AMD could have confirmed the discharge date of the hotly-anticipated Ryzen 9 7950X3D, Ryzen 9 7900X3D, and Ryzen 7 7800X3D, nevertheless it doesn’t look intentional. Based on OC3D, AMD briefly revealed a launch date of February 14 for its new processors.
The launch date has since been faraway from all listings on AMD’s web site, so this was most likely a slip-up. Nevertheless, February 14 isn’t out of the query. AMD confirmed when asserting the processors that they might arrive in February.
That doesn’t make the date a performed deal, although. Earlier variations of AMD’s listings confirmed the launch date as January 4 when AMD introduced the processors. There’s additionally an opportunity AMD put up a tentative launch date within the center the February earlier than the ultimate day is confirmed.
The discharge date isn’t the important piece of lacking data for these processors. Value is. AMD hasn’t stated how a lot its Ryzen 7000 3D V-Cache CPUs will price, notably the flagship Ryzen 9 7950X3D. The bottom Ryzen 9 7950X already retails for $700, and if the earlier technology is something to go by, the 3D-stacked half will probably be at the least as costly.
Final-gen’s Ryzen 7 5800X3D debuted at $450. That’s the identical worth the bottom Ryzen 7 5800X launched at, however by the point AMD’s 3D-stacked half was out, the Ryzen 7 5800X was promoting nearer to $350.
AMD’s 3D V-Cache packaging tech overhauls the design of its Ryzen 7000 CPUs by stacking extra cache on high of the processor. This further cache — as much as 144MB on the flagship mannequin — can have a large influence on gaming efficiency, relying on the sport. AMD says its new chips present round a 15% enhance in gaming efficiency in comparison with last-gen X3D components.
As well as, AMD says its flagship Ryzen 9 7950X3D is as much as 24% quicker than Intel’s Core i9-13900K in video games. Extra surprisingly, AMD posted features of as much as 52% in productiveness apps over Intel’s flagship chip, all whereas lowering the utmost energy draw of the processor.
Though these are thrilling claims, it’s essential to attend till the processors are right here to validate AMD’s efficiency. Final-gen’s Ryzen 7 5800X3D continues to be one of many greatest gaming CPUs available on the market, nevertheless it takes a beating in non-gaming functions. We may even see a repeat on this technology.
For now, all we will do is wait till AMD has extra to share. The primary processors arrive in February, and probably on Valentine’s Day, however AMD nonetheless has a variety of particulars to fill in between at times.
