AMDS Ryzen 9950x3d start date leaked: March 12th

The X3D processors from AMD are absolutely the best when you create a gaming PC. The additional performance you get from the 3D V cache is the reason why the Ryzen 7 9800x3d, the first of its generation, which starts with the function of the feature at the end of last year, is still a hot ticket article. AMD has in the work Mines Founders on the Top-Line 9950x3d and 9900x3d, and now we know when to arrive. Probably.

I'll stop teasing you: it is March 12, next Wednesday. This is the start date for the Ryzen 9 9950x3d and 9900x3d according to JD.com, one of the largest retailers on the Chinese mainland (discovered by Toms Hardware). This is not a guarantee of its global availability next week … but based on the latest chip publications from AMD and various rumors that float around, it seems to be a pretty safe bet at that time. The leaked prices for the 16-kern and 12-kernel monster CPUs are 5,599 yuan (~ 772 USD) or 4,599 yuan (~ 634 USD).

Before you worry, the price for the 9800x3D in China (as far as I can assess) is 4,000 yuan or about $ 552-different factors such as the tax of added value tend to be more expensive compared to dollar prices. In fact, this price difference is pretty much right compared to the sales price of $ 479 in the USA for the 15 percent VAT rate.

A small napkin mathematics that occupied the 9950x3D at around 650 USD or 660 US dollars and the 9900x3d at 540 US dollars. All fairly reasonable, given the $ 700 and 600 dollars of the corresponding X3D chips from the 7000 generation in 2023. This presupposes that various other factors neither increase prices before nor after the release date.
