AMD Ryzen 7 1800X

The AMD Ryzen 7 1800X packs 8 cores and 16 threads. It drops into the AM4 socket with a 95W TDP — about 11.9W per core. Clocks span 3.6GHz base to 4GHz boost. 16MB of L3 cache helps in cache-sensitive games and workloads. Board socket comes first when pairing parts — after that, make sure your cooler's rating covers the chip.

Its $299.99 price tag places it squarely in mid-range territory. PlanMyPC's builder flags compatibility problems automatically and tracks the latest processor deals from multiple stores. Warranty coverage follows AMD's standard policy — confirm regional terms on the listing. The full specification sheet below breaks out every listed detail, and the compatibility checker flags conflicts with parts already in your build.
