The short answer

In a typical one of 8 popular games at 1080p High with an RTX 5090, the Ryzen 7 5700X3D gets about 153 FPS and the Ryzen 7 5800X3D about 164 FPS. With a slower graphics card, or at 1440p and 4K, the card sets the FPS more often and the gap gets smaller.

Both use the AM4 socket. Both take DDR4 memory. Cores and threads: 8 / 16 on the Ryzen 7 5700X3D, 8 / 16 on the Ryzen 7 5800X3D. Neither comes with a cooler, so budget for one.

Ryzen 7 5700X3D vs Ryzen 7 5800X3D: FPS in popular games

Estimated FPS at 1080p High with 32 GB RAM (Ryzen 7 5700X3D / Ryzen 7 5800X3D in each column). With an RTX 5090, the processor sets the frame rate wherever it can. Values above 500 show as 500+. See FPS for your own PC.

Game	RTX 5090	RTX 5060
Counter-Strike 2	351 / 375	305 / 305
Valorant	386 / 413	386 / 413
