AMD has revealed the official pricing for its Ryzen 9 9950X3D and 9900X3D, as well as their launch date. Come 12 March, the two Ryzen 9000 3D V-Cache CPUs will be purchasable at US$699 (~RM3,085) and US$599 (~RM2,644), respectively.
To recap, the 9950X3D features 16 Zen5 CPU Cores and like the 9800X3D, it’s got a massive 3D V-Cache attached to it. 144MB of L3 Cache, to be precise. Like the 9800X3D as well, it uses second generation 3D V-Cache technology, meaning that you can make it run faster than its advertised 5.7GHz boost clock. In terms of gaming performance, the red chipmaker boasts an 8% average increase over the previous generation 7950X3D and 20% average increase in frames when compared to the Intel’s Core Ultra 9 285K. It also has a TDP of 170W.
The Ryzen 9 9900X3D features 12 Zen5 cores with a base and boost clock of 4.4GHz and 5.5GHz, respectively, and an L3 Cache of 128MB. Like its non-X3D counterpart, the CPU also has a TDP of 120W.
