AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D Gaming CPU Restocked At Amazon And Best Buy
AMD's popular new Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU is back in stock at Amazon and Best Buy. Released in November, the 9800X3D has earned widespread praise and has been called the best gaming CPU on the market by many reviewers. Unsurprisingly, the high-performing processor has been challenging to find in stock.

The Ryzen 7 9800X3D is one of the newest in the burgeoning line of 3D V-Cache CPUs, with each one proving to be an essential part of an enthusiast-gaming PC. It was the first to feature AMD's 2nd-generation 3D V-Cache technology, with AMD saying that the 9800X3D is, on average, 8% faster than the previous generation's 7800X3D, which itself was widely viewed as the best CPU on the market for gaming.
The 9800X3D has a base clock speed of 4.7GHz, with a boost to 5.2GHz and a TDP of 120W.
