16 cores, 144 MB cache and 5.7 GHz frequency. AMD’s Most Advanced Processors – Ryzen 9 7950X3D and Ryzen 9 7900X3D – Now Available8

The 8-core Ryzen 7 5800X3D has proven to be AMD’s golden goose, with the CPU having been a hit in Europe and the US for weeks. And now AMD has got reinforcements – the latest Ryzen 9 7950X3D and Ryzen 9 7900X3D have gone on sale.

16 cores, 144 MB cache and 5.7 GHz frequency.  AMD's Most Advanced Processors - Ryzen 9 7950X3D and Ryzen 9 7900X3D - Now Available8

As of today, the Ryzen 9 7950X3D is not only AMD’s most advanced processor, but also its most expensive. Its cost is 700 dollars – and this is in the USA, and in Europe the CPU is sold for 790-800 euros.

There are 16 cores, 144 MB of cache (second and third levels in total), a maximum frequency of 5.7 GHz (for a chiplet without 3D V-Cache cache) and a TDP of 120 watts. Judging by the tests, in games its performance is approximately at the level of the Core i9-13900K, but the consumption is significantly lower.

The 12-core Ryzen 9 7900X3D, with the same TDP of 120W, has less cache (140MB) and has a slightly lower maximum frequency of 5.6GHz. The price is $600 in the US. AMD did not send out this CPU for reviews on the eve of the start of sales, so it is difficult to say something about the performance of this model relative to Intel CPUs.

I must say that by the time the sales of these two new products started, the usual AMD Ryzen 7000X processors had fallen significantly in price. So, the Ryzen 9 7950X is already offered in the US for $575 instead of $700 at the start of sales, and the 12-core Ryzen 9 7900X has dropped from $600 to $450. In a month, the most affordable processor in the line, the 8-core Ryzen 7 7800X3D, for $450 should be released. And it will be interesting to see if it becomes as popular as the Ryzen 7 5800X3D.

The device uses 232-layer Micron memory and a Phison controller. Retail options will come with 1, 2 and 4 TB of flash memory. Interestingly, the T700 will have both a version with a heatsink (with advanced fins and no noisy fan) and a regular version without any cooling. One of the materials demonstrates very well what a cooling system is.

GeForce RTX 3050 which you can always take with you

ADLink has expanded its range with an unusual device called Pocket AI. This is a portable video card in a very compact package.

Technically, this is a stripped-down mobile GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop, that is, we are talking about 2048 CUDA cores and 4 GB of memory, but the bus is halved to 64 bits.

At the same time, TGP is only 25 watts. True, despite this, the device still requires a power connection, although almost any charger with USB Power Delivery 3.0+ support will do here. Connection to a PC is implemented via Thunderbolt 3.

The dimensions of the novelty are 106 x 72 x 25 mm with a weight of 250 g, that is, you can easily take a 3D card with you if necessary.

The price is still unknown, and sales will begin in June.

Among the Radeon RX 7900 and GeForce RTX 40 there

All the latest news regarding the reduction in the price of AMD video cards concerned the latest RX 7900 models. Meanwhile, the previous generation sometimes looks more attractive. For example, the Radeon RX 6950 XT is currently on sale for just $656!

Among the Radeon RX 7900 and GeForce RTX 40, there is no such offer.  Radeon RX 6950 XT sells for just $656

Apparently, this is the lowest price (or one of the lowest) for such an adapter since the release. Recall that the RX 6950 XT initially started at $1,100.

For $ 656 they give the XFX Speedster Merc 319. But this is in the USA, that is, the price is excluding taxes. In Europe, the cheapest option already with taxes is given for 720 euros, and this is the Sapphire Nitro card.

According to AMD itself, the RX 7900 XT is only 5-7% faster than the RX 6950 XT. At the same time, the cheapest RX 7900 XT will now cost $ 800. The GeForce RTX 40 line also does not offer similar price-performance ratios, since the RTX 4070 Ti will cost at least the same $ 800.
