9850X3D speculation

I'm expecting launch price to be around 550 like said above, with it coming bundled with about 100 dollars in gaming software for launch. Then after the software is done if sell through isn't quite right they will drop the price to 500 or 499. But that's just me.
 
Sounds reasonable. The value addition with a game didn't cross my mind but that's a good way to blunt the impact of the higher price.
 
I don't think there's enough differnetiation between the 9800x3d and 9850x3d for them to exist at the same time. I would expect the latter to replace the former at about the same price point. If anything, it makes way for a 9700X3d at a lower price point, basically setting up battles against the future 385k/365k chipperies....
 
I wonder if this means the 9950x3dx2 will have a higher base clock as well.

Right?

You'd get a few more points in synthetics, but you're not going to overcome the architectural limitations just by going from 5.25GHz to 5.6GHz. And that's if that new speed is sustainable.
