AMD Ryzen 7 7700X3D Now Available Exclusively at Newegg

The new chip arrives at a time when memory prices have climbed across the industry, driven largely by the demand for memory in AI computing, which has made it harder and more expensive to build or upgrade a gaming PC. The Ryzen 7 7700X3D is built to help with that: its large built-in cache means the CPU can start strong with just one stick of memory, giving PC builders a lower-cost way to get going now, with room to upgrade whenever they're ready.

"With the Ryzen 7 7700X3D, we’re bringing AMD 3D V-Cache gaming performance to more players,” said Travis Kirsch, Sr. Dir Client Product Management, AMD. “It gives gamers an accessible entry point into the AM5 platform, with the longevity and flexibility to upgrade for years to come.”

A gaming chip built for right now

The Ryzen 7 7700X3D has 8 cores and 16 threads, and runs at a 4.0 GHz base speed with a boost of up to 4.5 GHz. It's built on AMD's “Zen 4” architecture design and uses AMD 3D V-Cache™ technology, which stacks extra cache memory right on top of the chip. In plain terms, that means the processor keeps more of what a game needs close by, so it doesn't have to reach out to system memory as often to keep up. That's what allows it to run well even when a builder starts with just one memory stick instead of two.

Other key specs:

• 104MB of total on-chip cache
• Socket AM5, with support for AMD's long-term AM5 platform
• PCIe 5.0 support for current and future storage and graphics cards
• 120W TDP
• Suggested retail price of $329

A starter combo built around the memory crunch

To make the point directly, Newegg is offering a starter combo pairing the Ryzen 7 7700X3D with a single stick of DDR5 memory, at a lower upfront cost than a full two-stick memory kit. The second memory slot stays open, so builders can expand to a dual-channel setup later, once prices ease or their budget allows, without having to change any other part of the build.

The combo includes the Radeon™ RX 9070 GRE graphics card, a natural pairing for builders ready to add dedicated graphics from day one.

“Memory prices went up this year, and that’s made building a PC harder for a lot of people. The 7700X3D brings the same 3D V-Cache found on chips twice its price, and that cache is what lets our builders start with a single stick of memory. It’s a more cost-effective way to address an issue many of our customers are facing today,” said Jim Tseng, Vice President of Product Management at Newegg.

AMD Game On: live at the Newegg Gamer Zone

Newegg will mark the launch with AMD Game On July 17, a live event at the Newegg Gamer Zone with a group of content creators and media. The day includes hands-on builds featuring the new chip, a modded PC showcase, and a live 5v5 VALORANT match with gaming creators that will stream on twitch.tv/newegg. Highlights from the event will follow on Newegg’s social channels and News & Stories blog.

The Ryzen 7 7700X3D, the Radeon RX 9070, and the single-memory starter combo are available now here.
