The 3D Vertical Cache will of course be on the menu of the Zen 5 generation with processors Ryzen 9000X3D which could arrive quickly.
CEO of AMD, Lisa Su managed to surprise her world when, as a prelude to Computex 2024 in Taipei (Taiwan), she revealed the launch date of the new generation of Ryzen 9000.
Based on the new Zen 5 micro-architecture, these processors will therefore be marketed in July while most analysts were expecting an announcement for the month of September.
Accelerating AMD’s timeline
Funny thing, this upheaval in the schedule envisaged by all specialists in the sector could shift other ranges of processors, at least at AMD.
Indeed, for the moment, everything suggests that Intel will wait until October to launch Arrow Lake, its chips for desktop PCs. On the other hand, a very recent rumor indicates an even clearer acceleration of AMD’s schedule.
We are no longer talking about the Ryzen 9000, but the X3D versions, these processors equipped with a much beefier cache thanks to the so-called 3D Vertical Cache technology (3D V-cache) which “stacks” the cache chips in order to boost performance, particularly in video games.
Three months between the 9000X and the 9000X3D?
When the previous generation of Ryzen – the 7000 in Zen 4 – was released, AMD waited no less than seven months between the launches of the “X” models and the “X3D” models (with 3D V-cache).
Relayed by our colleagues at VideoCardz, Damien Mason from Club386 indicates that during Computex, several AMD partners raised the possibility of launching X3D in September. Of course, these sources are not AMD, but Club386 considers them “trustworthy.”
The question that arises, however, is whether September will be the month of the actual launch of the X3D processors or simply their announcement by AMD. In the second case, it could be several months before they are actually available.
The fact remains that the rapprochement of the release of X3D processors in relation to and the 9000X3D?

Having fallen into video games at a time when it took a great imagination to see here a football match, there a tank fight in these few bars represented on the screen, I have followed all the developments for forty years. Loyal to the PC, but a fan of all genres, I only have trouble with JRPGs. Otherwise, from the driest turn-based strategy to the most spectacular FPS, including sports simulations or musical games, I can do it all... with a preference for management and games combining several styles. My video game pantheon would consist of three series: Elite, Civilization and Max Payne.
