AMD Ryzen 5 220 vs AMD Ryzen 7 7700X3D Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Ryzen 5 220 and Ryzen 7 7700X3D present a stark contrast in the database, but not in the way the core counts alone might suggest. The Ryzen 5 220 has an extensive benchmark record, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D has no recorded benchmark scores at all. This absence shapes the entire comparison.

The Ryzen 5 220 delivers a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 15,502 and a single-core score of 2,188. In Geekbench, it records 7,974 multi-core and 2,027 single-core. PassMark results include a multi-thread score of 18,582 and a single-thread score of 3,646. The data also shows 57,987 in integer math, 35,500 in floating point math, and 21,2739 in data compression. These figures place the Ryzen 5 220 at the 75th percentile of all CPUs in the database, with an average benchmark score of 22,289.

The Ryzen 7 7700X3D has zero recorded benchmarks and an average score of 0. Its percentile ranking sits at 50, but that figure reflects the absence of test data rather than measured performance. The nearest rivals list for the Ryzen 5 220 offers useful context. The Intel Core i7-10700K scores 22,230 on average, which is 0.3% behind the Ryzen 5 220. The Intel Core i5-13500H scores 22,468, putting it 0.8% ahead. The Intel Core i7-1270P scores 22,502, 0.9% ahead. The AMD Ryzen 5 3600X scores 21,992, 1.4% behind.

The Ryzen 5 220 slots cleanly between these established desktop and mobile parts. Its average score of 22,289 sits just above the Core i7-10700K and just below the Core i5-13500H. The margins are narrow, all within 1.4% either direction. This suggests the Ryzen 5 220 performs in a well-populated performance band, closely matching several previous-generation mid-range and upper-mid-range processors.

The Ryzen 7 7700X3D cannot be compared on the same terms. Without recorded scores, the database offers no direct measurement of its Cinebench, Geekbench, or PassMark performance. Any head-to-head walkthrough of wins must therefore acknowledge that only one side has measurable results. The Ryzen 5 220 wins every benchmark category by default, but that is a function of data availability rather than architectural superiority.

The Verdict

The data supports a straightforward conclusion. The Ryzen 5 220 is a fully measured processor with a complete benchmark profile. Its average score of 22,289 and 75th percentile ranking confirm it competes closely with parts like the Intel Core i7-10700K and Intel Core i5-13500H. The Ryzen 7 7700X3D, by contrast, has no benchmark scores in the database. Its 50th percentile ranking is based on zero measurements.

For users looking at measured performance, the Ryzen 5 220 is the only option with recorded results. It delivers competitive multi-threaded and single-threaded scores, as shown by its Cinebench R23 figures of 15,502 and 2,188 respectively. It also carries a 28 W TDP, which points to a low-power mobile design, and it is built for the AMD Socket FP8 platform.

The Ryzen 7 7700X3D targets a different market segment: desktop. It uses the AMD Socket AM5, has a 120 W TDP, and includes 96 MB of shared L3 cache. Its launch MSRP is $329. None of these attributes translate into measured performance figures in the database, so any claim about its speed would be unsupported by the recorded data.

The verdict from the database is unambiguous. The Ryzen 5 220 has a full suite of benchmark results and a percentile placement that reflects real testing. The Ryzen 7 7700X3D has no test data, making its performance unknown within this dataset. Users who require measured scores should select the Ryzen 5 220. Users who need a desktop part with a large cache and a specific socket may consider the Ryzen 7 7700X3D, but they should be aware that its benchmark performance is not recorded.

Specification Differences

The two processors differ across nearly every specification field in the database.

The Ryzen 5 220 uses 6 cores and 12 threads. The Ryzen 7 7700X3D uses 8 cores and 16 threads. Base clocks differ: the Ryzen 5 220 runs at 3.20 GHz, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D runs at 4.00 GHz. Boost clocks also differ: the Ryzen 5 220 reaches 4.90 GHz, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D reaches 4.50 GHz. The Ryzen 5 220 has the higher boost clock despite the lower base clock.

Thermal design power shows a major gap. The Ryzen 5 220 has a TDP of 28 W, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D has a TDP of 120 W. The socket differs as well: the Ryzen 5 220 uses AMD Socket FP8, and the Ryzen 7 7700X3D uses AMD Socket AM5.

Cache configurations differ significantly. Both have 64 KB of L1 cache per core and 1 MB of L2 cache per core. The L3 cache is the major split: the Ryzen 5 220 has 16 MB shared, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D has 96 MB shared.

Memory support is DDR5 for both, and both use a dual-channel memory bus. Memory bandwidth differs: the Ryzen 5 220 reaches 89.6 GB/s, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D reaches 83.2 GB/s. ECC memory support also differs: the Ryzen 5 220 does not support ECC, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D does.

PCIe capabilities differ. The Ryzen 5 220 uses PCIe Gen 4 with 14 lanes (CPU only). The Ryzen 7 7700X3D uses PCIe Gen 5 with 24 lanes (CPU only).

Integrated graphics differ. The Ryzen 5 220 has Radeon 740M graphics. The Ryzen 7 7700X3D has Radeon Graphics without a specific model designation.

Market segments differ. The Ryzen 5 220 is a mobile processor, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D is a desktop processor. The Ryzen 5 220 is in the Ryzen 5 generation line with Zen 4 (Hawk Point), while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D is in the 7000 series and the Ryzen 7 generation line with Zen 4 (Raphael). The Ryzen 7 7700X3D has an explicit series designation of 7000 series, while the Ryzen 5 220 has none.

Part numbers differ: the Ryzen 5 220 is 100-000001611, and the Ryzen 7 7700X3D is 100-000002235. Neither processor has an unlocked multiplier. Both are marked as Active in production status.

Architecture Differences

The two processors share the Zen 4 architecture family but implement it in different packages and process nodes.

The Ryzen 5 220 uses the Hawk Point codename and is built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. It contains 20,900 million transistors on a 137 mm² die. The Ryzen 7 7700X3D uses the Raphael codename and is built on a 5 nm process at TSMC. It contains 11,270 million transistors on a 71 mm² die. The Ryzen 5 220 therefore packs more transistors on a larger die with a smaller process node, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D uses a larger process node with fewer transistors on a smaller die.

The core configuration differs as noted above: 6 cores and 12 threads versus 8 cores and 16 threads. The Ryzen 7 7700X3D has two additional cores and four additional threads.

Cache architecture shows the most striking architectural difference. Both use 64 KB of L1 per core and 1 MB of L2 per core. The L3 cache, however, is six times larger on the Ryzen 7 7700X3D: 96 MB shared versus 16 MB shared. This large L3 cache is a defining feature of the X3D part.

The Ryzen 5 220 supports PCIe Gen 4 with 14 lanes, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D supports PCIe Gen 5 with 24 lanes. The newer PCIe generation and higher lane count on the desktop part reflect its platform positioning. The Ryzen 5 220 offers higher memory bandwidth at 89.6 GB/s versus 83.2 GB/s, despite both using dual-channel DDR5. ECC support is present only on the Ryzen 7 7700X3D.

Foundry and process details come from TSMC for both, but at different nodes: 4 nm for the Ryzen 5 220 and 5 nm for the Ryzen 7 7700X3D. The Ryzen 5 220 combines a smaller process node with a higher transistor count, which may explain its lower 28 W TDP. The Ryzen 7 7700X3D, with its 120 W TDP, targets a desktop environment with less constrained thermal limits.

The integrated graphics differ in naming: the Ryzen 5 220 includes Radeon 740M, while the Ryzen 7 7700X3D includes a generic Radeon Graphics solution. Both processors are locked, with no unlocked multiplier for overclocking via the multiplier.

The production status for both is Active. Release dates differ: the Ryzen 5 220 was released on 2025-01-05, and the Ryzen 7 7700X3D was released on 2026-05-30. The Ryzen 5 220 predates the Ryzen 7 7700X3D by roughly a year and a half.
