    AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D listed early as retailers take the plunge
    AMD will present it first Zen5 processor(s) with 3D V cache installed in about a week and a half, specifically on November 7, 2024, but while we still have to wait a bit, some retailers have put their listings online earlier than expected. In each case, the retail listing shows just one Ryzen 9000X3D model, namely the oft-talked about Ryzen 7 9800X3D.
    Speculation is that AMD will announce a single 3D V-cache model first, followed by other SKUs sometime after the initial introduction of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D. Officially, AMD has remained rather quiet on the subject, although it did announce the imminent launch of the X3D on November 7, declaring in a banner image that “next-gen gaming is almost here” while discount up to $50 the price of its regular Ryzen 9000 series processors as part of an early holiday promotion.

    Unofficially, this one model will be the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, if a bunch of leaks and rumors are to be believed. And they should be, given that we can now add some retail listings to the mix. One of the ads is from Inida, a retailer in Lithuania.

    The listing shows the Ryzen 7 9800X3D priced at €557.31 with VAT (21%), which equates to around $603.02 in US currency. Take VAT out of the equation and the converted price drops to around $481. This is probably closer to what we can expect (more on that in a moment).

    There was also a second retail listing (past tense), which has since been removed, but not before the folks at Video cardz could spy details. It comes from PC21.fr, a large French retailer which presented the Ryzen 7 9800X3D at a price of €556.27 including tax and €463.56 excluding tax. In US currency, these values ​​are approximately $601.89 and $501.58, respectively.
    To put these prices into perspective, here are the launch MSRPs and current list prices for non-X3D AMD Ryzen 9000 processors…
    Meanwhile, the previous generation Ryzen 7 7800X3D launched at $449 and currently streets for $476.76 at Amazon. It’s certainly possible that AMD will increase the price of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D from the launch price of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, but we’d be surprised if it was a significant markup, if at all. A $499 US launch seems fitting to us, especially with AMD’s recent holiday promotion price cuts for non-X3D models in play.

    Stay tuned, we will have final confirmation soon.
