In terms of memory, it supports DDR5 RAM at 5,600 megatransactions per second (MTs) out of the box, but it’s easy to overclock with AMD EXPO, with 6,000 MTs being the best balance between performance and price. The processor also has 8 MB of L2 cache and 96 MB of L3 cache! Remember, this is the 2nd generation AMD 3D V-cache. Unlike the first generation, the 2nd generation AMD 3D V-cache is located below the CPU cores instead of above them. While this may not seem like a big deal, it means that the main source of heat, which is the Zen 5 cores, now directly interacts with the cooling solution. Since the 3D V-cache is not as temperature sensitive as the CPU cores, the latter can stay cooler and allow for higher clock speeds. This is why the Ryzen 7 9800X3D can have a 500 MHz higher base clock and 200 MHz higher boost clock than the previous Ryzen 7 7800X3D.

The processor uses the same AM5 socket as the Ryzen 7000 china telegram data series, so it works with a wide range of AM5 motherboards (A620, X670E, X670, B650E, B650, X870E, X870, B840, B850 chipsets). It supports PCIe 5.0 with 28 lanes (24 of which are available) for fast data transfer between major hardware components. It also offers multiple USB ports, including four USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports (10 Gbps) and one USB 2.0 port (480 Mbps).
