AMD Ryzen 9 7950X & Ryzen 7 7700X ‘Zen 4’ Review

When looking at a summary of 1080p gaming performance with Hitman 3 excluded, the new Ryzen 7000 series processors show a healthy improvement versus Ryzen 5000 in general. Of course, that’s excluding the special case of the 3D V-Cache-equipped Ryzen 7 5800X3D.

Intel’s 12^th Gen Core competitors are still tough for Ryzen 7000 to deal with, and they will often trade places in our chart.

It’s important to examine which games you are most interested in and how they perform on each CPU. As the Ryzen 7 5800X3D still tends to be the best gaming chip on a game-by-game basis, even if the data creating the relative performance chart doesn’t necessarily highlight that trend particularly clearly. This is mainly due to Far Cry 6 being such a performance hit for Zen 3 processors.
