Since AMD announced the Ryzen 7 5800X3D processor, expectations of what the company itself identifies as the fastest gaming chip have continued to grow. And this is understandable, because its specifications go unnoticed, both for the 4.5 gigahertz speed (which there are already those who dared to increase it), and for a hundred megabytes of L2 and L3 cache, this integrated main response of AMD to the eleventh generation of Intel Core in gaming.

AMD recently announced the dates and prices of its new chipsets, which we have already analyzed here and learned that the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D would hit the market on April 20 and its price would be $ 449. The price corresponds to its main rival, the Intel Core i7-12700K, but in a chip aimed at the gaming market, which seems to me to be quite an intelligent step for AMD, and according to the first data, it should work perfectly.
And that’s how we can read in Wccftech, all AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D units offered for sale in the US retail market were sold out in just 24 hourswhich is a clear sign of the first desktop processor’s interest in using 3D-Cache technology, which allows cache modules to be stacked vertically within a chip, maximizing cache capacity.


This is not all good news now. And that’s because, as you probably already imagined, a few hours after the retail market, what is affectionately called the secondary market, the first AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D pieces began to appear, and which is really nothing more than a classic and disgusting resale. Already the first “bids” raised its price from $ 449 to $ 599, and some were already visible poor the seller increases his price to $ 999. I do not want to enter the resale debate now, but I think we need the rays of death and we need them urgently.
Be that as it may, and AMD is expected to have the ability to bring more Ryzen 7 5800X3D to market in the short and medium term, there seems to be no doubt that both in design and marketing, AMD has made it an honor with this chipwhich shows that it is still able to wage a battle of extreme performance with Intel, and generates several more points of expectation with the next generation of chips that promise a lot and very good.
