AMD's upcoming Ryzen 9000X3D processors are generating buzz in the tech community, with new leaked benchmarks suggesting these 3D V-Cache enhanced chips may offer substantial multi-threaded performance gains over their non-X3D counterparts.
According to recent rumors from leaker CodeCommando, who previously shared accurate information about AMD's Ryzen 9000 series, the new X3D variants could deliver up to 12% better multi-core performance compared to standard Ryzen 9000 models. While single-core performance appears to be on par or slightly lower, the alleged multi-core improvements are intriguing given the typically lower TDP and clock speeds of previous X3D designs.
Key highlights from the rumored Cinebench R23 benchmarks include:
- Ryzen 7 9800X3D (8-core): 2,145 single-core / 23,315 multi-core
- Ryzen 9 9950X3D (16-core): 2,245 single-core / 42,375 multi-core
If accurate, these figures would represent significant gains over the previous generation. The Ryzen 7 9800X3D could potentially offer up to 24% better multi-core performance than the Ryzen 7 7800X3D.
AMD appears to be implementing new techniques for the Ryzen 9000X3D lineup, including full overclocking support, which may explain the unexpected multi-core performance boost. This could make the X3D variants even more appealing to enthusiasts and gamers who have praised previous generations for their gaming prowess.
The Ryzen 9000X3D family is expected to include:
- Ryzen 5 9600X3D
- Ryzen 7 9800X3D
- Ryzen 9 9900X3D
- Ryzen 9 9950X3D
While release dates remain unconfirmed, rumors suggest the Ryzen 7 9800X3D could launch as early as this month, with higher-end models following in early 2025.
It's important to note that these benchmark results are unverified and should be treated with caution. Real-world performance may vary, and we'll need to wait for official reviews to draw definitive conclusions about the Ryzen 9000X3D lineup's capabilities.
As Intel prepares to launch its Core Ultra 200 (Arrow Lake) processors, the competition in the high-performance CPU market is heating up. The performance of AMD's Ryzen 9000X3D chips could play a crucial role in determining which company holds the gaming performance crown in the coming months.
