The latest benchmark of AMD's Ryzen 9 7950X3D 3D V-Cache CPU has been leaked in Geekbench & it beats the Core i9-13900K in multi-threading.
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 3D V-Cache CPU Outperforms The Core i9-13900K In Multi-Threaded Benchmark Tests
The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D is the flagship & the first 16-core CPU to feature 3D V-Cache technology. The chip will incorporate a total of 32 threads, a total of 144 MB cache (64 MB CCD, 64 MB V-Cache + 16 MB L2), and a TDP of 120W. As for the clocks, the chip is rated at a base clock of 4.2 GHz which is 300 MHz slower than the standard 7950X but boost clocks are rated at the same 5.7 GHz. This should give us a hint at why the TDP is 50W lower versus the Non-3D part.
The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D was tested on a Gigabyte X670E AORUS Master motherboard with 32 GB of DDDR5 memory. The CPU can be seen boosting as high as 5.7 GHz within the Geekbench log which is very impressive for a 120W 16-core chip that features a stacked cache design.

The CPU was also tested within the newest Geekbench 6 benchmark but was running at a slightly higher 5.7 GHz+ frequency but here it managed to slip right under the standard 7950X CPU.

In terms of performance, the CPU scored 2271 points in the single-core tests and an insane 24,727 points in the multi-core test which easily puts its ahead of the Intel Core i9-13900K CPU. The Ryzen 9 7950X3D averages around 22.5K points in the multi-core tests which could be due to a different cooling technique and power configurations. The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D comes with PBO & Curve optimizer support too so that should deliver even better performance.
Regardless, the Intel Core i9-13900K can consume upwards of 250W power when running multi-threaded benchmarks. It has 24 cores and 32 threads while the Ryzen 9 7950X3D has 16 cores & also operates at a lower 120W TDP and still manages to sit ahead of the Core i9-13900K.
To get the full performance potential of the Ryzen 7000 X3D CPUs, users must use the latest AMD AGESA 1.0.0.5c BIOS and the newest chipset drivers. The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D and the Ryzen 9 7900X3D are going to launch later this month on the 28th for prices of $699 US and $599 US, respectively.
