AMD has reportedly postponed the release of the Ryzen 9000X3D processors with 3D V-Cache tech. The new CPU is expected to drop next year at the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), a big delay from the earlier rumors of a late 2024 launch.

But this is just a rumor and should be taken with caution. Even well-known leaker HXL isn’t sure if the new CPU will actually appear at CES next year. Still, a launch at the annual Consumer Electronics Show, which is the biggest tech show in the world, would make sense for AMD’s new high-performance product.

If the rumors are true, gamers waiting for the new 3D V-Cache processors will have to wait a little longer for the performance boost they wanted. The AMD Ryzen 9000 "Zen 5" chips made quite a splash when released, but many gamers felt let down, as they didn’t perform as well as hoped. It remains to be seen if the new 9000X3D chips will bring better performance upgrades.

Interestingly, there's a rumor that AMD will also delay the launch of its B850 and B840 chipsets to CES 2025. This suggests AMD might want to release the B800-series chipsets together with the Ryzen 9000X3D. If true, a CES launch would allow AMD to show off its full lineup of new AM5 platform products, giving them a chance to enhance the performance and features of their products.

There hasn’t been any official word from AMD about these highly awaited 3D V-Cache processors. So, we should expect more info to come out as time passes, since it’s still unclear how true the leaked info or rumors are.
