AMD Zen 5 rumours

[Minstadave]

I sold my full system and am buying another with the 5090 so might as well get the 9950x3d.

Very nice!

Hopefully 9959X3D won't be crazily scalped.. its the last remaining piece to finish my new rig. Need it ASAP as been collecting parts since September

I don't think it will be, the 8 core has always been the part with the highest demand and that's readily in stock now.

Wondering what direction OCUK will be taking with pricing.. The 9800X3D direction or Nvidia 50 series..

Just correcting my previous post:

9950X3D and 9900X3D​

Embargo lifted March 11
Release March 12

I'm stupidly tempted to buy one for no real reason other than it'll last me several years.
I need to look into the CCD situation as I assume its still the same with the 9900X3D i.e. it's at best as fast/potentially slower than the 9800X3D due to the split of cores (?)

AMD said not so long ago the 9800X3D will still remain their fastest chip for gaming once the 9900X3D and 9950X3D launch, Which I'm guessing is due to latency and clocks, But for productivity the 9900X3D would be decent.

Anyone know if OCUK have these available on 12th March? (I hope at msrp) - 9950X3D.

I'm waiting on a 9900x3d myself and hope they have them at MSRP
Noticed the now out of stock 7900x3d has gone up by £100 which is worrying to say the least.

 

[Rob_B]

I'm waiting to see the prices too, had hoped with the improved stock and these new releases it might make then 9800X3D drop a little but now I'm thinking that's probably just wishful thinking.

$599 sounds good to me
Should convert to around £500 once you add vat and such.

 

[Rob_B]

Same MSRP as the 9950X which is currently going for ~ £580 unfortunately

 

[pastymuncher]

More like $1 to £1 so £599, probably more. The 9900x3d isn't going to be a any cheaper than that as the 9800x3d is £479.99 and that's on offer at the moment. I can see the 9950x3d being £700-720.

 

[LtMatt]

Ignore

 

[ombadboy]

Wonder if these will be scalped like the latest GPU releases or if we'll be able to get one at release time without the panic. What time should be expect them to go live on OCUK? 2PM?

 

[Conanius]

Doesn't the 9950X3D have a higher boost clock than the 9800X3D?

if so how is the 9800 faster? I know, wait for benchmarks, but just curious.

I can be hopeful

 

[Matthew Hunt]

According to AMD marketing the 9950X3D is faster than the 9800X3D in games.
Hoping these will be freely available on launch.

 

[Conanius]

Just noticed there are now 3 results for the 9950X3D and 1 for the 9900X3D on CPU Benchmark

No idea how accurate, but interesting...
