AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D Review
Gaming – Average FPS
Our gaming benchmarks are the real world application of the results weâve seen on the preceding page. Civilization VI is all about how long it takes to calculate a complex turn. Far Cry 5 is a good all-rounder and Far Cry 6 has more modern technology pushing the pixels. Shadow of the Tomb Raider stretches every facet of your setup. Total Warhammer II has a complex battle scene for stern tests of the CPU as well as the GPU.
This is, of course, the USP of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D design. Two of our tests are quite CPU dependant (Total War and Civilization), two of them are Ubisoft games (say no more) and the oldest one – Shadow of the Tomb Raider – is the one that actually gives us a glimpse of the potential of the new 3D V-Cache potential.
20/04/22 – Clearly a retest has seen a big improvement in the results here, and the Ryzen 7 5800X3D now really shows the gaming focus we were expecting to find.
