The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is an 8-core, 16-thread Zen 5 desktop processor for the AM5 platform, built for high frame rates in CPU-heavy games thanks to 96MB of second-generation 3D V-Cache. This tray version ships without a cooler.
Key features
- 8 cores and 16 threads on Zen 5, boosting up to 5.2GHz
- 96MB L3 3D V-Cache (104MB total cache) for CPU-bound games such as simulation, strategy and high-FPS esports titles
- AM5 platform with DDR5 memory and PCIe 5.0
- Overclockable through PBO, the first X3D chip to support it
- Basic AMD Radeon integrated graphics
- Tray version: cooler not included

Good to know
Pair it with an AM5 motherboard and DDR5 memory; AMD EXPO profiles help you run higher memory speeds. Older AM5 boards may need a BIOS update. A 240-280mm liquid cooler or an equivalent high-performance air cooler is recommended.
Frequently asked questions
Which motherboards does it work with?
AM5 boards with B650, B850, X670 or X870 chipsets and DDR5 memory. Older boards may need a BIOS update first.
Is a cooler included?
No. This is the tray version, so you will need a 240-280mm liquid cooler or a strong air cooler.
Can I overclock it?
Yes. It is the first X3D processor that can be overclocked through PBO, helped by placing the 3D V-Cache beneath the cores for better heat transfer.
