AMD preparing Ryzen 5700X3D and 5500X3D AMD to launch two new processors with 8 and 6 cores, equipped with 3D V-Cache. As per information from chi11eddog, a reliable source for hardware leaks regarding CPU and motherboard launches, AMD is reportedly in the process of developing at least two additional CPUs in the Ryzen 5000X3D series.

ah ffs, literally just got the 5700x
5700x gets you most of the perf of the 5800x at a much more reasonable TDP and operating temp. X3D benefits aside, you have one of the most efficient 8 core desktop CPUs currently on the market.
5800X runs hot as fuck because it can’t even hit the full 142W stock TDP on non-goat cooling.
I run it with effective 85W thermal / power limits due to the cooler I have. I’m probably losing a few % in perf but it’s a LOT more efficient and runs cooler.
If you were in the market for an 8-core X3D, why didn’t you buy the existing 8-core X3D?
