AMD, already leading, continues to expand its advantage.

On January 6, at CES 2025 in Las Vegas, AMD made an important announcement, showcasing its latest generation of high-end CPUs and GPUs.

The launch event covered all of AMD's consumer product lines, including the new Ryzen AI Max, Ryzen AI 300, and Ryzen AI 200 CPUs for AI PCs, as well as high-performance chips for gaming desktops, laptops, and handheld gaming systems.

Among these, the 16-core, 32-thread Ryzen 9 9950X3D stood out. It features the latest Zen 5 architecture, combined with AMD's proprietary game acceleration X3D technology, offering 128MB of L3 cache.

AMD stated that this chip can easily outperform Intel's Arrow Lake flagship (Core Ultra 9 285K) by up to 20% in gaming performance; compared to the Ryzen 9 7950X3D, it also provides a significant boost in content creation performance—up by 13%.

However, this comes at the cost of a 50W increase in TDP.

AMD will also release a new Ryzen 9 9900X3D, equipped with 12 cores 24 threads, and 128MB of L3 cache.
