In a surprising turn of events, Gigabyte has announced its new X3D Turbo Mode feature for its motherboards. This feature is designed to boost the performance of AMD's Ryzen 7000X3D, Ryzen 9000X3D, and Ryzen 9000 processors by up to 20%—35%. The company said that the X3D Turbo Mode is a set of 'unique optimization parameters' that can tangibly improve the performance of AMD's CPUs.
Gigabyte says the X3D Turbo Mode feature will be available on its AMD X870E, X870, and 600-series motherboards with the F4e BIOS version and AMD's AGESA 1.2.0.2a. The capability reportedly boosts gaming performance by up to 35% for incoming Ryzen 9000X3D CPUs, up to 20% for Ryzen 9000 processors, and by an unknown margin for Ryzen 7000X3D products without clearly specifying the baseline for comparison. Yet, it acknowledges that performance improvement depends on 'processor model and DRAM conditions.'
