We might now know the full specs for the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU thanks to a new manufacturer leak

Tons of reports and rumors person gone flying astir concerning nan upcoming AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor, including merchandise dates, timepiece speeds, and more. But acknowledgment to a caller leak from nan motherboard manufacturer, we whitethorn now person a bully thought of nan specs it’s packing.

Maxsun, which manufactures nan motherboard for nan processor, has seemed to uncover immoderate juicy accusation regarding nan chip. Interestingly enough, it’s referred to arsenic nan AMD Ryzen 9 9800X3D successful nan leak but astir apt it’s nan Ryzen 7. According to nan listing, it has a TDP of 120W and 96MB of cache, including 32MB of L3 cache and 64MB of 3D V-Cache. This intends nan cache size is still nan aforesaid arsenic successful erstwhile models, which honestly isn’t great.

The leaked archive besides reveals that nan guidelines timepiece velocity is 4.7 GHz — 900 MHz faster than nan 9700X. Most apt this is owed to nan TDP being higher successful nan 9800X3D. The leak besides states that it’ll person a boosted timepiece velocity of 5.2 GHz, which would oddly beryllium 300MHz slower than nan 9700X. This each lines up pinch an earlier leak that confirms nan aforesaid information. As for single-core timepiece speed, that hasn’t been revealed astatine this clip but it’s assumed to beryllium 5.4/5.5GHz.

If past reports are to beryllium trusted, past we should person charismatic confirmation of nan 9800X3D’s specs connected October 25, 2024. Though astir apt nan existent motorboat day would beryllium sometime successful November 2024.

Disappointing rumored performance

Though guidelines timepiece speeds look to beryllium promising capable (while boosted not truthful much), a caller report from a German tech tract seems to constituent to alternatively unimpressive benchmark scores. In gaming comparisons, nan Ryzen 9800X3D is 11% faster than nan 7800X3D successful Far Cry 6. Shadow of nan Tomb Raider sees an uptick of only 4% and Black Myth: Wukong a dismal 2%.

Cinebench does look a spot much promising successful this regard, pinch a immense capacity summation of astir 18% and 28% faster than its predecessor for single-core and multi-core, respectively. But still, considering this is expected to beryllium a next-gen chip, nan wide results are alternatively lackluster.
