Summary
AMDhas pulled back the curtain on the Ryzen 9000X3D processors and stated that the new units will be out on November 7. While no further details were offered byAMD, the latest additions to the Ryzen X3D lineup will build upon their reputation as the best gaming-focused CPUs on the market.
The news of the Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs came just weeks after AMD launched the base Ryzen 9000 series. Although the launch of the Ryzen 9000 CPUs was delayed due to printing errors discovered in manufacturing, that did not stop AMD from releasing its Zen 5 generation of processors ahead ofIntel’s Arrow Lake CPUs. Boasting clock speeds up to 5.7 GHz and compatibility with 600 and 800 series motherboards from partners like ASUS and MSI, the AMD Ryzen 9000 series looks to continue the company’s upward trend in the processor market. With the pending launch of the Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs, AMD looks to expand its market share.
Following weeks oflaunch window rumors for the AMD CPUs, the company confirmed that the speculation was correct. In a short video posted on its social media channels, AMD stated the Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs would launch on Thursday, November 7. However, no information about pricing, or how many Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs would be part of the lineup, was given at the time of writing. Like its predecessors, the Ryzen 9000X3D will continue to use AMD’s patented 3D V-Cache technology to increase the L3 cache in each processor and improve gaming performance in various titles. However, this comes at the cost of lower base clock speeds compared to base Ryzen 9000 CPUs like the Ryzen 7 9700X, as well as with the inability to overclock them.
When Will AMD Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs Be Available?
Along with the launch of the upcoming Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs, AMD discounted some of itscurrent lineup of Ryzen 9000 processorsin response to the launch of Intel’s Arrow Lake. These discounts range from $30 to $50, with the price of the Ryzen 5 9600X sitting at $249 on Amazon following the price cut. By comparison, the Intel Core Ultra 5 245KF will launch at $294, making the Ryzen 5 9600X cheaper on average by $45.
Between the launch of the Ryzen 9000X3D processors and its continued work ontechnologies such as FSR4, AMD looks to improve its gaming outreach in both 2024 and 2025. It remains to be seen how the Ryzen 9000X3D lineup will fare compared to its counterparts.
AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D
AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D extends the lifespan of the AM4 platform through its 3D V-Cache technology that helps it perform equally well in games as the latest Ryzen 7000 CPUs. With 8 Cores/16 threads configuration, it is somewhat equivalent to the more expensive 5800X3D and is perfect for both gaming and CPU-intensive workloads
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
The AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D is AMD’s latest and greatest CPU when it comes to gaming. With an excellent and highly efficient gaming performance that tops the charts currently, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D is here to stay and has a crown to claim thanks to its 3D V-Cache-enabled prowess when it comes to gaming on a PC.The octa-core CPU currently happens to be the fastest in the business for gaming even as it leads efficiency charts at the top, making it a very sought-after gaming upgrade.
AMD Ryzen 7 9700X
The AMD Ryzen 7 9700X is a mid-tier offering in the latest Ryzen 9000 series of CPUs, and it brings eight cores, 16 threads, and a boost clock speed of 5.5 GHz. The new chip is more efficient than its previous generation counterpart, and it supports more DDR5 RAM clocked at 5600 MHz.
