AMD Ryzen 7000X3D series processors will have new retail packaging
AMD released a number of new products at this year’s CES 2023 conference, the most notable of which is the Ryzen 7000X3D series processor with 3D V-Cache technology. Unlike the previous generation, which only had Ryzen 7 5800X3D, this time AMD launched Ryzen 9 7950X3D, Ryzen 9 7900X3D, and Ryzen 7 7800X3D in one go. The TDP of the three processors is 120W.
According to TechPowerup, the Ryzen 7000X3D series processors will adopt a new retail packaging design, which is different from the existing Ryzen 7000 series processors. The new packaging has a larger area of orange, the tone is brighter, and there is a silver area on the upper left, highlighting its “AMD 3D V-Cache technology”. This is different from the previous Ryzen 7 5800X3D route. Its retail packaging is too similar to other products, and its recognition is relatively low.
Compared with the current Ryzen 7000 series processors, the L3 cache of Ryzen 9 7950X3D and Ryzen 9 7900X3D has increased from 64MB to 128MB, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D’s L3 cache increased from 32MB to 96MB, both increased by 64MB. This means that even in the dual CCD model, only one CCD is added with SRAM.
This year, AMD is likely to launch an APU code-named “Phoenix Point” on the AM5 platform, with 8 cores and 16 threads, and an RDNA 3 architecture GPU with 12 CUs. There may also be a different new retail packaging design to differentiate. AMD has stated that although the Ryzen 7000 series processors have been equipped with integrated graphics as standard, they will still launch APUs on the desktop platform. The powerful integrated graphics make it different for user groups.
