The anticipated AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D is making waves with its upcoming release. This powerful chip promises to deliver exceptional performance without the need for a higher TDP rating, staying consistent with its predecessor. Enthusiasts and gamers are eagerly awaiting more details as the launch approaches.
NBD Shipping Log Sheds Light on Ryzen 7 9850X3D’s TDP
Recent reports have unveiled that AMD is gearing up to launch faster X3D versions of its Ryzen 9000X3D series. Among these, the Ryzen 7 9850X3D and Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 are set to offer impressive boost clock speeds. Interestingly, the Ryzen 7 9850X3D will maintain a TDP of 120 W, similar to the Ryzen 7 9800X3D. This stable power rating ensures it efficiently handles the enhanced frequencies.
Sources confirm that the processor’s page was briefly featured on AMD’s official website before being removed. Today, a notable screenshot from an NBD shipping manifest confirms the existence of the Ryzen 7 9850X3D and its 120 W TDP. This TDP matches its predecessor, ensuring capability in managing higher boost frequencies. The Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 is projected to break new ground with a 200 W TDP.
Performance Enhancements Await Ryzen Fans
The Ryzen 7 9850X3D will feature a base clock of 4.7 GHz, with boost capabilities up to 5.6 GHz—400 MHz above the Ryzen 7 9800X3D. The chip will offer 96 MB of L3 cache and maintain its current iGPU settings. Gamers can expect marginally improved performance in both gaming and applications, thanks to these enhancements. Despite slightly increased power demands, the 9850X3D is anticipated to be a leader in power efficiency, much like its predecessor.
Anticipation builds as the release date remains unconfirmed. However, projections suggest that these new processors might hit the market by Q1 2026.
