AMD has introduced two 8-core Ryzen CPUs at Computex 2026. One of the CPUs, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, is a re-release of a fan-favorite processor that kick-started AMD’s stand-out X3D gaming CPU lineup. The other chip is a brand-new Ryzen 7 7700X3D based on AMD’s Zen 4 architecture.

Computex 2026 is in full swing and AMD has announced two CPUs, a brand new Ryzen 7 7700X3D and a re-release of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D. Both CPUs carry AMD’s 3D V-Cache die and are meant for people who want the best gaming performance.

Ryzen 7 5800X3D 10th Anniversary Edition

AMD is celebrating 10 years of AM4 platform by re-releasing the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, which was the first-ever CPU with 3D V-Cache. It is impressive how long AMD has managed to keep the AM4 platform alive. Taking into account the current market conditions where DDR5 memory has gotten super expensive, it is a good move on the part of AMD to introduce the Ryzen 7 5800X3D once again.

With its 8x Zen 3 cores, 16 threads, 100 MB of L2 + L3 cache, and a boost clock of 4.5 GHz, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D is still a pretty capable gaming CPU. It essentially matches the gaming performance of the Ryzen 5 9600X, a modern 6-core processor based on the latest Zen 5 architecture.

However, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D 10th Anniversary Edition will cost $349 at full retail when it launches on June 25, 2026. AMD will also throw in a free Carbice Ice Pad thermal interface with every CPU.

In a vaccum, this price quite high when you can get an 18-core Core Ultra 5 250K Plus with the same gaming but massively better productivity performance for less than $230. But, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D starts to make sense when we consider that AM4 users can slot the Ryzen 7 5800X3D without having to buy a new motherboard and DDR5 memory.

AMD Ryzen 7 7700X3D

Alongside the $349 Ryzen 7 5800X3D, AMD has released a brand-new Zen 4 CPU, the Ryzen 7 7700X3D. The CPU looks like a lower-clocked Ryzen 7 7800X3D with 8x Zen 4 cores, 104 MB of total cache, and a boost clock of 4.5 GHz. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D has the same core count and cache size but can boost much higher to 5 GHz.

So, based on the performance of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, it is reasonable to expect the Ryzen 7 7700X3D to be a top-notch gaming CPU. For instance, it will be much faster than the Ryzen 7 5800X3D.

Finally, AMD has priced the Ryzen 7 7700X3D at $329 and the CPU will be available starting July 16. For reference, you can currently get the Ryzen 7 7800X3D on Amazon for $370.
