It’s certainly not available on all boards, even B550 boards with BIOS’s released the the past 2 months.

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3D Cache Eight Core 4.5GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail - Go Go Go xD

Upgraded bios from a 2 year old one. Now PBO settings are available. Can you now do a +200mhz overclock like you can with non 3d chips? The setting is there.
10x scalar and -30 on all cores working fine, which isnt a surprise as I had the -30 tested previously using pbotuner.
edit:
dont try clock boost override, for some reason it locks it at 200mhz above base clock instead.

Did you up any voltages for 3800/1900IF? My unify 5800x3d does 3733/1866 at default voltages but I'm not sure which voltages to up to go higher...
No. Once I had put -30, it was pegging to the maximum anyway due to the thermal headroom. It might have made a difference if I could overclock it.
bit of discount on these atm, Im currently running a 5800x (decent overclock), would it be worth upgrading my AM4 one last time with one of these and selling on my old chip as I mostly game on my system?
anyone done similar? I know the 2 chips are very close in performance anyway, but if the difference is worth it I would upgrade now while its cheap

It’s the strongest gaming CPU on that platform, so mostly for gaming yes. IIRC you’re looking at between 10-20% more performance. Maybe a little more if you’re using an Nvidia card.
I made the switch some time ago. A bit better averge FPS at 1440P but 1% lows were much more consistent. It still has great performance compared to some of the 7xxx chips.

I went from 5700X to 5800X3D and noticed this right away, also the extra performance.
Thinking about skipping the 7000/9000 series and upgrading my GPU now, as being at 1080p I dont think I need a better CPU at the moment.
I would stick with what you have. Still an amazing CPU.This

I just sold my 5800X3D.
I worked out that cash coming back from the sale of my (AM4 CPU, mobo + RAM) can fund my new AM5 set up, so I am ready for the future 9800X3D CPU hehe. My AM5 set up cost me £420 (7600, Asus B650E-I and DDR5 6000). Worth thinking about because how much the 5800X3D is worth in the used market. The 7600 provided me with similar or tiny bit better gaming performance, I don't do any CPU intense tasks.

Can't blame you, it's a v good pairing.
The most interesting thing for me is how CPU bottlenecked the 4090 is
I wonder where the ceiling is in getting extra performance out of this card, because it looks like we're nowhere near it yet. Admittedly the average 4090 user is not playing at 1080p.
are ANY 4090 users playing at 1080p?The most interesting thing for me is how CPU bottlenecked the 4090 is

I wouldn't call a 12900K and older generation than the Ryzen 5800X3D, i would call them the same if not Zen 3 being older, the fact that the 5800X3D was launched late in the generation is a technicality, you're also paying more than 2 times as much to gain 7%.
DDR5 running at more than 2 times the speed of DDR4 is better, a 4080 is better than a 3080.
They are scraping the barrel with this.

Still crushing a 14900k with fast DDR5 at a fraction of the power. It's kind of embarrassing.
While it does sound silly using 1080p with a 4090 you have to remember if your running DLSS balanced at 4k then your only running slightly higher than 1080p so CPU performance can still be more important than it seems.are ANY 4090 users playing at 1080p?
