haciendo de esta una posible respuesta al rendimiento de juego del i9-12900KS 7 9800X3D Has the CCD on Top of the 3D V-cache Die, Not Under it


Much of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D teaser material from AMD had the recurring buzzwordsX3D Reimagined,” causing us to speculate what it could be. 9550pro, una fuente confiable con fugas de hardware, says that AMD has redesigned the way the CPU complex die (CCD) and 3D V-cache die (L3D) are stacked together. In past generations of X3D processors, such as the 5800X3DVermeer-Xand the 7800X3DRaphael-X,” the L3D is stacked on top of the CCD. It would stack above the central region of the CCD that has the on-die 32 MB de caché L3, while blocks of structural silicon would be placed on top of the edges of the CCD that have the CPU cores, with these structural silicon blocks performing the crucial task of transferring heat from the CPU cores to the IHS above. This is about to change.

If the leaks are right, AMD has inverted the CCD-L3D stack with the 9000X3D series such that the “Zen5” CCD is now on top, the L3D is below it, under the central region of the CCD. The CPU cores now dissipate heat to the IHS as they do on regular 9000 series processors without the 3D V-cache technology. The way we imagine they achieved this is by enlarging the L3D to align with the size of the CCD, and serve as a kind ofbase tile.The L3D would have to be peppered with TSVs that connect the CCD to the fiberglass substrate below. We know where AMD is going with this in the future. Ahora mismo, the L3Dbase tilecontains the 64 MB 3D V-cache that gets appended to the 32 MB on-die L3 cache, but in the future (probably withZen 6”), AMD could design the CCDs with TSVs even for the per-core L2 caches.

This piece of speculation also perfectly explains whatX3D boost” could be. With the CCD making direct contact with the IHS the way it is in non-X3D processors, the X3D processors could have the same overclocking capabilities as the regular chips. There are much fewer thermal hurdles in the way, and AMD can go ahead and give these chips the same TDP and PPT values as regular chips, as well as higher clock speeds. The company used to be conservative with the PPT and clock speeds of its X3D processors in the past.

AMD is expected to launch the Ryzen 7 9800X3D on November 7, 2024.
