of ‘fastest gaming processor’. It’s also something of a last hurrah for the surprisingly long-lived AM4 platform, which debuted back in 2017 and outlasted half a dozen Intel generations as Ryzen CPUs improved in leaps and bounds.
