After presenting the AMD Ryzen 7000, the red giant was not going to sit idly by, much less after the trick that the company played in the previous generation with its AMD Ryzen 5800X3D, a processor capable of bringing the performance of the games to a new level. Thus, 5 months after the arrival of the first Ryzen 7000, the company has just presented its new processors for gamers with AMD 3D V-Cache technology: the Ryzen 9 7950X3D, the Ryzen 9 7900X3D and the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. In this article we analyze the first of them, and also the most powerful.

Conclusion: is it worth it?

It must be remembered that this new AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D is compatible with the manufacturer's new AM5 platform and, in fact, if you bought a Ryzen 7000 and want to upgrade to one of the new models, your motherboard, RAM memory and others will serve you perfectly. .

Zen 4 and the magic of AMD 3D V-Cache
The new AMD Ryzen 7000 series presents a significant leap in performance, mainly due to the adoption of AMD Zen 4. We have already seen this architecture when AMD launched this new series of processors on the market, with an architecture that improves IPC by up to 13% compared to Zen 3. In this way, and thanks to the use of 5 nm lithography, it is possible to achieve stock frequencies of up to 5.7 GHz, something never seen before without overclocking.

This new architecture has also allowed AMD to implement its new RDNA2 graphics, perfect for users who do not have a separate graphics card installed in their PC, as well as the ability to install a larger amount of L2 cache on their processors.

Another novelty in Zen 4 has been the arrival of AMD EXPO, the new automatic overclocking system for RAM memory, equivalent to Intel's XMP, which will allow frequencies beyond 6,000 MHz to be achieved, improving system stability and finishing , once and for all, with the memory compatibility problems that AMD was dragging.

To all of the above, 3D V-Cache technology is added to the new AMD Ryzen 7950X3D series. Broadly speaking, this is a technology that implements a vertical cache in the processors implemented to work better with all types of 3D data. Thanks to it, when we run a game on the computer, it can work much faster and more optimized, since the processor can work much more fluidly. In addition, it not only provides advantages within gaming or 3D rendering programs, but also provides great advantages in server environments, where this cache is capable of significantly improving technical computing.
