AMD’s Ryzen 7000X3D processors are designed and marketed for gamers. While the Ryzen 9 7900X3D\/7950X3D may appeal to content creators, the 7800X3D is squarely meant for PC gamers. A while back, we tested the 7950X3D, comparing it to the Core i9-13900K. The result was pretty much a tie. In this one, we’ll test the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, comparing its performance to the 13900K, with and without ray-tracing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Core i9-13900K marks its first win in “A Plague Tale: Requiem”. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D isn’t far behind with an average delta of just 5%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Looking at the frametime data, you can see that the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has fewer spikes, resulting in a smoother gameplay experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Assassins’ Creed Valhalla is the opposite, granting the Ryzen 7 7800X3D a slim lead with notably higher lows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All recent Assassin’s Creed games exhibit the following stuttery behavior on even the fastest CPUs. And it’s still not fixed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cyberpunk 2077 has gone from the worst-optimized to the most-optimized title within a year. The Core i9-13900K is the clear winner here with a lead of 20%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The frametime data indicates a bit of stuttering on the Ryzen side towards the end of the benchmark. The 13900K has similar but smaller spikes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dying Light 2 is a tie between the two processors. However, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D registers notably higher lows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The frametime graph produces an extremely clean line for the 7800X3D with spikes that reflect the change in the scene. <\/p>\n\n\n\n F1 2022 favors the Ryzen 7 7800X3D with a paltry 6% lead over the 13900K. The latter also exhibits a fair bit of stuttering through the course of the benchmark. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The worse lows on the Core i9 are represented by the periodic spikes on the frametime data below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ghostwire Tokyo marks another win for AMD. However, the Core i9-13900K offers a smoother experience in comparison. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Both the CPUs face slight micro-stuttering, but the 7800X3D is more affected by it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hitman 3 is a big win for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, with a lead of 75% on average. Even the frametime graphs look much better for the X3D while the Core i9-13900K produces a bit of a mess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hogwarts Legacy is another game that runs exceptionally well on the 7800X3D. We’re again looking at a 70%+ lead with notably smoother frametimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The frametime graph of the 7800X3D is interesting. It looks almost like there’s almost a cap keeping the frametimes limited to 5ms. In comparison, the 13900K faces a fair number of spikes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Shadow of the Tomb Raider goes the V-Cache way, with a 49% lead over the Core i9-13900K. The lows don’t look any good either for the Core i9 either. <\/p>\n\n\n\n However, a look at the frametime graph reveals more consistent frame-pacing for the Intel part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Callisto Protocol is an AMD partner title, and yet the Core i9-13900K manages a strong win with similar lows. The frametime graphs of the two CPUs are almost identical. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is the final rasterized benchmark, and it also runs better on the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. The 13900K is a bit over 10% slower than the Ryzen with notably worse lows and a messy frametime graph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Overall, that’s seven wins for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D<\/strong> and four for the Core i9-13900K in rasterization. Onto ray-tracing now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Intel Core i9-13900K starts off strong with two consecutive wins in ray-tracing. In Plague, the lows are nearly identical on the two CPUs with a cleaner frametime graph for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Crysis Remastered favors the 13900K with similar lows on the two processors. Both chips faced one steep spike while the rest of the test went smoothly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cyberpunk 2077 also goes Intel’s way with a subtle but consistent lead that stretches to the lows. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The 7800X3D runs well for the most part but is undone by a stutter patch in the last section of the benchmark. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dying Light 2 is the first win for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D in ray-tracing, and it’s a big one. The averages and lows are both significantly higher on the X3D.<\/p>\n\n\n\n F1 2022 behaves the same as it did with rasterization. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is slightly faster with similar 1% lows. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The frametime graph reveals the spikes responsible for the Intel Core i9-13900K’s loss. The 7800X3D has a significantly cleaner graph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ghostwire Tokyo is the third consecutive ray-traced title to favor the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. It is 57% faster on the X3D CPU with comparable lows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The two CPUs produce nearly identical graphs, barring one over-the-top spike for the Core i9-13900K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hitman is the fourth consecutive ray-traced title to favor the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. It is 37% faster than the Core i9-13900K on average with similar lows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hogwarts Legacy is a slim victory for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D with notably higher lows. The Core i9-13900K faces a bit of trouble in the second half of the benchmark that cost it this title. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Metro Exodus stutters like crazy on Ryzen processors. Yet, the averages aren’t that far apart. This one goes to the Core i9-13900K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the Extreme Quality preset, ray-tracing is a death sentence for the 7800X3D.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shadow of the Tomb Raider is a decisive win for the 7800X3D. It holds a commanding 51% lead over the Core i9-13900K. The frametime graphs are quite similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And at last, “The Callisto Protocol” is the concluding title in the ray-tracing test suite. Once again, despite being an AMD partner title, the Core i9-13900K wins. Barring a few spikes, the frametime reveals smoother frame pacing for the latter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And that’s five wins for the Core i9-13900K and six for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. Pretty much a tie.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" AMD’s Ryzen 7000X3D processors are designed and marketed for gamers.
