Intel's 13th Generation Core processor cache will be greatly increased: to improve gaming performance

At present, for CPUs, the significant performance improvement brought by architecture seems to be a difficult thing, especially when the process is certain. Therefore, instead of increasing the single-threaded performance of the CPU, it is better to use other methods to improve the actual application performance, such as increasing the cache, and the cache is especially important for the performance of the game, so AMD officially announced the Ryzen™ 7 5800X 3D version at CES 2022, which greatly increased the cache capacity, thereby improving the actual game performance, and now there is news that Intel plans to increase the cache in the 13th generation Core processor launched in the second half of this year, thereby improving game performance.

Foreign media said that Intel hopes to be able to further improve the cache of the 13th generation Core processor, the current cache is 44MB, and the 13th generation Core processor will increase by 55% to 68MB, of which the L3 cache reaches 12MB*3 that is, 36MB, and the L2 cache in the P core is different from the E core, where the P core is 2MB L2 cache, the E core cache is higher, 4MB, then the total is about 32MB, and the two add up to 68MB L2+L3 cache. Higher caches allow the processor to process data more generously, improving application performance, especially gaming.

In the past, AMD has performed well in game performance, especially in online game performance, one of the prerequisites is to have a large L3 cache, which is very important for high frame rate games, and now Intel 13th generation Core processors have greatly upgraded the L3 cache, which seems to be more satisfactory in game performance.
