The latest leak originated from drivers, where it was spotted by Olrak29 and reported by Videocardz.com.

The new Ryzen 7 9850X3D is a faster version of what is one of the best-selling gaming CPUs from AMD, the Ryzen 7 9800X3D. The Ryzen 7 9850X3D is still an 8-core/16-thread SKU with 96MB of L3 cache, same 120W TDP, but faster 4.7GHz base and 5.6GHz CPU Boost clock. Unfortunately, AMD has yet to confirm the price, as it has to fit between the Ryzen 7 9800X3D with $479 MSRP and the Ryzen 9 9900X3D with $599 MSRP.

In addition to the Ryzen 7 9850X3D SKU, AMD is rumored to also bring the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2, a 16-core/32-thread, 192MB L3 cache Dual 3D V-Cache SKU working at 5.6GHz Boost clock.

AMD did not officially announce these two new SKUs, but it is safe to assume that we'll see them at CES 2026.
