AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D has hit end-of-life, according to a ComputerBase.de report. Introducing the new 3D V-cache technology, the 5800X3D breathed life back into the Socket AM4 platform as Intel debuted its 12th Gen Core "Alder Lake" processors, while there was still some time to go before AMD could mount up a defense with Ryzen 7000 "Zen 4." AMD figured out a way to augment the 32 MB on-die L3 cache with an additional 64 MB stacked cache that appears as a contiguous 96 MB addressable block to software. Having such a large fast cache next to the CPU cores greatly enhances performance in gaming workloads.

The 5800X3D was able to match the gaming performance of Intel's flagship Core i9-12900K despite being based on the generationally older "Zen 3" microarchitecture, and being restricted with older DDR4 memory. It would go on to be an incredible upgrade option for those still on the Socket AM4 platform, giving them performance in league with Intel's 12th- and 13th Gen processors. As of this writing, US retailer Newegg no longer has the 5800X3D in stock. Amazon has it, and so do some of the smaller retailers. Across the pond, the chip is vanishing from European retailers. In the absence of the 5800X3D, users still have the option of the Ryzen 7 5700X3D and the 6-core 5600X3D, which were both launched in the last year.

...Otherwise known as "processor made for Factorio/Prime95/any otherwise bandwidth-bound workload with a working set sized between 32MB and 96MB".

The king is dead, long live the king. :p
 
Now AMD, it's time for the 16 cores single CCU CPU! (with 3d cache obviously)
 
Bought my 5800X3D Christmas last year and it will last me 5yrs (and beyond) until I start looking at a new CPU/Socket upgrade for my main gaming PC.

Guess im glad I bought it when I did, but maybe in the short term the prices might go up a little? on the used market?
 
5800X3D will go into history as one of the best processors ever released, alongside the likes of 2600k and Athlon 64
 
Meanwhile 7800X3D prices reach all time high, €440 at mindfactory.

Which is baffling. Why hang onto what would soon be old stocks?

Or is this some sort of reverse psychology thing, in that anyone willing to buy one now must be willing to pay that price? Weird.

9000 series is a disappointment, 14th gen Intel is risky so people are jumping for what's still the best. MSRP hasn't changed, it's just retailers profiting from demand.
 
Oh Danny boy, the pipes. The pipes are calling...
 
Rest in piece, the first of it's kind, the savior of gsaming energy bills.
An experiment which not meant to be released (at first).

The 5800X3D has, and still is serving me well - will wait till the 9800X3D is getting reviewed, before moving on to AM5/DDR5 platform

As a 5800X3D user myself, playing on a 49" 1440p Ultrawide(G9)(not quite 4k, but close) I plan on skipping AM5 entirely. From the looks of it, I'll GPU bound the majority of time even if I upgrade to a 5080 in the future.
 
Looks like 5700X3D took its place, they perform almost identically and cost just over 220EUR (including VAT) at their cheapest here.
 
My 5800X3D has been serving me well. Don't game much any more, but it hasn't disappointed. No rush to upgrade
 
EoL yet to build an affordable AMD PC you still gotta build on AM4. I know there are other non EoL AM4 CPUs but EoL is coming for all of them. I'm still running my 5800X and I just built a 5800X system for a customer. Building an equivalent AM5 system would have cost him quite a bit more. Oh and both of them are not 3D cache models.
 
I still need a 5700X3D before its EOL. The X3D line was just epic for AM4.
 
The 7800X3D is already quite faster than the 5800X3D. If the 9800X3D brings another 10-15%, the move to AM5 will be justifiable.

Same story between the 5800X and 5800 oem, 5800 oem was rebadged as a 5700X, perform the same, just go by price between the 2.

It depends on what GPU you have,what resolution you play at, and the games you play. For a 4080 OC, it might be worth it, although you are going to upgrade the mobo and RAM as well.

I have a 6700XT at 1440p and none of my games are CPU-limited, the 5800X3D is plenty for me for the next 4 years, even with a mid-tier GPU upgrade in the next few years.
 
5800x3d and 2600k will be legends
 
Where I live, about 5 weeks ago these CPU's just disappeared from 60+ retailers, they came back a week later costing 40% more, now they cost 50% more, so now I understand why, and regret not picking a 5800X3D up for a cheap secondary gaming system.

I don't like what AMD has become. These CPU's are still selling well, as are AM4 motherboards, but the prices are all going up. AM5 boards are crazy high priced, so platform upgrades are not really a thing for many existing AM4 owners, and AM5 is a shhhh show, at least for investing in right now. You can get 20-25% more performance, for the price of about €1100. It's just not worth it.

Maybe Zen 6 might be more enticing, but if it's the last of the AM5 CPU's then again, it's not worth it. I hope AM6 brings some meaningful upgrades and lowers the prices of mid-to-high end MB's, and offers fast DDR5 support, and not stick with grandma's DDR5 6000.

You going to bash intel for countless socket changes?

That is the retailers fault, not the dev/manufacturer, stop blaming a company for discontinuing ddr4 platform when ddr5 is in full swing.

When parts are limited supply after being discontinued the gouging by retailers begins. I still see bnib pc parts from 10+ years ago still having a $350+ tag.
 
I'm glad I picked mine up when I did.

Have you looked at the 5700X3D? Cheaper prices, not much less performance. It looks like a good end-life upgrade for AM4 boards.

I share your dread about AM6 pricing although pricing in general is not as bad in the US vs other countries.
