AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D 12-Core AM5 Desktop Processor

The AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D is a 12-core AM5 desktop processor built around AMD's 2nd-generation 3D V-Cache™ technology, delivering a substantial cache pool that keeps data closer to the cores for consistently high throughput across demanding workloads.

More Cache, More Headroom for Heavy Workloads

• 12 cores / 24 threads handle parallelised tasks — rendering, streaming and compiling — without breaking a sweat
• 4.4 GHz base / 5.5 GHz boost clock ensures snappy single-threaded responsiveness alongside multi-core muscle
• 128 MB of 3D V-Cache dramatically reduces memory latency, benefiting frame rates in CPU-limited games
• Socket AM5 (SAM5) fits current-generation motherboards, keeping upgrade paths open
• 120 W TDP — plan for a capable third-party cooler, as none is included in the box

A strong fit for PC builders who game at high frame rates, run content-creation pipelines, or juggle multiple workloads simultaneously — and want a processor with headroom to grow.
