The confirmation of the future launch of Ryzen 9000X3D processors and their pioneering 3D V-Cache technology was the highlight of the news that AMD brought to Computex 2024. The big Asian trade show has just closed its doors to the 2025 edition, but he left us with important announcements that you can see in this tab with our coverage.

AMD was one of the big attractions at the Taiwan trade show thanks to the relevance of its ads. You already know what was presented two different platforms for client computing based on its latest architecture Zen 5 On the one hand processors for desktop computers, Ryzen 9000, and on the other hand the development for notebooks Ryzen AI 300 The icing on the cake was the Ryzen 9000X3D, which although they did not have an official announcement, they were talked about at the fair.

Ryzen 9000X3D plus 3D V-Cache

Boys from PC gamer They had the opportunity to speak with Donny Woligroski, AMD’s senior technical marketing manager, and asked him specifically about this product line, which has a lot of sales traction, especially among gamers. In fact, the last model released, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, became the best seller when it was launched.

In case you don’t know what this technology provides, say AMD released it a few years ago as “3D Vertical Cache” or whatever it is, using 3D stacked level three cache. This type of L3 cache design offers important silicon-level and performance-level advantages, especially in gaming. And all this while maintaining the same socket, chipset and technologies of regular versions.

AMD promised at Computex “really interesting update” for this technology and the future launch of Ryzen 9000X3D. Woligroski assured that “They didn’t rest on their laurels”that “they improved everything that could be done with X3D”and “active work on truly differentiating elements” about what we have seen so far.

The executive did not explain what elements will be involved. “differentiators”but there is talk of the introduction of this technology also in the APU group and with it also in portable computers. performance improvement that could be significant due to increased bandwidth and massive cache. On the more technical side, AMD would experiment with the idea of ​​using two X3D chips in a single processor. We’ll see.

The Ryzen 9000X3D won’t arrive until early 2025, once the mainstream Ryzen 9000 series they’re based on is deployed, but it’s good news that AMD continues to refine innovative technologies like this 3D V-Cache.
