AMD’s next-generation 3D V-Cache flagship, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D, has been tested in the Factoria benchmark, showcasing strong uplifts over 7950X3D.
AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D Flagship 3D V-Cache CPU Shows Strong Uplift In Performance Over 7950X3D, 16 “Zen 5” Cores With X3D
Yesterday, we saw the first reviews of the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU, which has been titled the fastest gaming processor on the planet. While the 9800X3D packs 8 cores, the company is also working on a higher-end X3D variant with double the cores, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D.
As for the specifications, the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D CPU should feature 16 cores and 32 threads arranged in two Zen 5 CCDs. As per previous reports, the chip should retain the same amount of cache as the 7950X3D, which is 64 MB L3 from the CCDs, and a singular 3D V-Cache stack of 64 MB for a total of 128 MB cache. The chip will also feature 16 MB of L2 cache for a 144 MB pool.
Clock speeds and TDPs are unknown, but given what we have seen on the 9800X3D, the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D CPU might also take advantage of the 2nd Gen 3D V-Cache stacking technology & allow for higher clock speeds than the 7950X3D while offering a TDP of 120-170W. The CPU should also feature full overclocking support besides the standard PBO and CO tuning options.
The performance of the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D 3D V-Cache CPU was tested in Factorio where the chip scored 655 UPS. For comparison, the Ryzen 7 7950X3D scores an average of 400 & up to 458 UPS, while the Ryzen 7 9800X3D scores 553.7 UPS on average. This is an improvement of up to…
