**AMD 5700 X3D Owners CLub**

Right, i have the same chip, i don't see the point really but reading peoples experience with switching to an X3D from a none X3D Ryzen 5000 IS making me revaluate that.
i know it will help quite a bit in Star Citizen and it would be cheap to do, i also don't fancy the cost of upgrading the whole platform for a while yet if i can help it.
I think it would have to be a 5800X3D, you can find them on the used market given they are no longer available new, i'm ok with a used CPU, not snobby about that.... and again if its a cheap upgrade.......nnnaaarrrr maybe.

The only reason I'd consider is because I can't set any PBO offset on my 5800X - the system becomes instantly unstable - but I'm under a full WC loop so the temps don't bother me too much
 
That’s the first time I’ve heard anyone say their X3D chip can’t hit -30 on all cores.

Also I don’t have the options in my Gigabyte BIOS, and the Windows tool works perfectly https://github.com/PrimeO7/How-to-undervolt-AMD-RYZEN-5800X3D-Guide-with-PBO2-Tuner
I think people are more likely to report winning the silicon lottery than otherwise.

Yeah, great if it works for you. That's the tool I've heard of. Can you get it to run and apply the settings on startup?
 
I'm guessing it's not really worth upgrading from a 5700X to this? (Gaming at 3440 x 1440p), with a 7800XT.
I recently upgraded from a 5700X to a 5700X3D and can't say I've noticed much difference at 1400p. Some games benefit more than others though. It did mean that the 5700X went into my son's PC upgrading from a Ryzen 1600, so a bigger difference for him.
 
Installed one of these a few days ago, up from a 3700X. Saw decent improvements in cinebench R23. Also PBO2 works well for me -30. Core runs a lot cooler and max power is 87W and all cores report running at 4050Mhz. during cinebench.

4050Mhz is low.

All core should be around 4400Mhz.

I have -15 on mine and it boosts to 4450Mhz which is the max it can go.

As always - it entirely depends on the games & scenes. F.ex. (see below) KCD it goes from 81 avg to 111 avg. That's bloomin' massive! And there's going to be more examples like this, it's just that reviewers don't tend to benchmark them because they're not automated or are older or are niche etc.

 
Aso bear in mind some games will be slower, those that favour clock speed as the 5700X has a 500mhz faster clock, so best to check the games you want it for.

Is 4050Mhz what I should expect when running cinebench with the 5700X3D PBO'ed to -30 ?. That's what all the cores consistently sit at for the duration.

On some other (non bench)tasks I see a core or 2 occasionally reporting 4150Mhz.

In terms of temps the max temp I see on cinebench is 66c
 
All core boost is about that yes. Single core is about 4150mhz
Mine hits 4090/4191 as I've a slight bump on the BCLK which is the only way to really get any higher
