New gaming announcements from AMD could significantly increase accessibility.
AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D
The Ryzen 7 9850X3D is positioned as the fastest gaming processor, with a 400 MHz higher clock speed. The new product will maintain a TDP of 120 W, but outperforms its predecessor by about 7% in games. In official tests, the chip does not offer significant advantages over other options.
The Ryzen 7 9850X3D has undergone no significant architectural changes, except for an increase in frequency to 5.6 GHz. The chip is equipped with 8 Zen 5 cores and has 16 threads. The total processor cache is 104 MB, with 96 MB located in the shared L3.
AMD Ryzen AI MAX+ 392 and MAX+ 388
Insider information has revealed details about the new Ryzen AI MAX+ 392 and MAX+ 388 processors. The more powerful chip has 24 threads and 12 cores, while the Max+ 388 has 16 threads and 8 cores. AI performance reaches 50 TOPS, the same as the rest of the AI Max+ line. In addition, the company has kept the same configuration with the RDNA 3.5 processor.
For portable gaming devices, the Ryzen AI Max+ 388 will be the better option, due to its 40 CU graphics processor with fewer CPU cores.
Systems with the new Ryzen AI Max+ and Ryzen 7 9850X3D are expected in the first half of 2026.
