The leaks turned out to be fake
Recent benchmark leaks hinted at the upcoming AMD Ryzen 7 9700X3D processor. However, a new social media post has set the record straight: such a chip does not exist, and the test results were fabricated through Linux. The author reminded gamers that single benchmarks should not be trusted — data must be verified before making conclusions.
AMD and the 3D V-Cache lineup
AMD has already released several models with 3D V-Cache, and the recently introduced Ryzen 7 9800X3D continues this series, setting new standards for gaming PCs.
Rumors about the Ryzen 7 9700X3D were not confirmed. While AMD previously released the Ryzen 7 5700X3D, there is still no equivalent version for the Ryzen 7000 lineup.
How the fake benchmark was created
On Reddit, user A_Canadian_Boi explained how he created a fake PassMark benchmark for the Ryzen 7 9700X3D. He simply edited the /proc/cpuinfo file in Linux, causing PassMark to detect a regular Ryzen 7 9700X as the 9700X3D. The utility didn’t notice the trick and added the test to the public database.
The fake benchmark showed frequencies higher than those of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, although inflating the numbers wasn’t difficult. The author emphasizes that the intention was not to deceive anyone.
