More signs now point to the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D launching soon, and the possible announcement might arrive at the worst possible time for Intel.
The competition between Intel Arrow Lake and AMD Zen 5 hasn’t been as fierce as usual, with both lineups delivering small gen-to-gen improvements. However, it seems that AMD may soon add a staple to its list of the best processors, and the CPU might be announced at the worst possible time for Intel. I’m talking about the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, which now has a rumored release date alongside some performance benchmarks.
Recommended Videos AMD is now rumored to announce the 9800X3D alongside the 12-core and 16-core variants on October 25, which is the day after Intel’s Arrow Lake processors hit the shelves. This is said to be followed by a release date in the first week of November; November 7 seems to be the general consensus. The higher-end X3D chips may not be available until early 2025.
Announcing the 9800X3D so soon after Arrow Lake becomes available would definitely steal some of Intel’s thunder. Intel itself is aware that even the Core Ultra 9 285K may not beat the 7800X3D in gaming scenarios, so the gap should only be wider when compared to the 9800X3D.
