We’ve seen Yu’s informative (and entertaining) videos before. Last year, Yu posted a clip to video sharing service Bilibili in which he ran an Nvidia RTX 4090 off the M.2 slot of a RTX 4060 Ti GPU. For the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, he broke out the liquid nitrogen and started putting up eye-catching numbers in Counter-Strike 2.

The new eight-core processor with 3D V-cache is sold out everywhere, and it looks as though stock isn't going to improve any time soon.

It looks like we were right! (Not that it was an earth-shattering achievement of prognostication, to be fair.) As it turns out, AMD’s Ryzen 7 9800X3D is a smash hit right out of the gate, and nearly every major US retailer that sells it — including Amazon, Newegg, Best Buy, and Micro Center — is out of stock one day after the CPU’s launch.

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.

Not only can you save $20 on an AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D with 3D V-cache, but you'll also get 32GB of Corsair Vengeance LPX memory for free.

Good luck getting your hands on the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU — it’s sold out everywhere and scalpers are jacking prices up.
