The 3800xt has the highest single core and all core boost of the Ryzen 3000 line. Coming from a 3600x, the performance uplift was surprisingly noticeable in both benchmarks and day-to-day feel. Paired with a 32gbs of 3200 cl14 ram on an X470 board, this chip absolutely flies. The XT line is the highest binned set of dies of the Zen 2 family and thus capable of scaling higher than its x and n-x counterparts, especially under optimal cooling solutions. Under a standard 240mm aoi loop, the 3800xt is idling anywhere between 30-50c and peaking at 71c all-core full load. At stock clocks and voltage, two cores are reported boosting past 4.7ghz under single threaded workloads, while the rest of the cores are reaching 4.6ghz during mixed executions. Undervolting is also great on this cheap for those for eco cosncous. A 4.1ghz all core frequency was achievable with less than 1.2 volts with 4.45 achievable at just over 1.3 volts using software over locking methods. Stock, this chip is designed to reach 1.5 volts safely for very short periods of time. Overall, this is a great chip, especially had under $300. A sizable upgrade from all previous Zen and Zen+ and a respectable uplift from zen2 non-xt cpus. While it is outclassed by the he latest and greatest I the form of the 5800x, the 3800xt can be had for considerably less and is easier to cool all the while performing admirably in most builds.

I recently upgraded from a Ryzen 7 2700 to this Ryzen 7 3800xt and I'm happy with it. I'm seeing noticeably better desktop performance and slightly higher frame rates in my favorite games.

It's a great processor for the money. A real value.

Runs games really well and handbrake for encoding movies quickly! Runs a little hot and ended up going with a 120mm liquid cooling
