Will AMD’s new 3D-stacked CPUs take the gaming crown from Intel’s finest? A new benchmark leak seems to indicate so.
The AMD faithful are surely elated, as this coming Tuesday marks the official release of AMD’s Ryzen 9 7000X3D processors. That’s the 12-core Ryzen 9 7900X3D and the 16-core Ryzen 9 7950X3D, both equipped with 64MB of 3D V-Cache on top of one of their eight-core CCDs. Those who bleed AMD red have probably already pre-ordered the new processors, but if you’re on the fence, you’ll want to see benchmarks, right?Well, here’s a few leaked benchmarks from a regular and reliable leaker with a tedious-to-type name, chi11eddog (@g01d3nm4ng0 on Twitter). Using a pre-release Ryzen 9 7950X3D, chi11eddog ran Cinebench R23’s multi-core test as well as a small suite of gaming benchmarks. Helpfully, the leaker also includes benchmark data from the extant Ryzen 9 7950X as well as a Core i9-13900K in the game benchmarks.
