AMD's upcoming Ryzen 7 9800X3D full specs revealed: 8C/16T of Zen 5, 120W TDP, next-gen 3D V-Cache, 96MB of L3 cache, and an unlocked multiplier... bring it on.
The specs of the 9800X3D are coming from Geizhals, which is a price comparison tool that European retailers use, listing the new AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D in all its glory. We now know that the 9800X3D will have a 4.7GHz base clock and up to 5.2GHz boost clock, with a 120W TDP and that glorious, uber-special next-gen 3D V-Cache technology.

The listing also shows that the 9800X3D has the same silicon as existing models labeled as "GNR-80" with another note as "Free Multiplier: Yes" which means the 9800X3D has an unlocked multiplier.
That's a big game changer for the 9800X3D processor -- and the other Ryzen 9000X3D series CPUs -- as the previous-gen Zen 4-based Ryzen 7000X3D series processors had locked multipliers... but that's no more with the second-gen 3D V-Cache on the 9800X3D.
