AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D is the most anticipated processor of this new generation of AMD chips. I’m not saying that it will be the most sought after and of course not the best selling as we are talking about the brand’s high-end integrated equipment for home equipment and therefore will only be the choice of a minority of all users, but yes, which is what will tell us how far AMD was able to go with the combination ZEN4 microarchitecture with its 3D cache technology.

As we told you a few days ago, AMD presented no less than three versions of chips with stacked cache technology, Ryzen 7 7800X3D with 8 cores and 16 threads, Ryzen 9 7900X3D with 12 cores and 24 threads and Ryzen 9 7950X3D with 16 cores and 32 threads , the processor called to become the top of the line of this generation of AMD, and therefore the integrated one that will have to face the Intel Core i9-13900K, with which Intel has done what it owns. at Raptor Lake.

Since the Ryzen 9 7950X3D has already been officially announced, we already know a lot of information about it, for example, that its maximum working frequency is 5.7 GHz (and remember that the X in the name means that it has a disabled multiplier, why overclocking will be within reach) that its TDP will be 120 watts and that it will equip a whopping 144 megabytes of buffer memory, which will significantly speed up a large number of tasks.

What we don’t know yet is the date they will hit the market, or rather we didn’t know, as it seems the company itself has accidentally leaked, Ryzen 9 7950X3D release date: next February 14. As Digitaltrends reports, the tech company briefly posted a listing showing Valentine’s Day as the date chosen for the processor’s launch, but that listing was quickly removed (which didn’t stop it from becoming public.

However, we must take into account that the date indicated in this list may not be final, that the company still has room to change it and move it or delay it by a few days, in principle and with the exception of surprises, always until the month of February. However, this type of accidental publication is usually completely in line with reality, so we can count on this date as something more than probable.

We still don’t know, yes, what the price of the Ryzen 9 7950X3D will be when it hits the market. Recall that when the Ryzen 7 5800X3D arrived on the market, it did so with a price of $449, while the Ryzen 7 5800X was priced around $350. So if we take into account that the price of the Ryzen 9 7950X retails for around 725 euros, it should surprise us little or nothing that this top of the range is hitting the market at an astronomical price of more than 800 euros.
