Final word
Best tools to stress test your PC: When you’ve just dropped a substantial amount of money on a brand-new gaming PC, you should always make sure it’s working as intended. A PC stress test can help you achieve this. In this article, we will be covering RAM and CPU stress test tools to push your components to the maximum, while testing component stability in the process.
Stress testing isn’t just for new systems however, stress testing is a valuable tool for older systems to ensure everything is running smoothly and performing as it should. Stressing your system can be especially useful to test overclock stability on newly overclocked components, and to make sure older parts remain fully functional.
In this guide, we are going to outline the best RAM and CPU stress tests to perform along with where to download them online. We will also be including some hardware monitoring tools, to allow you to keep track of your system and how it’s performing.
Please note that we do not cover the GPU in this article, if you’d like to know more about GPU overclocking then please visit our ‘how to stress test your GPU’ page.

All of our benchmark results can also be found in our benchmark engine, Bench.
Agisoft Photoscan 1.3.3: link
The concept of Photoscan is about translating many 2D images into a 3D model — so the more detailed the images, and the more you have, the better the final 3D model in both spatial accuracy and texturing accuracy. The algorithm has four stages, with some parts of the stages being single-threaded and others multi-threaded, along with some cache/memory dependency in there as well. For some of the more variable threaded workload, features such as Speed Shift and XFR will be able to take advantage of CPU stalls or downtime, giving sizeable speedups on newer microarchitectures.
NAMD 2.13 (ApoA1): Molecular Dynamics
One of the popular science fields is modeling the dynamics of proteins. By looking at how the energy of active sites within a large protein structure over time, scientists behind the research can calculate required activation energies for potential interactions. This becomes very important in drug discovery. Molecular dynamics also plays a large role in protein folding, and in understanding what happens when proteins misfold, and what can be done to prevent it. NAMD, or Nanoscale Molecular Dynamics, has already been used in extensive Coronavirus research on the Frontier supercomputer. Typical simulations using the package are measured in how many nanoseconds per day can be calculated with the given hardware, and the ApoA1 protein (92,224 atoms) has been the standard model for molecular dynamics simulation.
Blender 2.83 LTS: Link
One of the popular tools for rendering is Blender, with it being a public open source project that anyone in the animation industry can get involved in. This extends to conferences, use in films and VR, with a dedicated Blender Institute, and everything you might expect from a professional software package (except perhaps a professional grade support package). With it being open-source, studios can customize it in as many ways as they need to get the results they require. It ends up being a big optimization target for both Intel and AMD in this regard.
Corona 1.3: Link
Corona is billed as a popular high-performance photorealistic rendering engine for 3ds Max, with development for Cinema 4D support as well. In order to promote the software, the developers produced a downloadable benchmark on the 1.3 version of the software, with a ray-traced scene involving a military vehicle and a lot of foliage.
POV-Ray 3.7.1: Link
A long time benchmark staple, POV-Ray is another rendering program that is well known to load up every single thread in a system, regardless of cache and memory levels. After a long period of POV-Ray 3.7 being the latest official release, when AMD launched Ryzen the POV-Ray codebase suddenly saw a range of activity from both AMD and Intel, knowing that the software (with the built-in benchmark) would be an optimization tool for the hardware.
V-Ray: Link
We have a couple of renderers and ray tracers in our suite already, however V-Ray’s benchmark came through for a requested benchmark enough for us to roll it in. Built by ChaosGroup, V-Ray is a 3D rendering package compatible with a number of popular commercial imaging applications, such as 3ds Max, Maya, Undreal, Cinema 4D, and Blender.
HandBrake 1.32: Link
Handbrake is a favored tool for transcoding, with the later versions using copious amounts of newer APIs to take advantage of co-processors, like GPUs. It is available on Windows via an interface or can be accessed through the command-line, with the latter making our testing easier, with a redirection operator for the console output. We take the compiled version of this 16-minute YouTube video about Russian CPUs at 1080p30 h364 and convert into a 480p30 ‘Discord’ format.
7-Zip 1900: Link
The first compression benchmark tool we use is the open-source 7-zip, which typically offers good scaling across multiple cores. 7-zip is the compression tool most cited by readers as one they would rather see benchmarks on, and the program includes a built-in benchmark tool for both compression and decompression.
AES Encoding
Algorithms using AES coding have spread far and wide as a ubiquitous tool for encryption. Again, this is another CPU limited test, and modern CPUs have special AES pathways to accelerate their performance. We often see scaling in both frequency and cores with this benchmark. We use the latest version of TrueCrypt and run its benchmark mode over 1GB of in-DRAM data. Results shown are the GB/s average of encryption and decryption.
WinRAR 5.90: Link
For the 2020 test suite, we move to the latest version of WinRAR in our compression test. WinRAR in some quarters is more user friendly that 7-Zip, hence its inclusion. Rather than use a benchmark mode as we did with 7-Zip, here we take a set of files representative of a generic stack – a micture mixture of compressible and incompressible formats
Mozilla Kraken 1.1
Kraken is a 2010 benchmark from Mozilla and does a series of JavaScript tests. These tests are a little more involved than previous tests, looking at artificial intelligence, audio manipulation, image manipulation, json parsing, and cryptographic functions. The benchmark starts with an initial download of data for the audio and imaging, and then runs through 10 times giving a timed result.
Google Octane 2.0
Our second web test is also JavaScript based, but uses a lot more variation of newer JS techniques, such as object-oriented programming, kernel simulation, object creation/destruction, garbage collection, array manipulations, compiler latency and code execution.
Speedometer 2: JavaScript Frameworks
Our newest web test is Speedometer 2, which is a test over a series of JavaScript frameworks to do three simple things: built a list, enable each item in the list, and remove the list. All the frameworks implement the same visual cues, but obviously apply them from different coding angles.

10-08-2022
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D is the world’s fastest gaming processor! Beats the 12-core Ryzen 9 5900X and the cool Intel Core i9-12900K! Uses 3D editing technology for the first time and equipped with 96 MB L3 cache — 3 times more than the «blue» competitor! All this is very … very loud statements by Lisa Su — the head of AMD!
But, who spoke of strong heat? And what will happen if you fight him with «undervolting». And what is the dependence of the novelty on memory and how does it look against Intel in reality? This will be a full exploration of the new Ryzen 7 5800X3D gaming processor!
What is «3D» in the name of the processor?
So, what is the difference between our good friend 8-core Ryzen 7 5800X, which received the prefix «3D»? Well, in short — this is the first «two-story processor»! The fact is that before this CPU did not grow up. Cores, cache, controllers — it was all one layer. AMD, on the other hand, has made a revolution — it has increased an additional floor to the main one. This addition turned out to be a 64 MB SRAM die.
Moreover, it is not connected crookedly on the bus or somehow with a significant decrease in throughput. No, those 64MB are literally dotted to the main 32MB L3 cache on the main die. Thus, AMD has a large 16-channel cache, which all 16 processor threads have access to. And it sounds so easy. AMD, together with TSMC, has done a titanic job to build an additional die … even without physically increasing the dimensions of the processor — it looks completely identical to the regular Ryzen 7 5800X. It has the same die height and cooling compatibility. In general, without exaggeration, AMD has made a revolution — this is the first step towards the mass introduction of multilayer processors. But since this is only the beginning of the journey, there are also nuances that we will show in comparison with competitors.
Who are we comparing the Ryzen 7 5800X3D to?
The new gaming processor was made based on the 8-core 16-thread AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, 2020 release. It operates at frequencies from 3.8 to 4.7 GHz. The L3 cache is also not small — 32 MB. Also supported is an interface for graphics cards version 4 and DDR4 memory with a guaranteed frequency of up to 3200 MHz. Prices, as usual, we will discuss at the end, against the backdrop of test results.
Now about the review hero Ryzen 7 5800X3D. It has the same configuration of cores and threads, but at a noticeably lower frequency — from 3.4 to 4.5 GHz. This is done to reduce heat generation. Of course, the «sandwich» of crystals is hotter. And the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D has overclocking blocked for the same reason. However, look at this beauty — unreal 96 MB cache in the third level.
Intel Core i7-12700K has 12 cores, but, as we remember, only 8 of them are high-performance, the remaining 4 are energy efficient. The latter do not parallel, so there are 16+4 threads in Hyper-Threading — or a total of 20. Yes, the blue ones also get out as best they can. This processor supports PCI Express up to version 5 and memory, both DDR4-3600 and DDR5-4800. But it’s official. We will take a faster kit with a frequency of 5600 MHz and compare turbo memory against turbo cache.
But first, let’s look at the components of the system, because in this test it is more important than ever to understand what worked and how.
System Components
We needed three motherboards for these tests. And one of them is for the Intel bundle with DDR5:
- Ryzen 7 5800X and Ryzen 7 5800X3D — ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming (Wi-Fi)
- Core i7-12700K + DDR4 — ASUS PRIME Z690-P D4
- Core i7-12700K + DDR5 — ASUS PRIME Z690-A
And, when we have already touched on the memory, we note that all Ryzen tests and half of the Intel tests passed with the «popular» PATRIOT VIPER Steel DDR4-3600 dies. In stock, they worked with timings of 18-22-22-42.
And the second set, just to confront the memory against the cache. Here Intel has already been transplanted into the second board and Kingston FURY Beast DDR5-5600 has been installed. Namely, 32 GB with two slats. Imagine, the next Ryzen will also support this.
Finally, the high point of Cooler Master MasterLiquid PL240 FLUX dropsy has come. This time, she will have to work on her conscience. It generates an airflow of 2 cubic meters per minute or 72 CFM. Plus, it boasts an increased area of \u200b\u200bthe copper base of the cool two-chamber pump.
On the other hand, the already well-known Palit GeForce RTX 3080 Ti GameRock OC video card warmed up the system and at the same time provided the maximum expansion of the framework from the GPU.
Regarding the disk system, stability was provided by the 1TB M.2 PCIe SSD PATRIOT P300. Games, benchmarks, everything was read very quickly and flew into faster memory — efficiency and caches of different levels.
There were no comments from the side of food either. The platinum Seasonic Prime PX-850 gave out stable equal voltage on all lines and sufficient power. In particular, up to 390 W for video cards and from 100 W for processors. And other components are not offended.
And here is the second processor cooling component that needs to be fixed in memory — the be quiet! PURE BASE 500DX Black. In addition to the fact that it is beautiful, roomy and generally charged, it is also well ventilated by three large complete turntables 140mm Pure Wings 2.
Plus, we improved this base with three be quiet! LIGHT WINGS 140mm PWM. See what great cooling conditions the processors were in? Go ahead.
Competitive comparison
First, let’s compare Ryzen 7 5800X3D turbo cache vs Core i7-12700K turbo RAM in workloads. Will this second floor give us anything outside of games?
And immediately the 3DMark Time Spy test. Even with the same DDR4 memory at 3600 MHz, the Core i7 overtakes the review hero by 47%, according to our main CPU Score indicator. And when switching to DDR5, blue looks 55% better. A comparison of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D with its brother showed no difference at all. The 3DMark test does not need an additional cache.
7-ZIP Benchmark throws the Ryzen processor a lifeline. With the same memory, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D was able to beat the competitor by 6% in archive packing speed. But with DDR5, blue is tearing everyone to pieces, increasing its advantage by 35% in this indicator. In unpacking, its lead is not so great — 6-8%
In CineBench R23C, Intel processors are again ahead of the new Ryzen. What is curious here is the frequency and type of RAM do not decide anything for blue. It is better by 32-64%, both with DDR4 and DDR5. Although Intel outperforms even a relative due to the higher frequency of cores — by 10-11%.
If we take the results of all the benchmarks we made, then for work tasks the Ryzen 7 5800X3D is the least suitable. It is 2.5% faster than the base Ryzen 7 5800X, 21% faster than the Core i7-12700K with DDR4-3600 memory, and 37% faster than the same processor with DDR5-5600.
In Cyberpunk, DLSS at maximum performance puts extra load on the CPU. So, are you ready to check out the fps boost from adding 64MB of L3 cache over the 5800X? Given that the frequency of the 3D novelty is 200-400 MHz lower?
There are 31% higher average and 45% very rare events! These are not AVX instructions for you!
So, yes, the chip really works — it gives a noticeable increase. True, the temperature of the new one is something not at all happy. But we will talk about this separately in due course.
In the meantime, let’s look at the progress compared to Intel: in terms of average frequency, the hero of the review is the best — by 25% bypasses Core i7 with DDR4 and by 18% — with DDR5. But Intel loses in terms of 0.1% Low — 8 and 10%, respectively.
When tracing is enabled, the balance of forces is preserved. On average, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D has the highest numbers on the counter. And for rare and very rare events — a better Core i7. And friends, pay attention to how the cache boosts AMD better than Intel RAM. In the reds, their chip gave a 27% acceleration to the 2020 processor, and 2000 MHz Intel RAM — only 11%.
On the contrary, the slightest increase came out in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla at ultra-settings and 50% render scale. Compared to the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, it is better only in the middle frequency — by 9%. And it also outperformed the Core i7 with DDR4 memory by 6% in very rare events and compared with a bunch of DDR5 in this indicator.
And now our CPU killer Total War Saga: Troy with maximum grass and army size. She literally smokes Ryzen 7 5800X3D — 90°C. There is a hot crystal sandwich. Nevertheless, we get 23-32% better performance than the younger brother, and 18-23% worse than the Core i7-12700K with DDR4 memory.
If you equip an Intel 8+4-core with DDR5 modules, it becomes an unattainable leader at a distance of 54-62%.
So, what does the average come out. According to the results of all gaming benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D outperforms the regular Ryzen 7 5800X by 20-25%. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla certainly likes a higher frequency, and all other games have accelerated very well.
In comparing the hero of the review with a bunch of Core i7-12700K + DDR4, we already have mixed success. Ryzen 7 5800X3D is 6% better in average fps, but loses a little in rare and very rare events.
The combination of the Intel processor with DDR5 can be called the «first» in quotation marks. Yes, we have a 7% to 24% advantage over the Ryzen 7 5800X3D. But here the scales were strongly tilted to the whole side of the Total War Saga: Troy benchmark. Now, if we selected benchmarks like Lisa Su…
And now let’s calculate the number of fps in terms of 0.1% low for all benchmarks:
- Core i7-12700K + DDR5 — 359 fps
- Core i7-12700K + DDR4 — 336 fps
- Ryzen 7 5800X3D — 323 fps
- Ryzen 7 5800X — 263 fps
The hero of the review takes an honorable third place with a noticeable advantage only over the domestic competitor. It seems that Lisa was a little hasty in this comparison. Although the data obtained will still have to be revised, taking into account the prices, both for the CPUs themselves and for the bundles of the motherboard and memory. And we will definitely do this after three stops with interesting information.
Overheating and undervolting Ryzen 7 5800X3D
Now let’s talk about something that may have annoyed you when comparing processors — namely, the temperature regime of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D.
Let’s go back to our favorite Total War Saga: Troy. Competitors have about 75°C, and the hero of the review has 90°C! And this is its critical temperature for a minute. And now let’s think about our cool case, six 140mm fans and a charged liquid cooling system. This is the case — a real silicone lottery. For example, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D is only a couple of degrees hotter than its younger brother, and we got a black mark out of the bag.
Can you imagine what will happen to him in an ordinary building, in a cave of an ordinary Ukrainian gamer? This is the fee for participation in the project «multilevel CPU — in every home!».
But what temperature we got when we started the stress test — more than 93 ° C, that is, above the critical maximum. There was no throttling.
It’s not for nothing that AMD banned this processor from overclocking. In this regard, we decided to explore the other side of this coin — undervolting, that is, reducing the CPU supply voltage. How many millivolts does it need to drop to get an acceptable temperature and how will this affect power?
We reduced the voltage in two stages — by 0.05 V and 0.1 V or minus 50 and 100 mV, respectively.
The first stage of the experiment had almost no effect on the temperature during the stress test — it is still in the red zone.
But in the gaming benchmark, this figure fell to the level of competitors — around 75 ° C. And, pleasantly, it had almost no effect on the final result.
Reset 100 mV cooled down the «3D skin» by 9°C in the stress test and another 2-3°C in the game.
Again, only a few percent of the productivity paid for this.
Therefore, we recommend future owners of this processor to use undervolting at least for the summer heat.
How is the Ryzen 7 5800X3D affected by RAM frequency?
Now let’s answer another important question. «And if I already have a Socket AM4 system with not the fastest memory, and the Ryzen 7 5800X3D gets into it, how is the maximum upgrade of this platform?» How will the speed change in games with 2400, 3200 and 3600 MHz memory? Will a large cache smooth out this kind of RAM slowdown?
Of course, the AIDA64 memory test depends more on the memory frequency, but it is not particularly representative when you need to estimate the real performance in real programs.
In turn, other benchmarks have enough L3 cache to avoid using slower RAM. Because with a frequency of 2400, which is with 3600 MHz — the difference is within the margin of error.
But there is almost no cache for games, because it is used for almost everything — weather cycle changes, vehicle physics calculation, NPC display, etc. And when there is enough cache, we see that the Ryzen 7 5800X3D keeps a high average frequency with all three memory values. And as soon as it overflows a little, it turns to slower RAM and sags by 24%. We get a very rare event, which against the background of 175 fps can be felt as a slight twitch.
If the graphics are Ultra-Ultra and with the addition of ray tracing, the focus shifts more towards the video card. The processor prepares fewer frames and the impact of the RAM frequency is minimized. In this case, 2400 MHz loses 5-10% to 3600 MHz.
Approximately the same picture with Total War Saga: Troy — 2-7% difference. In general, as you can see, the influence of the RAM frequency depends on many factors: somewhere around 24%, somewhere around 2-7%. Therefore, in order to always have maximum comfort with the 5800X3D on average, it is advisable to keep the frequency not lower than the recommended one, but preferably 3600 MHz.
Test in difficult games
And our usual gameplay test. Now let’s see how the Ryzen 7 5800X3D handles real heavy games — without undervolting and in FullHD. By the way, we will also pay attention to the temperature.
The first thing I want to launch is the long-suffering 128-player Battlefield 2042 mode. With ultra-graphics, but without ray tracing. Has this day really come, after a bunch of tests of retro processors and budget AMD CPUs, when the 0.1% low indicator has finally exceeded 60 fps!
God of War and ultra graphics in DX11. The video card is loaded to the brim — it consumes as much as 400 watts and heats up to 83 ° C. And the processor does not lag behind it in terms of temperature. It is not visible on the recording, but there were still small twitches in the gameplay.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and maximum graphics on the Vulkan API. The video card is loaded almost to the ceiling, and the processor is cooled both literally and figuratively. In the FPS line, you can see at least 60 fps, with an average of 98 fps.
In general, all the most difficult games are excellent. Here, the capabilities of the system are limited precisely by the graphics subsystem, even the RTX 3080 Ti does not pull!! In terms of temperatures, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D got a headroom of 10-15°C to a critical mark of 90°C, given that in many projects it was only 70-80% loaded.
Results
So, it’s time to look at the prices together and compare them with the capabilities of all test participants. It is clear that now they are not stable, but the gradation between the processors can still be determined.
Prices for processors with a boxed cooler. hotlines. End of July:
- Ryzen 7 5800X3D from UAH 15,169
- Core i7-12700K from 14 742 UAH
- Ryzen 7 5800X from 11 097 UAH
If we consider only the CPUs themselves, then the distribution is as follows. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D is even slightly more expensive than the Core i7-12700K.
Prices for motherboards. hotlines. End of July:
- LGA1700 under DDR5 | Core i7-12700K | from 6 770 UAH
- LGA1700 for DDR4 | Core i7-12700K | from 2 562 UAH
- Socket AM4 both Ryzen | from 1 568 UAH
Regarding motherboards. It is unlikely that anyone will look towards the most budget options for such processors, without heatsinks on the VRM. But again, we appreciate the trend. Here, whatever one may say, DDR5 support costs horse money.
CPU+MB+RAM communication prices. hotlines. End of July:
- Core i7-12700K | from 6770 UAH MB | + from 4 407 UAH RAM | = from 25 919 UAH
- Core i7-12700K |+ from UAH 2562 MB|+ from UAH 2145 RAM| = from 19 449 UAH
- Ryzen 7 5800X3D |+ from UAH 1568 MB | + from UAH 2 145 RAM | = from 18 882 UAH
- Ryzen 7 5800X |+ from UAH 1568 MB | + from UAH 2 145 RAM | = from 14 810 UAH
Therefore, we add the price of the most affordable DDR4-3600 and DDR5-4800 kits.
As a result, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D turned out to be 27% more expensive than its brother without the «3D» prefix. At the same time, it is a couple of percent weaker in synthetics, but 20-25% better in games. On the one hand, everything is fair — how much you paid extra, so much you got. But given the increased heating of the 3D-shki, it is more attractive, especially for a non-pure gaming PC, that the good old Ryzen 7 5800X looks like.
Compared to the Core i7-12700K+DDR4 bundle, the review hero is 3% cheaper. But he is 15% worse than her in work tasks and loses by 5-8% in drawdowns in games. Plus, Intel is a little colder, and support for the PCIe 5.0 interface may come in handy sometime. Therefore, in this case, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D flies by.
And finally, the Intel bundle with DDR5 memory is already at least 37% more expensive than the Ryzen 7 5800X3D. At the same time, the same 37% speed is provided in work tasks and from 7 to 24% in games.
Therefore, in our opinion, here you can either save a little and take the standard Ryzen 7 5800X or pay a little extra for the Core i7-12700K with DDR4.
Therefore, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D at the current price is more of a pioneer for geeks and enthusiasts, charting a new and bright path for AMD. Probably the future belongs to multilayer 3D processors. And it is they who improved the processor in 2020. And imagine this technology in service with the cooler 5nm Ryzen 7000? 16 cores, 32 threads, a hundred megabytes of L3 and DDR5 — we would look at this!
