ASUS might've given us a tease of AMD's Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs featuring Zen 5 cores and 3D V-Cache technology ahead of their official unveiling.
ASUS recently revealed several X870E & X870 chipset motherboards, which included all different sub-series but what went unnoticed is the hidden mention of Ryzen 9000X3D chips. The first four Ryzen 9000 CPUs have already been launched a few days ago, which we have covered in detail in our reviews but the new information sheds light on Ryzen 9000X3D with 3D V-Cache technology.
Since AMD took great interest in producing X3D versions of its existing Zen 3 and Zen 4 CPUs, X3D chips in the Ryzen 9000 series based on Zen 5 shouldn't surprise us. It was Momomo_US, who first saw the Ryzen 9000X3D listing by going through the source code of the ASUS microsite page for its latest motherboards.

On further investigation by ComputerBase, the page description in the source code says,

However, the launch or the availability of the processors hasn't been revealed yet nor AMD has talked about these processors. With 3D V-Cache technology, Ryzen 9000 CPUs will get additional L3 cache onboard, which will provide significant performance uplifts in video games. This has been the case with the previous generation processors as well and to this day, AMD hasn't stopped releasing newer 3D CPUs for Zen 3 and Zen 4 lineups.
A few days ago, Ryzen 5 5500X3D appeared in the EEC filing, and just yesterday, a leak mentioned that AMD is
