An unannounced AMD Ryzen CPU, the Ryzen 9 Pro 9965X3D, appeared on a shipping manifest. This discovery hints at a potential future product launch.
Analysts speculate AMD prepares a new high-end processor targeting the gaming market. The chip builds on the success of existing X3D CPUs, which feature 3D V-Cache technology to enhance gaming performance.
Details remain scarce. It is currently unclear if the chip will be a refresh of an existing model with higher clock speeds or if it will introduce new technology, such as a rumored dual V-Cache configuration. The unusual naming convention adds to the ongoing speculation.
As this constitutes a product leak rather than an official announcement, there is no market reaction to analyze at this time.
