AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D will be available soon to meet consumers. This is the first and so far the only consumer processor with 3D Vertical Cache (3D V-Cache) technology, bringing an additional 64MB of 7nm SRAM cache to the CCD, which makes the L3 cache capacity of this Zen 3 architecture processor increase from 32MB to 96MB, and the capacity has tripled.
However, this product using 3D V-Cache technology does not seem to be ready for overclocking. It has been reported on the Internet that the Ryzen 7 5800X3D does not support overclocking. It is said that this is AMD’s request to motherboard manufacturers to cancel overclocking support for Ryzen 7 5800X3D in UEFI/BIOS. Then AMD technical marketing director Robert Hallock said in an interview with the media that the Ryzen 7 5800X3D does not support overclocking in the traditional sense, there will be a lock that restricts overclocking, and users cannot adjust the frequency or voltage.
Recently, Twitter user
@skatterbencher posted screenshots of CPU-Z, claiming that they have bypassed AMD’s restrictions and increased the clock of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D to 4.82 GHz, which corresponds to an FSB of 105.99 MHz, a multiplier of 45.5, and a core voltage of 1.306 V. It uses the ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Extreme motherboard, which is achieved by turning on ASUS’ Voltage Suspension technology.
When the Ryzen 7 5800X3D clock is increased, it is obvious that users will get stronger performance, but it is not clear what effect overclocking will have on the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, and the corresponding temperature and power.
The Ryzen 7 5800X3D using the Vermeer-X core has 8 cores and 16 threads, with a base clock of 3.4 GHz and a boost clock of 4.5 GHz, which are 400 MHz and 200 MHz lower than the Ryzen 7 5800X, respectively. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D will be available on April 20, priced at $449.
