Three Ryzen 7000X3D processors will reportedly launch in January

AMD tested the waters with 3D V-Cache last generation, launching one Ryzen 5000X3D processor. This time around, AMD will have several X3D series CPUs to choose from. According to the latest reports, three Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs will launch next month, offering up to 16 cores. 

As reported by QuasarZone (via @harukaze5719), there will be a 16-core, a 12-core and an 8-core processor Ryzen 7000X3D processor. The first two should be named Ryzen 9 7950X3D and 7900X3D, but the naming of the 8-core model hasn't been decided yet (Ryzen 7 7700X3D or Ryzen 7 7800X3D).

With the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, AMD couldn't maintain the clock speeds of the Ryzen 7 5800X. However, with the new X3D chips, it's expected that the clock speeds will be left unchanged. In the worst case, there might be a slight decrease. Hassan Mujtaba also gave additional details about the upcoming chips, claiming all of them would come with a 170W TDP.

The last bit of information is regarding their release date, which is expected to happen sometime in January 2023, as we've come to expect. That only further reinforces the possibility of AMD talking about the upcoming chips at CES 2023.

KitGuru says: Are you waiting for the Ryzen 7000X3D chips before upgrading your system? How much better do you think they will be compared to the non-X3D chips?
