AMD Ryzen 7 5700 vs AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D: Comparison

Ryzen 7 5700 vs Ryzen 7 5700X3D: the l3 cache difference

The gap that matters here is l3 cache: Ryzen 7 5700 16 MB against Ryzen 7 5700X3D 96 MB, which puts Ryzen 7 5700X3D 83% ahead. Measured rather than claimed: in Blender Cycles (CPU) the Ryzen 7 5700 returns 188 against 187 over 16 runs, a 1% lead. Product line is not the same on both, Ryzen on the Ryzen 7 5700 versus Ryzen 7 on the Ryzen 7 5700X3D. They differ on unlocked multiplier too, Yes on the Ryzen 7 5700 versus No on the Ryzen 7 5700X3D. There is a split on base power as well, 65 W on the Ryzen 7 5700 versus 105 W on the Ryzen 7 5700X3D. Memory type is not the same on both, DDR4, 2-Channel, Up to 3200 MT/s on the Ryzen 7 5700 versus DDR4 on the Ryzen 7 5700X3D. There is a split on pcie generation as well, PCIe 3.0 on the Ryzen 7 5700 versus PCIe 4.0 on the Ryzen 7 5700X3D.

Which should you buy, Ryzen 7 5700 or Ryzen 7 5700X3D?

The Ryzen 7 5700 suits mainstream desktop builds and everyday productivity, though it is the wrong buy for extreme overclocking (unless K/X-series) and workstation-class multi-threaded workloads. Buy the Ryzen 7 5700X3D for mainstream desktop builds and everyday productivity, though it is not built for extreme overclocking (unless K/X-series) and workstation-class multi-threaded workloads.

Where the two are identical

The common ground is wider than the gap: total cores, performance cores, efficiency cores, total threads and integrated graphics are identical here. They match on 13 further specifications as well.

Frequently asked questions

Do the Ryzen 7 5700 and Ryzen 7 5700X3D differ on p-core boost clock?

Yes. P-Core Boost Clock reads 4.6 GHz on the Ryzen 7 5700 versus 4.1 GHz on the Ryzen 7 5700X3D.

Is the Socket the same on the Ryzen 7 5700 and Ryzen 7 5700X3D?

It is. Both are listed at AM4, so it is not a reason to pick one over the other.
