#AMD #Ryzen 9 #9950X3D Delivers Excellent Performance For #Linux Developers, Creators & Technical Computing
Generationally 9950X3D came out 25% faster than 7950X3D overall making it still a very nice generational upgrade with being able to leverage the same #AM5 motherboard and DDR5 system memory.
Heavy hitting gains for 9950X3D in AI workloads like OpenVINO, TensorFlow, and Llama.cpp. HPC / technical computing workloads, and more all benefited handsomely from 3D #VCache.

#AMD 3D #VCache Optimizer Driver Headlines The x86 Platform Enhancements In #Linux 6.13
This is the new driver from AMD that allows for users having AMD #Ryzen #X3D #CPU where only some #CCD(s) have the larger 3D V-Cache to set their preference on cache vs. frequency.

#AMD crafts custom #EPYC #CPU with #HBM3 memory for #Microsoft #Azure – CPU with 88 #Zen4 cores and 450GB of HBM3 may be repurposed #MI300C, four chips hit 7TB/s
#HBv series of Azure #VM are focused on delivering high amounts of memory bandwidth; Microsoft calls it “biggest #HPC bottleneck.” Previously, Microsoft had used #MilanX and #GenoaX with AMD 3D #VCache to provide extra bandwidth, but for latest #HBv5 VMs, Microsoft clearly wanted something even more performant.

#AMD #X3D #VCache Performance Optimizer Driver Posted For #Linux
The AMD 3D V-Cache Performance Optimizer Driver provides an interface for user-space to indicate whether their workloads are more cache sensitive or prefer higher frequency operation. This interface sets a bias to alter the #CPU core reordering depending upon whether you are desiring higher frequences or larger L3 cache usage for your application(s).

#Zen5 Variants and More, Clock for Clock
They compare #Zen 5 variants along with a pile of older cores with clock speed taken out of the equation as much as possible. That means capping clock speeds on all CPUs to the lowest clocking chip. In this case, that’s the #3GHz Athlon II X2 651.
Desktop Zen 5 takes a healthy 20.8% lead over #Zen4 in the most comparable configuration. #VCache gives Zen 4 96 MB of L3 cache which shrinks Zen 5’s lead to a still significant 16.6%.
