AMD Ryzen 9800X3D CPU’s Release Date Leaked

AMD Ryzen 9800X3D is going to be the latest entry in the X3D series of CPUs by AMD, which includes famous CPUs like Ryzen 7800X3D & Ryzen 5800X3D.

It looks like one of the most awaited gaming CPUs, the AMD Ryzen 9800X3D, is just around the corner.

Part of the X3D series, it comes with 3D V-Cache, which basically puts an extra cache on top of the existing L3 cache of the CPU. This extra cache, that is 64MB in capacity so far, helps tremendously in some games. Allowing an extra boost in gaming performance not seen before.

AMD first experimented it with the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D CPU, with a massive success. It then followed it up with AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, with even bigger success.

Now with the release of the AMD Ryzen 9000 series, which had poor and mixed reviews, everyone is waiting for the X3D series CPUs. While initially they were stated to release in September, that seems to have changed.

Now, after months of waiting, we finally have more idea about their release dates.

Ryzen 9800X3D Release Date

A well known leaker from Chiphell forums (translation), via @harukaze5719, has leaked the dates for the AMD Ryzen 9800X3D’s announcement and release.

The post says that AMD will announce the Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU on 25th October, which is just a day after Intel Core Ultra 200 Arrow Lake’s release. However, the CPUs will start becoming available from the first week of November.

The post also claims that the clock frequency of the CPU is going to be quite high. However, while the price isn’t decided yet, the CPU is not expected to be cheap. This is interesting because the X3D series CPUs usually have lower clocks than the non-X3D. However, some other rumors too have claimed that Ryzen 9800X3D could have higher clocks this time around.

As for the release date itself, Hoang Anh Phu, another well known leaker, has revealed the exact date. In the reply to @harukaze5719, they hinted that the AMD Ryzen 9800X3D is going to release on 7th of November.

Conclusion

If AMD releases the Ryzen 9800X3D in early November, it marks the quickest entry of the X3D series of CPUs till date. There could be two reasons behind this move.

First is, the AMD Ryzen 9000 non-X3D CPUs are getting bad reviews. It’s possible that they aren’t selling that much either. Second, they want to counter Intel’s Arrow Lake series. With higher clocks, Ryzen 9800X3D is likely to beat every CPU out there in gaming.

In preparation for the release, AMD has also started pulling Ryzen 5800X3D out from many, if not most, markets around the world.

The problem is the pricing. Both Ryzen 5800X3D and Ryzen 7800X3D had a MSRP of $449 at release. If AMD is going to price Ryzen 9800X3D higher, people will not buy it as large numbers as before. Intel’s claim of lackluster performance of Arrow Lake in games isn’t helping the prices either.

Either way, it’s likely that we will soon officially hear from AMD about it.
