ASROCK officially confirms unreleased AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 CPU

AMD hasn’t unveiled it, but that hasn’t stopped ASRock

AMD has not revealed this CPU, but ASRock has. ASRock has issued a press release confirming that its motherboards “fully support” AMD’s Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 CPU. This processor promises “more cache than ever” and “higher gaming performance” for users.

Videocardz were the first to spot this press release. Right now, AMD has not officially unveiled this CPU. However, rumours of its existence have circulated since October 2025.

While ASRock has not disclosed the specifications of this CPU, rumours suggest that both CCDs feature AMD’s 3D V-Cache technology. This gives the processor 192 MB of L3 cache. That’s more than any other consumer-grade AMD Ryzen CPU. Today’s Ryzen 9 9950X3D features one CPU CCD with L3 V-Cache, providing 128MB of total L3 cache.

ASRock has stated that its motherboards with their 4.03 AM5 BIOS will support AMD’s new X3D2 CPU. This CPU should be AMD’s fastest gaming processor. That said, it is unknown how fast this CPU will be compared with AMD’s existing Ryzen 9000X3D gaming CPUs. Will the extra L3 cache deliver a notable gaming boost when it’s on the CPU’s second CCD?
