According to Chiphell leaker “zhangzhonghao,” who claims to have information from Gigabyte’s X870 motherboard showcase, which was also attended by AMD employees, the company is reportedly launching three X3D SKUs, but they are not coming at the same time.

The rumors about the 9000X3D series were initially sparked by AMD themselves, as their employees were eager to discuss what’s coming next for the AM5 socket. The new CPUs will have some “cool differentiators,” claimed a product manager, though this wasn’t explained in detail. Meanwhile, leakers have shared insights from board makers, who are often notified about upcoming CPU updates in advance.

This time, the 9950X3D and 9900X3D will have some new features, so they won’t be released alongside the 9800X3D. I’m guessing they’ll be available early next year. […]

It’s not just me saying this; AMD’s official representatives have also hinted at it. AMD people attended Gigabyte’s X870 launch event. Moreover, this year, there are indeed only the 9800X3D, 9950X3D, and 9900X3D, as there are new things coming next year.

When comparing the results to the previous generation, it appears we’re seeing double-digit gains across the board. We’re using recently updated data from a Guru3D review, which shows:

  • Ryzen 9 9950X3D is 10% faster in single-core and 17% faster in multi-core than Ryzen 9 7950X3D and
  • Ryzen 7 9800X3D is 20% faster in single-core and 28% faster in multi-core than Ryzen 7 7800X3D.
