AMD may have a Ryzen 5 5500X3D CPU on the way

It appears that AMD is expanding its line-up of 3D V-cache CPUs with the Ryzen 5 5500X3D, breathing new life into the AM4 platform, which has existed for nearly eight years.

KOMACHI_ENSAKA found this processor in an EEC filing from August 6th. Alongside the Ryzen 5 5500X3D, there were many other AMD processors, some already available and others coming out soon (Ryzen 9 9900X and the Ryzen 9 9950X).

This CPU is expected to feature six cores, a base clock of 3.0GHz, a boost clock of 4.0GHz, and 96MB of L3 cache. Comparatively, the 5600X3D has a slightly higher clock speed, making the 5500X3D marginally slower.

There is no word on pricing or availability yet, but we'll be keeping an eye out for more information.

KitGuru says: Do you think there's space in the market for the Ryzen 5 5500X3D? How much would you be willing to pay for this processor?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
