The best AMD processors for 2024
- The Ryzen 9 7950X is currently the best AMD CPU for its 16 cores, impressive performance in gaming and productivity, and relative efficiency compared to the Intel competition.
- The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is the best AMD processor for gaming because of its additional 64MB of L3 cache stack, making it compete with 14900K that has three times its cores.
- The Ryzen 5 7600 is a great value-for-money processor for PC gaming targeting the mainstream with six cores and 12 threads.
- The Ryzen 5 8600G has the most powerful integrated graphics of any desktop CPU, making it ideal for casual gamers who don't want to invest in a dedicated graphics card.
- The Ryzen 5 5700X3D is the best last-gen CPU with comparable gaming performance to the 5800X3D, at a more affordable price.
- Most AMD CPUs come without an integrated GPU, so it's important to know that while the newest Ryzen 7000 CPUs do have onboard GPUs, most of the other AMD chips do not.
- For the latest Ryzen 7000 processors, you need a 600-series motherboard, while older processors can get away with 500, 400, and 300 series motherboards with a BIOS update.
- Choosing the right CPU requires researching and reading reviews of the devices while keeping budget, performance, and productivity needs in mind.
- AMD processors offer better gaming performance at lower power draws while Intel chips are better at productivity workloads with their more cores.
- When buying AMD processors, budget accordingly for cooling and power consumption as Intel's top chips alone can pull over 250W.
