4 Reasons Why You Should Get AMD Ryzen CPU with AMD 3D V-Cache Technology (X3D Architecture)
Those who want the best performance and highest efficiency should opt for an AMD Ryzen™ CPU with AMD 3D V-Cache™ tech. Here are four reasons why the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU and it's siblings are the optimal choice for your gaming PC.
Top games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Hogwarts Legacy impose increasingly demanding requirements. Especially if you want to play in 4K with the highest possible FPS and maximum details, it requires adequately powerful components. In addition to an excellent graphics card, the processor is particularly important when it comes to the performance of your gaming PC.
At the same time, we can't ignore the rising overall costs of living that stem from the energy crisis and rampant inflation. A CPU should therefore not only be powerful, but also energy-efficient.
AMD is the pioneer in exactly these two areas – combining performance with energy consumption that's extremely low. The Ryzen 7000 series processor with X3D architecture is specifically designed for these exact needs. The Ryzen 9 7950X3D is a CPU that delivers excellent results in apps and games.
What is AMD 3D V-Cache technology? The technology involves connecting multiple chips and utilizing specific physical forces to keep them together. It allows for an increased amount of L3 cache on the CPU, which enhances gaming performance. This results in extreme power, and thanks to the unique technology, all of this happens without requiring additional cooling.
Overall, AMD Ryzen processors with AMD 3D V-Cache technology deliver outstanding performance while maintaining excellent energy efficiency, making them a top choice for gaming enthusiasts. With these processors, you save electricity and money while still maintaining top-notch performance.
Better energy efficiency
The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU achieves excellent values in terms of power consumption in the GameStar Tech Test. In the above test and according to GameStar, you can see that the CPU only consumes 52 watts when gaming in 4K, while the Intel Core i9 13900K, for example, requires almost double the power, at 100 watts. At the same time, the performance of the Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU in games is also better than that of the Intel CPU.
Overall, the AMD processor achieves an excellent level of energy efficiency thanks to the innovative AMD 3D V-Cache technology.
Higher performance
In games, AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU showcases another strength of the X3D-CPUs. Thanks to the added L3 cache, they’re even more powerful, providing exceptionally high FPS even in blockbuster games according to the benchmark tests ran by GameStar. In the following gaming benchmark by GameStar, the AMD CPU takes a clear lead over Intel's Core i9 13900K.
This highlights the strengths of energy efficiency and the impressively high performance.
Overclocking with AMD Ryzen Master
With AMD Ryzen Master, Ryzen CPU owners get a tool that allows them to easily overclock the processors. With every AMD Ryzen processor, the multiplier comes factory-unlocked. This allows it to be adapted to personal requirements, using the AMD Ryzen Master tool.
With it, you can see all the important information about the CPU's condition, such as temperature, voltage, and clock speed at a single glance. In addition, you have the option to make changes with just a few clicks. Overclocking and taking control of your AMD CPU becomes easier than ever.
NOTE
Overclocking and/or Undervolting AMD processors and memory, including without limitation, altering clock frequencies / multipliers or memory timing / voltage, to operate outside of AMD’s published specifications will void any applicable AMD product warranty, even when enabled via AMD hardware and/or software. This may also void warranties offered by the system manufacturer or retailer. Users assume all risks and liabilities that may arise out of overclocking / undervolting AMD processors, including, without limitation, failure of or damage to hardware, reduced system performance and/or data loss, corruption or vulnerability.

Even more performance with AMD Smart Access Memory Technology
Users of AMD Ryzen CPUs (5000 series or higher) combined with AMD Radeon™ graphics card (6000 series or higher) in their gaming PCs can also take advantage of AMD Smart Access Memory™ technology. With this technology, the CPU is able to use the full memory of the graphics card, instead of only a fraction of it, as usual.
This is designed to give users a performance boost. And that's just from using the AMD CPU and AMD GPU pair.
