Summary
AMD has announced it will release two processors classed as X3D next week.
The Ryzen 9 9900X3D and Ryzen 9 9950X3D will cost 599and699, respectively, when they launch on March 12.
This is the recommended retail price, but the chips have actually been appearing on the esteemed selling website, Newegg, for 600and700, respectively.
This suggests that the listing is more of a sale rather than an inflated price due to high demand and low supply.
This theory is reinforced by the fact that AMD advises the chips are aimed at streamers and people whose gaming PCs perform heavy-duty non-gaming work.
This would imply that the chips are aimed at a niche market rather than people who just want a chipset for a gaming PC.
