This is everything AMD will present during its appearance at CES

One of the most anticipated developments, especially by the gamer public, are the new 9000X3D processors, and after the great reception that the Ryzen 7 9800X3D has had, the company has found it especially difficult to hide that both the Ryzen 9 9950X3D like him Ryzen 9 9900X3D will arrive during the first quarter of this year, 2025. The company, as usual, has done a series of tests comparing its processors against those of the competition and against its previous generation, showing the difference that exists between them.

In the case of the Ryzen 9 9950 158% more performance. On the other hand, when compared with the Intel Core i9 285K, the company shows that its processor is capable of offering an average of 20% more performance, achieving the greatest difference in Watch Dogs: Legion, with 164% more performance than your competitor’s CPU.

The company also highlights that it is not only used for gaming, but also for various applications used by content creators, compared to the 7950X3D, it is 13% faster on average. They have also compared this with the Intel processor, indicating that on average it offers 10% more performance.

Below we leave you a table with the specifications of these two new processors:

Core configuration Maximum frequency Total cache TDP
Ryzen 9 9950X3D 16 cores
32 threads
5.7GHz 144MB 170W
Ryzen 9 9900X3D 12 cores
24 threads
5.5GHz 140MB 120W

HX3D “Fire Range” CPU

One of the big news that has been talked about in the rumors and leaks in recent months was the arrival of a new generation of AMD processors aimed at the mobile sector, that is, for laptops that seek to combine good performance for gaming. with the best to create content. These are the «Fire Range » HX3Dwhich have a configuration that leaves nothing to be desired and that the company plans to launch during the first half of this 2025.

Z2 APU

As with all the processors we have seen before, AMD has taken the capacity they have within the gaming sector very seriously, so they obviously couldn’t help but create a superior version of the APUs currently used by all relevant portable consoles in the world. market, the Z1. Now the company wants to update this range of processors with a new generation, the AMD Ryzen Z2 that will arrive with three different configurations to offer very different systems, and that we will see during the first quarter of 2025that is, very soon.

Like the previous generation, we can find the basic version and the Extreme model, but this time the brand wanted to create one more for much more affordable consoles, the Z2 Go, which will have a very different configuration than the other two models. Below we leave you the details of these new processors:

Ryzen AI

One of the things that has caught the most attention from AMD is the capacity of its Ryzen AI processors. Many people thought that they were going to be the next-generation models that the brand was also going to launch for gaming, but having seen both the Z2 like the HX3D, we know that is not the case. These processors really seek to offer the best artificial intelligence capabilities on the market, and that is why the brand plans to launch various ranges that turn out to be extremely interesting.

Ryzen AI 300

The first processors that we have to talk about are clearly the latest generation of the brand, the Ryzen 300, which as we well know have a few variants already on the market that have managed to become a more than viable option for many systems. But now the company has a series of more advanced models that want to completely dominate the market, and seeing the performance they have, it is more than likely, showing that they far surpass those of Intel.

AMD CES 2025 Ryzen AI Max

In this case, the brand plans to launch two new basic models during the first quarter of this year, the Ryzen AI 7 350 and the Ryzen AI 5 340which shortly after, in the second quarter of the year will have two superior versions, the models Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350 and Ryzen AI PRO 5 340. According to AMD, the new Ryzen AI 7 has on average 30% more performance compared to the Core Ultra 7 258V, so it’s really interesting to see how they will actually perform.

These are its specifications:

Core configuration Maximum frequency Total cache TOPS cTDP
Ryzen AI 7 350 8 cores
16 threads
5GHz 24MB 50 15-54W
Ryzen AI 5 340 6 cores

On the other hand, the company will also present the most anticipated SKUs of these CPUs, the Ryzen AI Maxas well as its variants Max PROin which they highlight that their flagship, the Ryzen AI MAX+ 395, offers much superior performance compared to those of competitors, both Intel and Apple, since they have also compared it against the brand’s M4. And one of the most impressive data is in the comparison they make against the 24 GB RTX 4090, since according to AMD, it has a much higher AI performance, with a TDP that is 87% lower than that of this graph.

GPU

Last, but not least, we also have the latest confirmation of the open secret that we all already knew, the change of Radeon graphics cards, which will be renamed Radeon RX 9000 Series and they will arrive during the first quarter of this year. The brand has indicated two examples so that people can understand them, highlighting that one of the two main objectives for which this change has been made is related to the way of identifying the latest generation products, that is, so that users can know that both the processors and the graphics of the 9000 series are the latest from the brand.

But the second reason, as they indicate, is what we all knew, that people can compare AMD graphics compared to NVIDIA graphics in a much simpler way, which is why from now on, for example, we will be able to find between some of its graphics cards are the RX 9070/RX 9070 XT, as will happen with the RX 9060/RX 9060 XT, and so on with all ranges.

AMD CES 2025 RDNA 4

Obviously with the arrival of this name change so do the graphics that we have mentioned, and therefore the long-awaited architecture. RDNA 4which will use a 4nm process with optimized CUs, designed to address all the challenges related to AI, improving Raytracing for each CU and offering a superior experience by also improving the quality of multimedia encoding.

But what we cannot forget is the FSR4 (ML-powered), designed for this architecture with the aim of offering high-quality 4K upscaling, with better performance when combined with frame generation and with reduced latency thanks to AMD ANTI-LAG 2.
