A new report claims that the Ryzen 7 5700X3D is now end-of-life. Reportedly, the gaming-focused CPU, which was released early in 2024, is no longer being shipped to retailers – according to Dutch publication Tweakers. It claims that several online stores have confirmed the news. The 5700X3D slowly replaced the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, which was the very first X3D processor.
AMD’s Ryzen X3D processors have been a massive hit; the company even said it was “blown away” by the demand earlier this year following the launch of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D. For PC gamers, they have become the go-to option for performance boosts and less stuttering in CPU-intensive games. A recent poll we ran also suggests that most of them want to upgrade to X3D, or already have one of these chips in their machine.
Ryzen 7 5700X3D reportedly reaches end of life
Based on the report, the halt of production could spell the end of AM4-based Ryzen X3D processors, but they’ve had a good run. The 8-core 5800X3D was an immediate success, as were its successors in the 7000 & 9000 series. We still see the two newer options topping CPU sales reports. The limited release (U.S only) 6-core Ryzen 5 5600X3D also proved to be a hit at Micro Center.
AMD has supported AM4 for an extraordinarily long time. This platform first launched in 2016 and went on to support five generations of CPUs before moving on to AM5, and AMD wishes to keep socket longevity a key goal. The most recent AM4 processor is the Ryzen 5 5500X3D, though it is exclusive to Latin America, so end-of-life for the 5700XD is a notable milestone for the rest of the world.
