Current estimate is summer next year for Zen 6, Early 2027 at the very very latest, Leaves a decent amount of time for even more Zen 5 sales to saturate the market.

It will be interesting to see if there is much of a benefit having more than 96MB of L3 cache. Or how much the gap between X3D and non-X3D will narrow when standard CPUs have 48MB.

L3 Cache is extremely expensive in context of die area required for it. So compared to the X3D we (obviously) will see less total cache but at the same time it likely will be faster cache, since it is on die rather than through their infinity fabric. That's the trade off between the two. Latency vs quantity.
