Gaming Performance: 1080p

Moving along, here's a look at a more balanced gaming scenario, running games at 1080p with maximum image quality.

We are using DDR5 memory on the Ryzen 9 7950X3D and the other Ryzen 7000 series we've tested. This also includes Intel's 13th and 12th Gen processors. We tested the aforementioned platforms with the following settings:

  • DDR5-5600B CL46 - Intel 13th Gen
  • DDR5-5200 CL44 - Ryzen 7000
  • DDR5-4800 (B) CL40 - Intel 12th Gen

All other CPUs such as Ryzen 5000 and 3000 were tested at the relevant JEDEC settings as per the processor's individual memory support with DDR4.

At 1080p, we're seeing the 3D V-Cache on the Ryzen 9 7950X3D coming into play with more efficacy. In titles including Borderlands 3, Grand Theft Auto V, and Hitman 3, the 3D V-Cache offers an advantage over the other processors on test.

It should be reminded that when the AMD drivers are detecting a game, it's using the CCX with the 3D V-Cache packaging, and not the other CCX. This essentially makes it an 8-core CPU with 96 MB of L3 cache, which is effective in some titles, and not so much in others where CPU frequency and core count matter.
