so it wasn't just marketing. With the Zen 4 versions of the Ryzen 9 chips, it's taking a different approach by having two chiplets. One chiplet has the V-Cache on it, and the other doesn't. Theoretically, this allows a best-of-both-worlds scenario. Apps that don't benefit from ...
Now AMD has released 3D V-Cache versions of its modern Ryzen 7000 CPUs, expanding to three different SKUs: the 8-core $449 Ryzen 7 7800X3D (launching April 6), 12-core$599 Ryzen 9 7900X3D, and the flagship$699 Ryzen 9 7950X3Dwe’re testing today. (The Ryzen 9 7900X3D and ...
Although the generational improvement isn’t as stark, it’s still close. And AMD is still providing a sizable boost in performance over current-gen flagships. My only hesitation recommending the Ryzen 9 7950X to gamers is that we know 3D V-Cache versions are on the way. Depending on whe...
AMD’s Ryzen 7000 series of Zen4 processorsarrived to intensify the battle between the most powerful offerings in the market so far. Superceded by the 7950X and overshadowed by the 3D Cache versions that many believe are released to suplant these CPUs,the Ryzen 9 7900X ...
It's worth noting before we get into test results that there are important performance improvements to be had with newer BIOS versions that have AGESA 1.0.0.5 that AMD released recently. Best Deals: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 16-Core, 32-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor Today7 days ago30 days ago...
