AMD Ryzen 9000X3D Release Date Could be Sooner
With the recent rumors, AMD Ryzen 9000X3D CPU could be launching just two months after the upcoming release of confirmed Zen 5 processors.
AMD Ryzen 9000X3D Release Date
During the Computex 2024 conference in Taipei, AMD pulled back the curtain on its Ryzen 9000 series of CPUs, which are set to launch alongside compatible X870 and X870E motherboards in July. Among the confirmed CPUs launching in the Zen 5 series, AMD’s Ryzen 9000 series is slated to be much more powerful than the available Zen 4 generation. AMD stated that the most powerful of the confirmed Zen 5 CPUs, the Ryzen 9 9950X, will have 16 cores and 32 threads, with a boosted frequency at 5.7 GHz and a 170W power draw.
By comparison, the Ryzen 5 9600X will improve upon the readily available Ryzen 5 7600X by offering up to 5.4 GHz of processing power and a decreased power draw of 65W. In addition to the Zen 5 lineup, AMD confirmed that the AM4 socket would live on with the Ryzen 5000XT CPUs launching in July.
A new rumor also states that AMD Ryzen 9000X3D lineup may arrive sooner than anticipated. According to VideoCardz and Club386, a reliable source claims the Ryzen 9000X3D processors could launch as soon as September 2024, two months after the Ryzen 9000 series hits the market.
The source also stated that the September release window for the Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs lines up with the X870E chipset’s launch window, but did not state which version of the Ryzen 9000X3D would come out first.
Compared to their non-X3D counterparts, AMD processors such as the Ryzen 7 7800X3D have proven popular with PC gamers since their inception. While these Ryzen processors do not have as high clock speeds as their counterparts, the X3D units use a vertically stacked L3 cache, dubbed AMD 3D V Cache, to improve gaming performance.
Intel is rumored to launch its Arrow Lake CPUs in October, AMD Ryzen 9000X3D rumored release date might be response to this competetion. Yet these information are not confirmed with any valid developer yet.
