Known for delivering a massive boost to gaming and productivity performance, 3D V-Cache is AMD’s secret sauce, and it’s about to spice up an even more significant portion of the AMD lineup.

According to Videocardz, AMD made waves with its Ryzen 9000X3D chips, proving that 3D V-Cache could deliver jaw-dropping performance gains for gaming and heavy-duty productivity tasks. According to leaks from Chiphell forums, AMD could be bringing this tech to its beastly Threadripper processors and potentially to the mobile market.

One leaker, zhangzhonghao, shared that AMD’s supply chain has confirmed the plan to roll out Threadripper CPUs with 3D V-Cache.

AMD is eyeing mainstream mobile platforms, meaning laptops could get a power boost like never before.

zhangzhonghao mentioned that “the word Vcache appeared in the BIOS manual of ASUS's TRX motherboard,” prompting him to check with supply chain sources.

Based on that, it would appear the tech is “really going to come out,” he says, suggesting that AMD is prepping 3D V-Cache-equipped Ryzen APUs and a next-gen Strix Halo model that could take performance to new heights.

It seems like AMD’s Strix Halo successor—not the original Strix Halo—will feature the coveted 3D V-Cache design, so laptop users might need to wait a little longer for X3D mobile chips. But there’s no doubt AMD is setting the stage for something big.

The most interesting possibility is the upcoming Threadripper 9000WX/X series, which is rumoured to come with an additional L3 cache via all available CCDs. Desktop processors typically only get 3D V-Cache on one CCD, but these Threadrippers are expected to pile on extra L3 cache across multiple CCDs, giving workstation users a serious performance edge. This setup is similar to AMD’s high-end EPYC CPUs, known for their insane cache stacks.

These pimped-up chips will be pricey.
