The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D with eight cores on one chiplet already appeared at the end of last year. From today, the new Ryzen 9 processors of the X3D series with two chiplets are also available. The Ryzen 9 9950X3D for 769 euros and the Ryzen 9 9900X3D for 659 euros are characterized by the fact that an additional 3D V-Cache is mounted under one of the CPU chiplets. This is intended to enable faster processing of numerous small processes, among other things. Processors with V-Cache can therefore feel a tick smoother in operation, which enthusiasts like to refer to as increased "swooshiness".
;) AMD Ryzen 9 9900 and 9950 X3D: 12 and 16 Zen 5 Cores with V-Cache In the two new models, only one of the two eight-core dies on the package is equipped with additional L3 cache. Due to the heat development, the "cached" die cannot be clocked as high as the second die without additional cache. Depending on the application, one die or the other can be more advantageous. The twelve-core processor AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D also has a 6+6 core configuration, which is why the additional L3 cache stack can only accelerate six cores. Whether an application or a game ultimately runs on the die with or without V-Cache must be decided by the operating system itself - which can be suboptimal. The smaller Ryzen 7 9800X3D with only one die + V-Cache does not have this problem. With a MSRP of 529 euros, it therefore remains the best choice for multimedia users if "swooshiness" for the interface is primarily required and the computing work is otherwise mostly left to a GPU anyway. First tests have been available on various websites since yesterday, for example here: www.computerbase.de/artikel/prozessoren/amd-ryzen-9-9950x3d-test.91531/seite-3#. The new AMD processors are particularly convincing in multi-core applications due to their high number of cores.  more infos at bei www.computerbase.dedeutsche Version dieser Seite: AMD Ryzen 9 9900 und 9950 X3D - 12 und 16 Zen5-Kerne mit V-Cache |
