AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT “RDNA 3” Graphics Card To Pack 20 GB GDDR6 Memory

Sounds like AMD will not be releasing their full fat Navi 31 similar to Nvidia not releasing their full fat AD102

AMD Ryzen 7000 X3D “Zen 4 3D V-Cache” CPUs To Be Unveiled at CES 2023

Realistically, this is what Ryzen 7000 users should be waiting for

RX 7900XT only coming with 20GB is pretty surprising to me. Maybe this will just be an RX 7900 non-XT, similar to the RX 6700 non-XT coming with just 10GB

And yes, for gamers, the Ryzen 7000 X3D will be the one they should buy. By then, the platform should also be cheaper with the B650 boards and lower DDR5 RAM prices, offsetting the higher price for the X3D version at least somewhat. For other users however, the extra cache is doing pretty much nothing, so no need to pay the higher price for the X3D version.

I don't think the workstation argument makes sense considering Intel is offering 8 extra e-cores against 7600x/7700x at a similar price point. The 13900k can also out perform the 7900x in workstation but the power that thing requires starts to really come into affect due to it's 16 extra e-cores. So for Ryzen 7000, 7900x and 7950x starts to make sense for content creation workloads. Otherwise people are simply spending a lot of money just to be slower in almost every workload. Sometimes by 30-50% depending on the workload. Not to mention, Intel has Z690 boards which has PCI-E 5 for GPU for the price of B650 boards and imo, no one should be "upgrading" to PCI-E Gen 4 a motherboard since that's last gen tech which AM4 has.

Ryzen 7000 simply doesn't make any sense for sub 7900XT users against Intel.
