The AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 with ASUS ROG Crosshair X870-E Hero & Corsair 32GB VENGEANCE DDR5-6000 Combo from B&H provides a solid base for your gaming and content creation build. The AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 processor fits into the AM5 socket of this ASUS motherboard. There is also 2 x 16GB of Corsair DDR5 RAM for a total of 32GB. With the processor, RAM, and motherboard ready to go, you can focus on the rest of your build, such as the graphics card, storage, power supply, and case.
The AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Dual Edition 4.3 GHz 16-Core AM5 Processor is a CPU designed for AM5 motherboards that instills confidence in your gaming rig's ability to tackle the newest, most graphically intense games and keep a stable framerate.
The 9950X3D2 now features Dual AMD 3D V-Cache technology. This technology is specifically designed to promote high levels of gaming performance by placing the 16 cores and the 192MB of L3 cache close together. Add the 16MB of L2 cache and this CPU has a 208MB total cache. 208MB of cache means more game data, assets, and working data to sit right next to the CPU cores, which reduces latency and provides responsiveness across demanding workflows.
This CPU continues the trend of building upon the stable Zen 5 architecture, but what separates the 9950X3D2 is the 32-thread processing, 4.3 GHz base clock speed, and 5.6 GHz max boosted clock speed. AMD has also unlocked the CPU to make overclocking easier than ever. Connectivity isn't an issue for this CPU either as there is support for NVME, native USB 4, USB 3.2, and PCIe 5.0, so high-end graphics cards, SSDs, and up to 256GB of DDR5-5600 memory can be connected without worry. Integrated AMD Radeon graphics has also been built into the 9950X3D which allows you to do basic tasks and troubleshooting without the presence of a graphics card in your system.
