Intel was a dominant leader in the CPU market for the better part of a decade, but AMD has seen massive success in recent years thanks to its Ryzen chips.

The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is the best gaming processor currently on the market and a much better option than the new Intel Core Ultra 9 285K. If you're waiting for a discount on this processor for Black Friday, though, don't hold your breath. It's very unlikely the price will drop before the end of the year.

AMD parades its new Ryzen 9 AI HX 370 in its own gaming benchmarks, where it seems to wipe the floor with the Intel Core Ultra 7 258V.

AMD released benchmarks on Thursday showing that its own Ryzen AI 300 chip destroys Intel's latest Lunar Lake chip in gaming.

AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is the first X3D CPU in the latest Ryzen 9000 series to break cover and will go on sale starting November 7.

AMD has dominated PC gaming CPU performance for more than two years. Its X3D chips have provided a boost that Intel has been unable to match, and its new $479 Ryzen 7 9800X3D goes a step further to not only improve gaming performance but also day-to-day tasks and creative workloads.

Pictures of the burned chips appeared on Reddit and QuasarZone in the past couple of days. Both CPUs are Ryzen 7 9800X3Ds, the model that has been rocking the CPU landscape with its out-of-the-gate performance and overclock ability.
