The AMD Ryzen 7 3700X is an 8C/16T processor, as is the Ryzen 7 3800X, with the only difference being stock clock speeds for base and boost speeds. There is no physical difference between the two processors, but the $70 difference is real and primarily nets a higher stock clock. If you're wondering about the differences between the R7 3700X and R7 3800X in gaming and workstation benchmarks, like Adobe Premiere, Photoshop, Blender, and V-Ray, we answer those questions in this video.
