According to leaked marketing slides from Videocard’z sources, the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is expected to deliver 8% higher gaming performance and a 15% boost in multi-threaded workloads compared to the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. This is intriguing because the Ryzen 7 7800X3D is widely regarded as the best CPU for gamers, making the expected improvements of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D quite impressive.
In addition to the improved performance, the slides highlight several other enhancements, including next-generation 3D V-cache, 96MB L3 cache, and better thermal performance compared to the previous generation. The slides also indicate that the Ryzen 7 9800X3D will feature higher clock speeds, reaching a maximum boost clock of up to 5.2 GHz.
