AMD Rumored to Bring 3D V-Cache to Next-Gen Ryzen APUs and Threadripper CPUs

AMD’s popular 3D V-Cache technology, known for boosting gaming and productivity performance, may soon extend beyond desktop CPUs to Ryzen APUs and Threadripper CPUs. According to recent leaks, AMD is preparing to bring 3D V-Cache to its workstation and mobile platforms, hinting at major advancements for AMD’s future lineup.

A post from zhangzhonghao on the Chiphell forums suggests that AMD’s supply chain has confirmed 3D V-Cache for next-gen Threadripper CPUs and upcoming Ryzen APUs. He also mentioned seeing “Vcache” references in the BIOS of ASUS’s TRX motherboards, further indicating 3D V-Cache integration.

While AMD is expected to release the 9000WX/X Threadripper series with increased L3 cache on all available CCDs, rumors suggest a different strategy for mobile APUs, starting with a next-gen “Strix Halo” successor designed specifically for laptops. These mobile chips are rumored to improve CPU-GPU performance synergy, though no concrete details have surfaced.

AMD’s expanded use of 3D V-Cache, already proven in EPYC server CPUs, could lead to enhanced performance in both desktop and mobile markets. As AMD continues to innovate with cache layering beneath CCDs, users can anticipate increased clock speeds and more efficient heat management.
