AMD today lifted the covers off its Ryzen 7 9800X3D Socket AM5 processor powered by the "Zen 5" microarchitecture and 3D V-cache technology. The company did not put out any product specs or other details, except announcing November 7, 2024, as the product availability date for this chip. This would put its launch exactly two weeks from that of Intel's Core Ultra Series 2 "Arrow Lake-S" processors, and give reviewers time to include the performance results of the new Intel chips in reviews of the 9800X3D. AMD is looking to extend its gaming performance leadership which it held with the 7800X3D.

On topic, the wait begins for more price cuts.

Kya discount bhai, chindi - peanuts discount.
The 9950X was priced at 63k, and even if they reduce it by $50, which is around 5k INR, it would still be a costly CPU. Plus, the motherboard and RAM are priced ridiculously high. However, the 7800X3D is a solid choice if you're focusing solely on gaming.

I might think of upgrading if it beats 14th Gen left right and center in performance, power and thermals!

I am willing to wait, in no hurry whatsoever.
We will have to see how they perform and compare with the new Intel. The cost of the board and ram is a given anyways.
 
I have a super tower - Entho Pro II and was planning to build a Water cooling setup but now I feel, it too much hard work for me. If the thermals and performance is good, I will move to Lian Li A3 or a small PC setup.

Full tower*
This is a super tower btw XD
Thermaltake w200 (alleged CaseLabs clone)

These days I feel the same about wanting to move to a compact build.

You took it literally, by the way, have you seen this tower in person. Its huge. Now, I am using a 4080 Super and that is a Z790 Motherboard - Asus Strix in that case.
Looks so small but it isnt, GPU is an 3090Ti Suprix X. I now want 1/4th the cabinet.

Yup, the last piece that was available in October'23 was the one I sent back after arguing with flipkart for not including serial number in the invoice XD. I was looking for a case that could fit three 3090s, gave up on that project and moved to VMs and mid-towers. After seeing multiple sff builds and more case options becoming available, I'm looking to switch when the price settle down...

The 7800X3D is further out of reach now. AMD has jacked up the prices for it/made it harder to get. It's selling for anywhere from 45-48k across all vendors.

I bought my 7800X3D for 36K in September 2023, just for reference.
