AMD’s Fastest Gaming CPUs with 3D V-Cache Are Here!

AMD’s latest Ryzen 7000 processors are regarded as some of the most powerful CPUs you can find in the world today. The latest processors come with AMD’s latest Zen 4 architecture that is designed to make the processor respond much faster than before. Thanks to 5nm manufacturing process too, the Ryzen 7000 chips are some of the most efficient processing chips in the world. What could make the processors better? Slapping on 3D V-Cache on it, apparently.

What is 3D V-Cache? It is an important part of this CPU after all. 3D V-Cache makes the chip even faster than before by layering cache pools on top of the processing chiplets by increasing the the memory bandwidth of the CPU. You first see AMD applying the technology on their AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D to good effects.

Now that the new Ryzen 7000 series is here, it is also time for a refresh of the chip with 3D V-Cache technology. Welcome to the Ryzen 9 7950X3D, and Ryzen 9 7900X3D.

The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D is technically based on the current Ryzen 9 7950X processor. It packs 16 cores in its heart, up to 32 threads, and is built upon Zen 4 and 5nm technology. With 3D V-Cache technology, it comes with 144MB of L2 and L3 cache combined. The chip is clocked at 4.2GHz (Base clock) and TDP is rated at 120W, 50W less than the standard Ryzen 9 7950X.

Then there is the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D that is based on the Ryzen 9 7900X. It comes with 12 cores and 24 threads at that. The Zen 4 architecture processor also comes packing plenty of cache memory at 140 MB of L2 and L3 memory. It is also clocked a little slower than the standard processor at 4.4GHz with a similar TDP to the higher end Ryzen 9 7950X3D at 120W.

The AMD Ryzen 7000X3D series of processors are now available in Malaysia. You can get your hands on one via AMD’s authorized retailers across the nation. The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D will set you back MYR 3,299 while the Ryzen 9 7900X3D costs MYR 2,799.
