As reported by our colleagues at Computerbase, ASUS may have inadvertently given the first hints of the upcoming Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs from AMD, which are already being talked about even before their official announcement by the manufacturer. These new processors are said to be based on the Zen 5 architecture and use 3D V-Cache technology, an extension that could significantly increase the L3 cache memory. The clues come from the source code of the ASUS website, where new motherboards with the X870E and X870 chipsets were recently presented. Within this code, a mention of Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs was discovered, suggesting that AMD plans to offer these processors for the AM5 platform. This discovery sheds light on AMD’s possible plans to expand the existing Ryzen 9000 series with more powerful models with additional caches.
The introduction of X3D variants in the Ryzen 9000 series is a logical continuation of AMD’s strategy, which has already been successfully applied to the previous Zen 3 and Zen 4-based models. In these previous generations, X3D CPUs were able to achieve significant performance gains through the integration of 3D V-Cache technology in certain applications, especially in games. It is therefore obvious that AMD would also like to apply this technology to the latest processors.
The discovery of the mention of Ryzen 9000X3D in the source code of the ASUS website was made by a well-known hardware leaker, Momomo_US. The source suggests that ASUS is already aware of the upcoming processors, although AMD itself has not yet released any official information. The source code describes that the microsite is being prepared for the presentation of the new AMD chipsets of the X870E and X870 series as well as the future Ryzen 9000X3D processors. This information suggests that the release of these new processors could be imminent.

As far as the technical details are concerned, it can be assumed that the Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs will benefit from 3D V-Cache technology in a similar way to their predecessors. This technology makes it possible to significantly expand the L3 cache, which can lead to a noticeable increase in performance, particularly for computationally intensive applications such as modern video games. The additional cache allows for more efficient data processing, which can lead to lower latency times and better overall performance values.
However, there is as yet no specific information on when these processors will be available or what specific performance improvements they will offer over the standard Ryzen 9000 CPUs. It remains to be seen whether the new X3D models will have to compromise on clock speeds as before, as the additional cache layer usually results in a slightly reduced maximum clock speed. Nevertheless, the improved efficiency in cache access could compensate for this reduction, which would continue to make the processors attractive for performance-oriented users.
Previous reports and rumors suggest that the launch of the Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs could potentially take place in October, coinciding with the launch of the new AMD 800 series motherboards. It is expected that these new processors will offer full overclocking support and that their cache sizes will be similar to those of existing models. However, the combination of 3D V-Cache and the improved Instruction Per Core (IPC) performance of the Zen 5 architecture should lead to noticeable performance gains.
Whether these new processors represent a significant improvement over the Ryzen 7800X3D already available and the Ryzen 7600X3D models that may soon be released remains to be seen. For AMD, it will be crucial that the new CPUs offer sufficient performance reserves to represent an attractive alternative to the existing and upcoming models. Ultimately, the exact specifications and benchmarks will determine whether the investment in the new X3D models is worthwhile for end consumers.
Overall, the leaked information shows that AMD is continuing its successful strategy of developing high-performance processors that are optimized with advanced cache technologies. While official details are still lacking, indications are that the upcoming Ryzen 9000X3D processors could be an interesting addition to the existing AMD portfolio, especially for users who want to get the most out of their system.
