A ‘revolutionary’ Turbo Mode promises up to 35% faster gaming on Ryzen chips

By Luke Larsen Published October 18, 2024

The Ryzen 9 9950X socketed in a motherboard.

Ryzen 9000 hasn’t been the surefire hit AMD fans were hoping for. Enthusiasts are still waiting for the X3D chip in the line, but Gigabyte has already announced a new X3D Turbo Mode for its motherboards that supposedly delivers between 20% and 35% better gaming performance.

Gigabyte calls it a “revolutionary BIOS feature” that’s designed to improve performance for X870E, X870, and 600 series motherboards that can boost the Ryzen 7000X3D and Ryzen 9000 series processors.

Perhaps the most fascinating nugget from Gigabyte’s press release is mention of an “incoming Ryzen 9000 X3D” processor, which will receive the largest performance benefit of up to 35% and is already being anticipated to be among the best processors you’ll be able to buy when it eventually launches. The non-X3D Ryzen 9000 chips will get a lower 20% performance boost. Gigabyte notes that the X3D Turbo Mode ups the Ryzen 9000 chips to “achieve similar gaming performance levels as their Ryzen X3D counterparts.”

Gigabyte didn’t, however, mention the exact performance boost that would be offered to the Ryzen 7000X3D processors. As Tom’s Hardware notes, Gigabyte also doesn’t explain how exactly its new Turbo Mode works, instead referring to it as “wizardry.”

The promise of the faster performance is enticing, though, and hopefully improves the value of AMD’s Ryzen 9000 chips. AMD itself offered a 17% boost to performance on these processors a couple of months after their launch, and Gigabyte’s Turbo Mode could enhance performance even more. More than anything, confirmation of the “incoming” Ryzen 9000X3D chips was enough to get my attention.

Gigabyte says the X3D Turbo Mode is available in the latest beta BIOS release now, so you can go check out the performance gains for yourself.

5 CPUs you should buy instead of the Core Ultra 9 285K

The Core Ultra 9 285K socketed into a motherboard.

The Core Ultra 9 285K arrived with a thud. It's an interesting, and sometimes very impressive, processor, but it's not necessarily a good one. Stacked up against some of the best processors, the Core Ultra 9 285K struggles in gaming and even falls behind in critical productivity apps, which isn't a great start for Intel's latest generation.

Thankfully, there are some excellent alternatives. I've reviewed just about every CPU that Intel and AMD have released in the past several generations, and I've rounded up five processors that match, and often beat, the Core Ultra 9 285K -- sometimes even for a lower price.

AMD CPUs just got a major performance update for games

AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D installed in a motherboard.

Major motherboard brands are gearing up for the release of AMD's upcoming Ryzen 9000X3D processors with BIOS updates that add support for the new CPUs. Alongside support, some brands, such as Gigabyte and Asus, have added an "X3D Turbo Mode," which is said to boost performance by up to 35%.

The update is targeting some of the best processors packing AMD's 3D V-Cache tech, but it might give other AMD processors a boost, too. One user on X (formerly Twitter) took the update out for a spin in Forza Horizon 5 and found a 5% uplift on the Ryzen 7 9700X. That's a far cry from the 35% we've seen quoted by Gigabyte, but it's a promising performance improvement nonetheless considering that this CPU doesn't come with 3D V-Cache.

I tested the Core Ultra 9 285K against the Ryzen 7 7800X3D — and it’s ugly

Fingers holding an Intel 285K.

Intel's new Core Ultra 9 285K is finally here, promising a boost in performance with a significant reduction in power requirements, at least according to Intel. As you can read in my Core Ultra 9 285K review, Intel's performance claims aren't as rosy as reality, especially when stacked up against what is unequivocally the best processor for gaming you can buy: AMD's Ryzen 7 7800X3D.

I threw both processors on the test bench to pit them head-to-head, looking at performance across productivity and gaming apps, as well as thermals and efficiency. These CPUs target different users, but there are still a lot of interesting comparisons we can look at between them.
