Ryzen 5800X3D 10th Anniversary Edition may help you avoid paying for a new PC
Summary
Ars Technica reports on a rumored re-release of AMD's Ryzen 7 5800X3D as a 10th Anniversary Edition for budget builders. The processor adds 64MB of extra L3 cache (for a total of 96MB) and improves workloads that benefit from caching, particularly many games. It is designed for Socket AM4 and DDR4 RAM, with limited overclocking and slightly lower base and boost clocks than the non-X3D variant. Pricing rumors suggested around $310 USD in India, with used units circulating for $450–$500, though no official price has been announced. AMD has kept AM4 around for the budget market, and the timing for a formal launch remains unclear.
