Last year AMD launched Ryzen 7 5800X3D, to apply the long-awaited 3D V-Cache technology to actual products, that is, to install more cache memory on the processor in a stacked manner. Great help. It’s a pity that AMD mightn’t make the 5800X3D’s clock speed catch up with the original 5800X at that time, and this shortcoming also had a negative impact on some reviewers’ evaluations of it. Now, it looks like AMD has solved (most of) the above problems.
At today’s CES, AMD showed three Ryzen 7000 series CPUs with 3D V-Cache, including the 8-core Ryzen 7 7800X3D, whose L2 and L3 caches add up to 104MB; Take the Ryzen 9 7900 X3D with 140MB of memory; and the most powerful of them all, the Ryzen 9 7950X3D with 12 cores and up to 144MB of cache memory. It is worth noting that although the basic clock speed is a little bit worse than that of the 7900X, the maximum clock speed of the 7950X3D and 7900X3D can reach 5.7GHz and 5.6GHz respectively, at least not like the 5800X3D. of.
How much performance the new processor can improve will not be known until it is actually launched, but for many players who pursue extreme performance, the specifications of a large amount of cache memory will still be of great interest to them. They’ll hit shelves in February, but there’s no pricing information yet.
AMD finally completed the entire CES in this CES Ryzen 7000 series, in addition to the 7950X3D mentioned above, non-X series processors include the 12-core Ryzen 9 7000, priced at US$429; the 8-core Ryzen 7 7700, priced at US$329; and the 6-core Ryzen 5 7600 , priced at US$229, these processors are 65W TDP, they will be listed on January 10.
