For the first time, AMD is including its 3D V-Cache tech in its commercial workstation processors with a refreshed line of Ryzen PRO 9000 series chips. Up until now, AMD’s 3D V-Cache chips have mainly been geared toward gamers, but they’ve also gotten better at creative tasks over recent years. In our review of the Ryzen 9 9950X3D last year, Tom Warren crowned it “the best CPU for both gaming and creator tasks,” noting that it “greatly improves creator workloads” compared to the Ryzen 7 9800X3D .
According to AMD, the 3D V-Cache tech will be useful for “complex, data-intensive workloads such as simulation, rendering and real-time visualization.” The expanded Ryzen PRO 9000 series , built on AMD’s Zen 5 architecture, includes chips with 6 to 16 cores and 12 to 32 threads, along with support for up to 256GB of EEC DDR5 memory and support for PCIe 5.0. AMD says only “select” models include the 3D V-Cache. The new chips will start rolling out in the second half of 2026, including the Lenovo ThinkStation P4, which AMD says will launch in Q3 2026.
