Description:
A new leak reveals AMDs Ryzen 9 9800X3D taking a gaming performance jump over 
the popular 7800X3D, but should you upgrade once it launches?

FULL STORY
======================================================================

A new leak claims AMDs upcoming Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor will see an 8% 
performance boost over the Ryzen 9 7800X3D  in other words, the chip that is 
regarded as one of the best gaming CPUs on the market now looks set to be 
dethroned. 

This could stand as a significant boost for PC gamers, especially considering 
the improvement in 3D V-Cache, which was a downside in our AMD Ryzen 7 
7800X3D review . The leak from VideoCardz contains a marketing description of 
the 9800X3D, revealing Next-Gen 3D V-Cache which points towards better 
thermal performance when operating at higher clock speeds. 

VideoCardz also reports that its expected to have a 15% enhancement over the 
7800X3D in multi-threaded workloads, ideal for multi-tasking duties and video 
editing, using 8 cores and 16 threads  this strikes a balance for both 
content creators and gamers, along with the aforementioned 3D V-Cache 
improvements. These pivotal enhancements being leaked ahead of the 9800X3Ds 
confirmed November 7th launch and AMDs full spec reveal gives gamers some 
insight into what to expect. Will the 9800X3D be worth the upgrade? 

While we have yet to see the full scope of what the Ryzen 7 9800X3D will have 
to offer specification-wise, the leaked marketing description gives us a 
great idea of what is in store for PC gamers. Considering the aforementioned 
8% boost in gaming performance and room for slightly higher clock speeds up 
to 5.2GHz compared to the previous 5GHz, the switch is certainly worth 
contemplating - and for gamers who have yet to upgrade to an AM5 chip, this 
performance boost could finally be the push they need. 

Despite the improvements listed in the leak, its important to note that there 
is only so much that can be done when it comes to poor game optimization on 
PC  an upgrade can help specifically with reducing stuttering in certain 
games, but its not the silver bullet for achieving optimal performance. 
Besides, most modern games are far more dependent on your GPU and available 
VRAM. 

If youre using the best GPUs on the market, like the Nvidia RTX 4080 Super or 
RTX 4090 , any kind of upgrade isnt entirely urgent, but well have to wait to 
see everything AMDs new processor has to offer before we can pass judgment on 
the value of this new chip. You might also like... AMD Ryzen 9800X3D leak
