AMD's 7800X3D and 7950X3D CPUs reign supreme in the gaming realm, not solely due to their core count or clock speeds, but primarily owing to their abundant cache. CPU cache refers to a small yet ...

The Ryzen 7 9850X3D mostly does what it says it does: It’s a mild speed bump to AMD’s best gaming processor that, in most ...

The development of caches and caching is one of the most significant events in the history of computing. Virtually every modern CPU core from ultra-low power chips like the ARM Cortex-A5 to the ...

Cache isn’t something PC gamers think nearly enough about. At least, that seems to be AMD’s thinking as of late. With the release of 3D V-Cache on the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, though, AMD just proved its own ...

Smooth 4K gaming has been the goal for the majority of high-end PC enthusiasts and PC gamers for years now, and with every generation of new hardware, that goal becomes evermore achievable. Here are ...

To understand the design decisions behind the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, you must understand cache and how it works inside of a processor. Cache is an often underappreciated, yet vitally important, piece of any ...

In a recent hardware deep-dive, we took a look at how CPU cores and cache impacted gaming performance. To do that, we used three Intel Core processors and compared their core scaling performance, ...

Multi-core processors theoretically can run many threads of code in parallel, but some categories of operation currently bog down attempts to raise overall performance by parallelizing computing. Is ...
