With the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D just a few days away, the first price leaks are already here -- and it's not looking good.

For Ryzen 9000X3D, AMD tucked the extra L3 cache at the bottom of the die, rather stacking it on top—and that allowed the company to run more electricity through the chips. Accordingly, this new ...

AMD shook up the high-end CPU market in 2023 when it dropped the 3D V-Cache enabled 16-core (8+8), 32-thread Ryzen 9 7950X3D, and the 12-core (6+6), 24-thread 7900X3D. This, followed by the AMD ...

AMD also recently told us that it has a new X3D driver update in the works, which it claims will reduce the latency issues seen on the 7950X3D that result from only one chip having the extra 3D V ...

It's not a million miles ahead of the last generation 7800X3D or 7950X3D—after all, Zen 5 wasn't a momentous change in AMD architecture. But it is much faster in professional workloads ...

AMD’s older models such as the Ryzen 9 7950X3D use a slower, older architecture and feature lower frequencies due to their use of first generation 3D V-Cache. Finally, Intel has the Core i9 ...

Like the 7950X3D and 7900X3D, these new X3D chips combine a pair of AMD's CPU chiplets, one that has the extra 64MB of cache stacked underneath it and one that doesn't. For the 7950X3D ...
