In a new leak from motherboard manufacturer MaxSun and its new AMD Ryzen AM5 CPU support list, we get a confirmation on some details of the new Ryzen 9000X3D series CPUs. We're learning that the Ryzen 7 9800X3D is launching first, because there's no information on MaxSun's list of AM5 processors -- the 9900X3D and 9950X3D aren't listed.

AMD's new Ryzen 7 9800X3D is listed on MaxSun's AM5 CPU support list with a base frequency of 4.7GHz, 120W TDP, and 96MB of cache (32MB L3 + 64MB 3D V-Cache). We should expect to see a 5.2GHz boost frequency on the 9800X3D, which will be fighting Intel's new Core Ultra 9 285K processor that is right around the corner.
