Finally, the specifications of the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D have been leaked. Geizhals, a price comparison tool for European retailers, listed this processor with its full specifications. The processor is expected to go on sale on 7th November.
The compatibility of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D and the other 9000X3D CPUs with all AMD motherboards from the previous generation may be even more intriguing. That is every motherboard that has a chipset from the AMD 600 series, including the AMD A620, their entry-level CPU, and even the workstation-oriented PRO series.
Why it matters: This CPU has been hyped for a long time now, and the leaked specification only increased the hype even more.
The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU features AMD Zen 5 architecture with 5.20GHz Turbo Frequency and 120W TDP. This processor has the highest base frequency to date, 4.70 GHz. The old record was held by the Ryzen 9 9900X, with 4.40 GHz.
In terms of turbo frequencies, it remains at 5.20 GHz, which is 500 MHz lower than the fastest, the Ryzen 9 9950X, or 300 MHz lower than the Ryzen 7 9700X. As a result, it will be the newest and greatest CPU available for gaming.
The 3D V-Cache technology is the main benefit here. This enables it to have 104 MB of cache overall, as opposed to the Ryzen 7 9700X’s 40 MB. And greater than an 80 MB Ryzen 9 9950X. It is 120W at the TDP level, compared to the Ryzen 7 9700X’s 65W or 105W. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D, its predecessor, had the same TDP.
This processor, however, is said to be capable of supporting up to 192 GB of DDR5 RAM at 6,000 MT/s (up to 8,000 MT/s with overclocking). It also has an integrated graphics card with 128 Stream Processors running at 2.20 GHz using the RDNA2 architecture.
According to AMD, the Ryzen 9800X3D will not be much faster than its predecessor. It expects an 8% increase in in-game performance and a 15% increase in performance when using multitasking apps or creating content.
AMD is launching Turbo Game Mode technology because it is aware that this performance boost is small. This technology works with CPUs from the previous generation as well as the new ones.
The ‘non-X3D’ models will also experience performance gains, but they won’t be as obvious. AMD SMT (AMD’s Intel Hyper-Threading) technology can be disabled using this BIOS option. But this technology will benefit all processors to an extent.
