Motherboard manufacturers beat AMD to the punch confirming Ryzen 7 9800X3D as the first 9000X3D chip to launch next week

It's no secret that AMD Ryzen 9000X3D processors are just around the corner, with a launch date of November 7. But which 9000-series 3D V-Cache processor will be launching has remained an open question, although many have assumed it will be a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, not least because we've seen its leaked performance figures. These assumptions, it seems, are now officially verified, though not by AMD.

It's not AMD but motherboard manufacturers that have let this info slip—or, rather, shouted from the rooftops.
