At CES2022 at the beginning of the year, AMD brought many new products including mobile processors, desktop processors, graphics cards, etc., and also previewed a wave of the first desktop processor using 3D V-Cache cache stacking technology - Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D, and officially released this processor in the middle of last month. Compared with the Ryzen 7 5800X, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D itself has a 32MB L3 cache, on this basis, the 64MB cache is further stacked and encapsulated through 3D V-Cache technology, the L3 cache is expanded to 96MB, plus the 4MB L2 cache, the total cache capacity reaches 100MB, and the official release of it and the regular version of the game test comparison score, have a good lead.
According to XanxoGaming's test results, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D has a certain gap with the Core i9-12900K in the CPU-Z, Geekbench and other comprehensive tests, but its large cache can indeed help it beat the Core i9-12900K in the game test. In the Geekbench test, the processor scored 1639 points for a single core and 10948 for multiple cores, which is a little lower than the regular version of the Ryzen™ 7 5800X. In the CPU-Z test, its single-core and multi-core scores were 617 and 6505, respectively, and the gap with the Core i9-12900K was very obvious, Cinebench R23 test, Ryzen 7 5800X3D single-core score of 1493 points, multi-core score of 15060 points.
In gaming tests, the Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D was paired with DDR4-3200MHz memory and RTX 3080Ti, while the Core i7-12900K used DDR5-4800MHz memory and RTX 3090Ti.
In order to reduce the dependence on the graphics card, the game chose a low resolution of 720P and increased shadow detail, which would be a greater test for CPU performance. In the end, the average frame rate of the Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D reached 231, compared to 190 for the Core i9-12900K, which was about 21.6% ahead.
Judging from the current test results, the blessing of 3D V-Cache technology, although the theoretical performance has not changed much, has achieved a very good improvement in game performance, even surpassing the Core i9-12900K, of course, I think more games are needed to verify this. XanxoGaming said he has completed testing 11 games at 1080P resolution, and the results should be announced in the coming days, and we can expect a wave.
