The Ryzen 7 9800X3D, a new Zen 5 desktop processor with 3D V-Cache that will, if anything like the preceding Zen 4 model, feature 8 CPU cores and 16 threads, is releasing as early as the end of October, according to new rumors shared on China’s Chiphell forums. AMD is also said to be prepping a Ryzen 9 9950X3D and Ryzen 9 9900X3D, two additional Zen 5 CPUs that feature not only 3D V-Cache, but also “new features,” but these seemingly won’t arrive until 2025.

- “This time the 9950X3D and 9900X3D will have some new features so they won’t be released together with the 9800X3D.”
- “I estimate they will be released early next year.”
- “…AMD’s official staff also revealed that Gigabyte’s X870 press conference had AMD people.”
- “And this year there are indeed only 9800X3D, 9950X3D and 9900X3D because they have new things to wait until next year.”

AMD on its latest desktop CPUs:
…the new AMD Ryzen 9000 Series desktop processors represent a significant step forward, offering users cutting-edge computing power and reliability. Built on the latest “Zen 5” architecture, AMD Ryzen 9000 Series desktop processors deliver an impressive average 16% better IPC performance compared to the prior generation of Ryzen processors’ “Zen 4” architecture, with the top-of-the-line Ryzen 9 9950X delivering the fastest consumer desktop performance in the world.

Yessss
See no real reason to upgrade my 7800X3D unless the price and performance is right.

Honestly no I wouldn't in your shoes either. But in my shoes... a 9950x3d sounds about perfect.
Whether to go for a multi-CCD variant is going to be up to how well AMD (and Windows) handles the thread scheduling.
Lots of ways to approach the problem, and lots of ways for it to still go off kilter.

Yep, my thoughts as well but this is also the one I plan to wait a year or two for prices to drop and will then become my upgrade from AM4.
Maybe they'll put 3D cache on both CCD's. Then it doesn't matter which one is parked. Or neither need to be parked.

That unfortunately is unlikely to address the issue - which is cross-CCD communication.
It'd help in the sense that threads assigned to either CCD will benefit from X3D cache though I'll give you that.

I want either that, or the CCDs to start coming with more than 8 cores.
This is what happens when sales suck

Maybe Zen 6
When performance Epyc has more than 8 cores per CCD, that’s probably when we see it on the consumer side.
