AMD’s Ryzen 9000X3D Processors Partially Unveiled
In an unexpected turn of events, details about AMD’s upcoming Ryzen 9000X3D desktop processors have surfaced ahead of their official announcement. However, similar to Intel’s recently introduced Arrow Lake CPUs, these new chips may not deliver significant performance enhancements compared to their predecessors. This is particularly disappointing considering the lukewarm reception that AMD’s previous Ryzen 9000 series received.
Performance Insights from MSI Presentation
A recent presentation by MSI has shed light on the potential capabilities of the new processors. According to a report from HardwareLuxx, which was highlighted by VideoCardz, it appears that the multicore performance of these new chips could show notable improvements year-over-year. For instance, an eight-core variant of the 9000X3D reportedly outperforms its predecessor, the Ryzen 7 7900X3D, by as much as 28% in Cinebench R23 benchmarks.
Mixed Results in Gaming Performance
However, when it comes to gaming performance metrics such as those seen in titles like Black Myth: Wukong and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, initial tests conducted by MSI indicate only marginal gains—ranging from a mere increase of around 2%.
This mixed bag of results raises questions about whether these advancements will be sufficient to sway consumers who were underwhelmed by earlier models.
