Although AMD’s Zen 4 processor architecture has not been fully reflected in the sales figures of gamers and high-end users, the new architecture has been found to be quite successful. While the cost of AM5 motherboards and DDR5 memory kits is putting a wall in front of the next generation for many in the current economic environment, it is clear that the red team has very different things at their disposal. Because a while ago, the EPYC Genoa-X processor, an engineering example with superior features, appeared.EPYC Genoa-X and 1GB L3 cache
A pseudo-engineering sample of AMD’s yet-to-be-released EPYC Genoa-X CPU has been posted on a Chinese website. Based on Zen 4 architecture, the server CPU has 3D V-Cache technology. AMD has previously acknowledged that Genoa-X is in development, but has not announced an official release date.
It will be released as the successor to the EPYC Milan-X family of the Genoa-X series and will reportedly offer 96 cores and 192 threads based on Zen 4. However, the biggest difference seems to be on the side of the huge 3D V-Cache pool. The leaked engineering sample EPYC 9684X also has 1152 MB of L3 cache. From the shared photos, it is seen that the processor belongs to the EPYC 9004 series series. In addition, the processor appears to be compatible with Socket SP5.If we go back to the cache side, I think we can better understand the size of this huge amount by looking at the previous generation. As it is known, the Milan-X family came with a maximum of 768 MB of L3 cache. Hence, there is a massive 50 percent increase in the amount of cache from generation to generation. According to reports, the EPYC 9684X will have 96 MB of L2 cache and 3 MB of L1 cache. So the total cache amount is a crazy 1.251 MB. There is no information about performance for now, but they will probably emerge in the future.
