New rumors have surfaced that the 9800X3D could be launching in late October, however, new information suggests that this could be an announcement, and the X3D chip could be set to launch in early November.
The X3D chips are probably the most exciting product that AMD currently makes, and we’re not bagging on all the other products. it’s like watching AMD invent Ryzen all over again and constantly improve upon it. Just like Ryzen, the X3D chips started strong and have improved as the generations advanced, but what is to come out of the 9000 X3D series? We might know very soon.
9800X3D could come sooner than expected
VideoCardz reports that Gigabyte just had a conference regarding the X870 motherboards, this is likely where leaker Zhangzhonghao, who has recentlaiy changed their name, got this information. And opted to share it on the popular forum Chiphell.
The information was likely available as motherboard manufacturers are told about upcoming CPU releases in advance, and this is usually a pretty hush-hush topic for obvious reasons.
Zhangzhonghao states: “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.“
The more interesting thing to note is that the 9950X3D and 9900X3D will be bringing “new features”. Whether this be AI integration or better overclocking support, is unknown. but we are looking forward to seeing what that is.
It’s safe to say that we all assumed that AMD would follow a similar pattern of releases as they did for the 7000X3D series. However, even more rumors have now surfaced regarding the 9800X3D.
Hoang Anh Phu, the popular hardware leaker on X, has chipped in, and reckons the 9800X3D will launch in early November, as likely indicated by the rocket emoji. This means that the earlier date suggested could have been referring to an announcement, not a release.
It’s not safe to assume any of these rumors are true just yet, as always there is no official comment from AMD, and there likely never will be. We are excited to see what the 9000 X3D series will bring.
