The presentation is scheduled for next week.

The release of the 9000X3D processors is getting closer and closer: After more and more leaks about the release and performance of the CPU have emerged in the past few days and weeks, there is now also a “near” confirmation from AMD that the presentation of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D is imminent.

  • There are other signs that the presentation is imminent: motherboard manufacturer Gigabyte is already explicitly talking about BIOS features for the upcoming Ryzen 9000 X3D processors, which set an ambitious goal:

In the invitation itself, AMD speaks of “new strategies to enhance the gaming experience and explore potential applications through on-site professional demonstrations and experiences on dedicated machines”. The event will also provide a look at previous development strategies and future plans.
