AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D review


The Digital Foundry CPU review of the Intel AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, with the test rig, content creation benchmarks and much more.

That means we get that game-changing performance advantage without the hit to temperatures and clock speeds that previously characterised X3D processors versus their vanilla counterparts; the best of both worlds. To properly get to grips with the level of performance on offer, we've run the 9950X3D through our full gamut of 11 game benchmarks at 1080p, 1440p and 4K, including some of the most demanding single-player ( Dragon's Dogma, Starfield, Cyberpunk) and multiplayer ( CS2, F1 24) releases. | Image credit: Digital Foundry All testing was performed on Windows 24H2 with the latest chipset drivers (7.01.07.634) and BIOS updates installed (3.20 on our ASRock X670E Taichi).
