AMD seems confused about overclocking support for the Ryzen 7000X3D series.
Will AMD unlock OC for Ryzen 7000X3D or is this another mistake?
AMD product pages can sometimes be quite misleading. A page about the Ryzen 7000X3D already made news earlier this month when AMD updated it with a February 14 launch date, but later confirmed it was a mistake. We still don’t know when exactly AMD plans to launch these CPUs in a few weeks, but the product page is still being updated.
As a result, AMD listed the Ryzen 7000X3D with overclocking support. All three upcoming SKUs are now listed as ‘.Unlock Overclocking: Yes”. This generally means that the CPU will support base clock overclocks, just like the rest of the Ryzen 7000 series released to date.

So far, AMD has confirmed that it will support automatic overclocking via its Precision Boost Overdrive technology. The 7000X3D series also supports Curve Optimizer. These features, which will undoubtedly improve the fine-tuning options of the 7000X3D series, were not enabled on the Ryzen 7 5800X3D with Zen3 3D V-Cache technology.
The company has so far not mentioned direct overclocking support for the Ryzen 7000X3D, which is why this update to the product page is highly likely. Other mistake.
Officially, the Ryzen 7000X3D series will launch in February, but AMD has yet to confirm pricing and release dates. There were too many mistakes prior to this release, so maybe it would be better to release sooner.
