AMD Ryzen 7 3700X Processor (8C/16T, 36 MB Cache, 4.4 GHz Max Boost)

The AMD Ryzen 7 3700X is a fantastic processor that delivers exceptional performance for both gaming and productivity. With 8 cores and 16 threads, it handles multitasking and demanding applications with ease. The included Wraith Prism cooler is not only efficient but also features a customizable RGB fan, adding a stylish touch to your build. The processor is energy-efficient, running cool and quiet, and offers excellent value for its performance level. Whether you're building a high-performance gaming rig or a workstation, the Ryzen 7 3700X is a reliable and high-quality choice. Highly recommended!

I bought this CPU as to upgrade from my i7 4790k, not necessarily because I was expecting a huge performance increase but my 4th gen Intel chip was starting to show it's age with compatibility issues. So I moved to a new b450 motherboard and the 3700X CPU. This Chip runs a bit hotter than I'd expect it to (Although I am looking to upgrade to an AIO in the future to help with temps), it is a very capable chip, the temperatures whilst gaming aren't too bad and it keeps up with the high end Intel chips in gaming, but the deciding factor for me was the price was £40-60 cheaper than the equivalent Intel CPU and it basically does everything other than Gaming better than Intel. AMD have really stepped up with this CPU and I don't really have much negatives to say, there are a few, such as the turbo clock issues with AMD chips and motherboards (research it before buying). This should be fixed by the time anyone is reading this review but make sure you compare at what matters most to you, and I enjoy my gaming but I enjoy streaming and recording also, which helped make my choice clear that I'd go for an AMD CPU. With my previous Intel CPU streaming and gaming wasn't really possible as I would get stuttering from little bits of lag and it was noticeable enough to not be able to stream, with this new AMD CPU you still suffer from general FPS decrease (As does Intel) but it is a lot less worse, and I am not getting stuttering in any games in-fact. So it gets a huge thumbs up from me for this. I would recommend this CPU to others, I would say it easily hits a 8-9/10, the only downsides are that it's not as powerful as a 9700k or 9900k, and the temps can be a bit higher than you'd expect on Idle.

I upgraded from the R5 1600x on a B350 motherboard to the R7 3700x with the B450 MSI Carbon Gaming with an NZXT Kraken x73 AIO with 360mm rad, and kept my 1080Ti on both systems. I set up the board, CPU and RAM as a test bench first with the standard AMD Wraith cooler, after using Flashback on the MSI Bios to install a 3000 series compatible Bios on the B450 chipset. All worked, so I released the locking catch to remove the Wraith cooler to install the NZXT AIO. When I lifted the unhooked cooler free of the motherboard it actually ripped the CPU out of the socket because the standard thermal paste on the Wraith had set like glue, and the CPU was still stuck to the bottom of the cooler even though the retaining bar was still fully locked against the CPU socket on the motherboard. I had 6-7 bent CPU pins, which I was fortunately able to bend back without any snapping, and the CPU still works. Be aware of this if you fit the included cooler and intend to replace it with something different later. If you wiggle the cooler loose instead of pulling it off it shouldn't be an issue. I really wish AMD took notice of Intel and put the data pins on the socket, not on the chip. All the benchmarks I've used of the last week show a great improvement from the old CPU, so I'm happy with the purchase. Even with liquid cooling the CPU can still get to 66 C in games, and 71C under a full load stress test on an overclocked profile.

Got mine for my first custom built pc back in 2019. Looks wonderful and is excellent value for money. Still works brilliantly even to this day. Ive only had to replace the thermal paste once. Even under the torturous load of Blender 3d simulations and compositing it has never failed me. Stays relatively cool even with the stock heat sink and fan. Fits well and was easily installed.

Very fast CPU, AMD are constantly improving the microcode at the moment, I have my 3700x on X570 motherboard and with a recent BIOS update the latest AMD AGESA updates appear to have reduced temperatures slightly and performance has improved an additional 2%. Benchmarks are now around 4% higher than the average on passmark. I'm not that impressed with the Wraith Prism Cooler, it works and does a little RGB show that I cannot see most of the time as I have another machine next to my 3700x build. As I said the cooler works, but should be quieter but after a lot of Smart Fan tweaking I can live with it, for now. So glad AMD are back, this to me is the optimal CPU in the range for perfomrance/ price and power consumption, my current config: AMD Ryzen 7 3700x X570 AORUS Pro 32GB DDR4 C16 RAM GTX 1060 6GB DDR5 Not hugely into gaming, use this as my main machine with VMWare Workstation with up to 3 VMs Running, handles it effortlessly.

Hier voor had ik een i5 en ik wist niet zeker of ik voor een Intel i7 of voor AMD zou gaan. Toch de sprong gemaakt en ben zeer aangenaam verrast. Dit is een geweldige gaming-CPU! Ik zie niet eens de noodzaak in om dit ding te OC. Blijft koel, zelfs in turbo en tijdens het gamen. Ik speelde D2 in 4K, en deze CPU had slechts 35% belasting op alle 8 cores. Goed gedaan AMD, ik ben officieel een fan!

Purchased 2 for myself and my fiances new PCs. Both running very well. Hers is using the included Wraith Prism cooler which seems fine and she loves the RGB. Default fan curve is horrendous, but once adjusted runs a little warm but reasonably quiet. Mine has a Noctua D15 and runs very cool and inaudible. Performance and value for price paid is excellent. Alongside the 3600 this is still one of the best bang for buck around. Would recommend.

Ryzen 3700x Montado en ASUS Crosshair VII y con 16gb de gskill 3600, voy a valorar lo que me ha parecido este procesador. En si ha dado un buen paso en comparación al 2700x que es el que tenía anteriormente, de media sobre 10/20 fps a los juegos que normalmente juego, no entrare a valorar con otros juegos que nunca he usado, en multitarea la verdad que también he notado algo de mejoría respecto al 2700x. En cuanto a compatibilidad con la memoria, de momento no he tenido ningún problema en ponerlas a 3600, también decir que justo me ha llegado cuando han sacado el micro código AGESA 1.0.0.3AB para Asus, pero también me he encontrado con algún, pero, que ahora los comentare. Hacer OC ahora mismo con las bios que hay es bastante absurdo, saca bastante mas rendimiento en modo auto y con el PBO, pero también tiene algunas cosas que no me han gustado, por ejemplo el Voltaje se dispara, AMD ya ha salido diciendo que es normal, pero para mi gusto demasiado alto, tiene picos que casi llegan a 1.5v, luego las temperaturas dentro de Windows si no se activa el modo Balanceo de RYZEN son bastante altas, estamos hablando de una media de 50º y eso que voy con liquida custom, con la actualización del chipset y el modo balanceo la cosa ya cambia, esta en idle sobre 38º, en full carga alcanza sobre los 70º también por el alto voltaje que hay, espero que en poco tiempo mejoren este aspecto como en las anteriores generaciones. En cuanto si vale la pena coger la plataforma X570, en mi opinión por el precio que tiene si no es que necesitas el PCIE 4.0 mas vale coger una B450 o X470 y el dinero que sobra invertirlo en otro apartado. El apartado que menos me ha gustado, también hay que decir que depende del fabricante ahora mismo, es en el apartado de BIOS, apenas puedes tocar muchas cosas, dado que a la mínima ya no arranca, lo mejor a día de hoy estando como están la BIOS que se tienen que pulir es dejarlo en modo AUTO el apartado del procesado. Resumiendo, me parece una gran procesador y AMD ha vuelto hacer un producto muy competitivo, pero con precios ajustados, aun no hace ni un mes que han salido y bueno creo que las bios las tienen que pulir aun bastante, espero que para setiembre ya estén bien pulidas y poder aun exprimir mas el potencial de este procesador, a medida que vayan mejorando iré subiendo que tal va la mejora. EDITO: Justo ayer sacaron nueva BIOS y nuevo código de chipset, ahora ya he podido tocar parte del overclock, decir que en el tema voltajes aun me hace extraños o no mide muy bien la temperatura pero con el tema de OC en BIOS ahora va perfecto, he conseguido poner en nada las rams a 3600 con cl 16-16-15-15-32-42 y uns subtimings bastante bajos, el procesador lo he subido hasta 4.3Mhz con un voltaje de 1.280v no obstante las temperaturas me siguen exactamente igual, solo bajan las temperaturas a rangos normales cuando el procesador lo dejo en stock y si PBO ni nada, el stock del mismo son 3600Mhz todo lo que pase de allí las temperaturas se disparan, supongo que tienen que pulir aun mas los microcódigos y las bios, pero de momento van bien encaminados, cuando pongan otro cambio volveré a editar.

Still going strong!
