AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D Gets Listed in Europe
Those that are waiting for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D are in luck as the April 6th launch is just around the corner, and although we knew that the US launch price is set at $449, AMD did not give out any details about the price in Europe. Thankfully, first listings have started to appear, showing it in some stores at €530. Earlier, Computerbase gave an estimated price of around €509, considering that other two SKUs, the Ryzen 9 7950X3D and the Ryzen 9 7900X3D, both are 13 percent more expensive in Europe.
As spotted earlier by Videocardz, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has appeared in Slovenia, listed at €530, which is pretty close to the estimated price. Another listing from Germany shows it listed at €607, which is a bit more expensive. This comes as a surprise considering that the tax in Slovenia is 22 percent, while in Germany it is set at 19 percent. Of course, some stores will try to add the early adopters tax as well, raising the price well above the MSRP, as the Ryzen 7 7800X3D could be quite popular.
The AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D is an 8-core/16-thread SKU, featuring a single CCD with 3D V-Cache, and does not feature an asymmetric chiplet design that the other two SKUs use. As detailed earlier by AMD, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D is up to 24 percent faster than the Intel Core i9-13900K, at least in some games picked out by AMD. It also ends up anywhere between 21 and 30 percent faster than the previous generation AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D.
Of course, we only have AMD's handpicked benchmarks and our own simulation of the performance with a single CCD disabled on the Ryzen 9 7950X3D, but luckily, the April 6th launch date is just around the corner.

(for the info)
The question is this the best gaming cpu out there?
Annoying we never got a more affordable 7600X3D (would have been plenty for gaming)
Annoying the X3D parts were intentionally delayed and should have been thrown in with the AM5 platform drop
Annoying the only game-worthy affordable X3D is the 7800X3D and its MSRipped at $450 (almost half a grand)
Annoying AF the EU has these listed 10%+ higher so im guessing the same applies to UK (me)
.... OH WELL, it seems AMD doesn't want everyone to quickly jump on AM5+X3D
5800X3D it is!!
:p
... if wouldn't be, i'd be disapointed.
It'll be more or less the best gaming CPU while much cheaper than the Intel alternative, don't want to pay early adopter prices then don't. The 5800x3d get's you most of the way there and is currently going for a killer 320€ around europe
And as for the price, I don't think it's much different than 3xxx from 2019

Anyhow those earlier mentioned annoyances still stand for me.X3D was the talk of the town even prior to AM5 revealing itself. I'm just saying it would have been nice had they opened the cake with the cake. But i get it, it's business as usual. Anyway i'm just venting... not looking to expand on the thread with pointless banter.
Avg tax in the US is only $35ish. $485 if msrp stays true.
Because i clearly remember 5800X3D being 550€ in my country at launch last year and since the 7800X3D carries the same base MSRP i fully expect 7800X3D to also cost 550€.
AMD made a mistake by keeping those CPUs for latter. Probably they where hoping to sell the non X3D CPUs at their original prices for many more months and just introduce the X3D parts to counter the next Intel line of CPUs. Doing so they done a huge damage to AM5 platform. If non X3D parts where available from the beginning, the platform cost would have been justified, at least for those seeking the absolute performance in games.Both prices are probably WITH VAT. Both the above prices are WITH VAT.
enjoy your crazy prices AMD and NVidia the good times are about to end. Somehow we went full circle and things are even worst then in the Intel monopoly times. Jesus!
