That's a significant frequency drop at 300 to 400mhz lower. Wonder if will actually be where they fall, or if they auto body higher than stated. The 5500x3D would make for some interesting budget builds.

Time to upgrade. This 5600x just isn't cutting it anymore.
wtf
I don't like those lower clocks, we'll have to see benchmarks to see if they're going to be worth it over a standard 5700X.
This would be epic. AM4 Uber alles.
AM4 is the newer version LGA775.
Imagine going from something like Pentium 4 to Core 2 Quad Q9650 or Xeon X3380 (native LGA775 without need for mod).
That is the equivalent of going from 1st/2nd gen Ryzen to 5xxx X3D chip. It is possible that systems with B350/X370 boards might last for a decade of gaming.
400 mhz lower boost across all cores would likely make the 7700x3d hard to justify vs 7700x. Frequency matters too.
Confusing but, I guess if they’re getting enough defects they might as well not waste the expensive 3D vcache
they know zen3D sells like hell so might aswell sell whats leftover of zen3D
they also better release 5600X3D worldwide.
They didn't have the stock for that, and 5600X3D wasn't really going to be a thing until Microcenter found out that AMD had all these processors and struck a deal to buy them all from AMD. AMD whipped up the 5600X3D and shipped it to MC.
ah ffs, literally just got the 5700x
If you were in the market for an 8-core X3D, why didn't you buy the existing 8-core X3D?
5700x gets you most of the perf of the 5800x at a much more reasonable TDP and operating temp. X3D benefits aside, you have one of the most efficient 8 core desktop CPUs currently on the market.

I‘d have loved to see a 7600X3D, but more AM4 ig
Am4 = best platform in recent years
This is a shot in Intel's ass 😂😂😂 If so I'm going to buy mine
Now if they could make a 5850X3D, which has the same specs as the 5800X3D but could boost to 5Ghz...

At this pace I think that I'll be using AM4 for at least 10 more years
If these do indeed exist and are any good, there's a very good chance that the AM4 X3D family becomes the Sandy Bridge of this generation for gaming, giving you a ridiculously long run in that regard for pretty much a budget price since decent B550 boards cost like a third of a B650.

More like LGA775. Going from Pentium 4 to QX9770 was probably the same level of boost like going from 1/2 gen ryzen to 5xxx X3D.
It is probably exclusive to chinese or US market if it is real. RIP everyone else. Oh well.
Alright, well time to move on from my ol 5600x. It's served me well lol
If they have enough "broken" 5800X3Ds to still release 2 new SKUs after 5600X3D, why did they limit the release of 5600X3D to only Microcenter? Or was 5600X3D a Microcenter-only product to test if there was enough demand? As a European I really want to see these cheaper 5000X3D CPUs here.
the clock speed on the 5600x3d is higher than ether of these, that may be part of it. but i do suspect it was to test the waters too

Launching the 5600x3d was always about controlling the price of 5800x3d. AMD did the same thing with the GRE series - the 7900 GRE was launched to halt the slide of 7900XT prices. And now that too has a bunch of volume after all.
I said that when it was originally launched and people got real upset but there was never a stream of defective 6c dies to begin with, stacking happens after binning so they know it’s defective or not, and failures during stacking isn’t really a real thing that leaves you with any amount of functional cores. But people leaned on the microcenter dude saying it was a yield sku.
Nor is it a failure of clocks etc. AMD doesn’t have any 6c zen3d epyc SKUs. They do have 2c and 4c stacks but they only made 6c stacks for the 5600x3d in the first pla - it was literally manufactured from scratch for the 5600x3d.
People are dumb and put way too much faith in marketing statements.

I still can't figure out if it's worth upgrading 5800x to 5800x3d
I have a 5900x and I think, I don't even need a 5x00x3d cpu! such a great generation of cpus.

as long as it is a wider, if not a regular release. I'd be happy for at least a 5700X3D to come our shores.
Serious question, what is the point of the 5700X3D? The 5800X3D can already be had for under $300. I just don't see the point of slotting in yet another SKU between the 5600X3D and 5800X3D.

If they do a 5900X3D I might just nut.
5500X3D? Hmmmm, I might upgrade my 3600xt at work.
lol the pic says "XD"
I wonder how would it perform in am4 platform if they try to make a new gen CPU on 4nm architecture? Who knows, maybe there is even some room for more IPC improvements?
So...it's a rumor so this question is only relevant "if true" I guess.
Could this (again, assuming it's true) mean anything significant about TSMC advanced node production capacity? Or could it simply mean AMD's not using up the wafer allotments they have and this may be a way to do so without selling them to competition.
AMD trying to sell the trash bin again
Damn… well still happy with my 7700x purchase
member when everyone got real upset when I said that 5600X3D wasn’t some particular stream of downbins or failures and everyone got mad because the AMD rep had said it was some unique deal to get rid of failed yields
Kinda funny how they apparently decided to launch a bunch of mass-market parts on similar lines
It was always about controlling the downward slide of 5800x3d prices and indeed we have seen 5800x3d prices bounce back upwards. Same thing they did with launching the 7900GRE to control 7900XT prices from getting too low.
Another microcenter exclusive????
Wow, if the 5700X3D chip is 65W part I might get one. I've loved my 5800X3D since last December when I got it. Such a great chip!
Interesting
