"PC gamers know that the hunt for the best processors for their rigs usually boils down to speed and cores, and they also know an unlocked processor can be pushed beyond its factory-set limits for maximum performance. A sneaky-good unlocked gaming processor just hit Amazon's sale shelf - the AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT, an unlocked chip ready to be overclocked, is just $183 after a 27% price drop."
"The next-gen chips bring fatter spec sheets and sexier reviews, but the 5800XT's 8 cores and 16 threads built on AMD's proven-winner Zen 3 platform brings a base clock speed of 3.8GHz which can be boosted all the way to 4.8GHz. It's loaded with 32MB of L3 cache and 4MB of L2, with PCIe 4.0 support, DDR4-3200 memory compatibility, and - very important for a chip that's going to get a ton of overclocking - AMD's Wraith Prism cooler to prevent heat-related failure."
The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT is an unlocked eight-core, sixteen-thread processor based on Zen 3 with a 3.8GHz base clock and up to 4.8GHz boost. It includes 32MB L3 and 4MB L2 cache, PCIe 4.0 support, and DDR4-3200 compatibility. The processor ships with AMD's Wraith Prism cooler to aid overclocking thermal management. At $183 after a 27% discount, it presents strong midrange value that can extend the life of older PCs or serve as a capable centerpiece for a new build. The 5800XT delivers gaming-level performance alongside high data-access speeds suitable for broader workloads.
