AMD could be about to release a new CPU that's faster than the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, if this latest benchmark leak is to be believed. A new model with the name "AMD Ryzen 7 9700X3D" has appeared on the PassMark benchmark site, showing the chip has a higher clock speed and a higher score than AMD's current top choice for gaming.
