The Ryzen 7 3800X is based upon an identical framework to the Ryzen 7 3700X, sporting an 8-core, 16-thread layout and 32MB of cache, only with the TDP dialled right up to 105W, a huge 40W increase on the 3700X. With that comes a hefty base clock increase from 3.6GHz to 3.9GHz and a Boost clock increase of 100MHz to 4.5GHz when conditions are perfect.
