Large L3 cache is one of the standout features of AMD's X3D CPUs, such as the 9800X3D and 9950X3D. It's a big reason why AMD has consistently outperformed Intel in gaming benchmarks. Reviewers usually ...

CPUs have a number of caching levels. We've discussed cache structures generally, in our L1 & L2 explainer, but we haven't spent as much time discussing how an L3 works or how it's different compared ...

I have got something pretty interesting for today's writeup. Infact I don't think anyone has attempted to quantify this particular aspect of processors before, so we will be treading on largely ...

Intel is upping the L3 cache of its next-gen Xeon "Granite Rapids" CPUs with flagship SKUs featuring up to 480MB of L3 cache. Intel's current 5th Gen Xeon "Emerald Rapids" processors were launched in ...

AMD is working on a mysterious dual-cache Ryzen processor, and early benchmarks give us a glimpse of what its bigger L3 cache has to offer. In the current state of PC affairs, those who want to get ...

Use left and right arrow keys to seek audio. AMD's upcoming Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 processor has been recently benchmarked on Geekbench, with more single-core and multi-core performance than the Ryzen 9 ...

Necessity is the mother of invention, and advances in chip packaging are catching up to those in transistor design when it comes to working in three dimensions instead of the much more limited two.

Intel’s upcoming Nova Lake-S processors may retain more L3 cache than previously thought, according to a fresh update from leaker Jaykihn. The revised information says some SKUs created by disabling ...
