At CES last month AMD officially announced its new Ryzen 7000X3D series processors, promising three SKUs equipped with 3D V-cache to provide a boost to gaming performance. Today, AMD is finally announcing availability and pricing for each of these processors, starting at $449 for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D.
With Ryzen 5000, AMD launched its first X3D processor, utilising 3D V-Cache. We only got one SKU back then but a new wave of X3D CPUs are now on the way for Ryzen 7000. There will be two Ryzen 9 SKUs and a Ryzen 7 option, all featuring 3D V-Cache technology, which can provide a nice performance boost for memory-demanding tasks, like gaming.
Today, AMD has announced availability and pricing for the Ryzen 9 7950X3D, the Ryzen 9 7900X3D and the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. You can see specs and pricing for each of the three chips in the table below:
Model | Cores/Threads | Boost/Base Frequency | Cache | TDP | SEP (USD) |
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D | 16C/32T | Up to 5.7 GHz / 4.2 GHz | 144MB | 120W | $699 |
AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D | 12C/24T | Up to 5.6 GHz / 4.4 GHz | 140MB | 120W | $599 |
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D | 8C/16T | Up to 5.0 GHz / 4.2 GHz | 104MB | 120W | $449 |
