AMD's latest Ryzen 7 9850X3D processor has only recently been released, and after benchmarking, we can pronounce this CPU as the new title holder for the fastest CPU for gaming - but only marginally. The 9850X3D is almost identical to the 9800X3D, with both sporting 8 cores, but the difference comes with the slight power increase that bumps the boost clock potential up to 5.6GHz.

Kingston's Fury Beast RAM comes with RGB on the heat spreaders, and these 2x 16GB DDR5 6000MT/s sticks have a CAS latency of CL36 with timings of 36-44-44, and a voltage of 1.35V. Due to the uptick in AI data center build-outs and major manufacturers pulling out of the commercial consumer market, prices of some RAM kits have more than quadrupled over the last 4 months.

We recently reviewed the Ryzen 7 9850X3D and put AMD's latest processor through its paces on our games test suite. In testing, you can see that the 9850X3D outperforms its predecessor - the 9800X3D - overall, but not by a massive margin. The latest CPU is around $30 more than the previous 9800X3D, but if you want the fastest CPU for your system, then the 9850X3D is the pick.

You still need to source the rest of the components, such as the graphics card and motherboard etc. But the savings alone on the RAM mean that a new build isn't out of reach if you keep your eyes peeled for combo deals like this.
