AMD had earlier said that the Ryzen 7000 CPUs with 3D V-Cache technology would be unveiled later this year during the FAD 2022 conference, but the plans still haven’t kept up with the changes.

"Saeid Moshkelani, AMD senior vice president and general manager of the Client Division, pointed out that the R7-5800X3D is the best gaming processor on the market, and there is no 'one'.

We're proud of what V-Cache technology brings to the table and will be adopting it later this year, as well as in the next generation of Ryzen 7000 series CPUs."

The Zen 4 Ryzen 7000-series AM5 processors have been compared to 12th-gen Alder Lake until Intel’s 13th-gen Raptor Lake rivals hit the market.

Embarrassingly, the first Ryzen 7000 series CPU models without 3D V-Cache blessing also face competition from their own AM4 SKUs (such as R7-5800X3D).

As for the AM5 3D V-Cache processor that AMD intends to bring during CES 2023, it is said that there will be one more model than the AM4 platform – one for enthusiasts and the other for mainstream gamers.

By the way, one of the big regrets of the previous generation Zen 3 / V-Cache processors was the lack of support for overclocking features. And in order to reduce power consumption (voltage curve), AMD even lowered the voltage of the R7-5800X3D a bit compared to the non-V-Cache SKU.

The good news is that while the Zen 4/V-Cache parts are still less clocked than the non-V-Cache models, the Ryzen 7000X3D is expected to at least ease the voltage constraints, further closing the performance gap between clock rates.

@OneRaichu has long shared revelations related to Intel / AMD CPUs, and now he has shared IPC performance data related to Zen 4 and Raptor Cove cores and added Intel’s 12th generation P core (Golden Cove) and 12th / 13th generation E. Kernel (Gracemont) comparison.

The comparison test uses a fixed clock rate of SPECCPU2017 Rate-1 @ 3600MHz and evaluates the impact of DDR5-4800 / 6000 frequency memory on CPU IPC performance.

DDR5-4800 IPC Performance Comparison

It can be seen that the excellent cache configuration is a lot of bonus points for AMD Zen 4 (it is not highly dependent on DRAM), and the high latency of DDR5 / Gear 2 mode will cause the Intel platform to be 15 ns higher than DDR4-3200 latency (but for IPC impact of only 2%).

Let’s talk about DDR5-4800 first, the SPECint scores of Intel’s 13th-generation Raptor Cove large core and AMD Zen 4 Ryzen 7000 CPU, indicate that its IPC performance is 2% higher than that of the 12th-generation Golden Cove.

In the Specfp benchmark, the Raptor Cove cores outperformed Golden Cove by 3%, and 2% ahead of AMD Zen 4—meaning that the IPC performance between AMD Zen 4 and Intel Raptor Cove cores is basically the same.

DDR5-6000 IPC Performance Comparison

The same is true for the DDR5-6000 memory configuration, with Intel Raptor Cove and AMD Zen 4 cores giving similar IPC results (6.81 vs 6.77), respectively.

Compared to Intel’s 12th Gen Golden Cove cores, the 13th Gen Raptor Cove is about a 1% improvement. In the Specfp test, its IPC performance is 4% higher than AMD Zen 4 and 3% ahead of Golden Cove.

In terms of small cores, the IPC performance of the 13th-generation Gracemont in the SPECint benchmark is 6% higher than that of the 12th-generation Gracemont, and the IPC of SPECfp is improved by 7%.

To sum up, the IPC performance of the three architectures, Raptor Cove, Alder Lake and Zen 4, are all in the same echelon.

In addition to this, the main goals of the new generation of CPUs will be higher clock rates and cache structure improvements – which are very important for applications such as games – and we must also consider the CPU’s energy efficiency,

As for the performance of AMD Zen 4 Ryzen 7000 series and Intel 13th generation Raptor Lake desktop processors in real application scenarios, please wait patiently for new products to be launched.

Even the mainstream Ryzen R5-7600X, this 6C / 12T Ryzen 7000 series desktop processor will soar to 90°C at 120W – which means that players will need to be equipped with a fairly powerful radiator to ensure due performance.

On the other hand, even though “enthusiastic citizens” have a solid history of breaking news, this comparison is still based on ES/QS sample chips, so the final retail SKU is expected to bring a slightly different result.

In front of the AMD Zen 4 Ryzen 7000 desktop processor that soared to 95°C at 230W, the performance of Intel’s 13th Gen Raptor Lake at 270W @ 82°C really surprised us.

Given that AMD’s first launch price is usually inflated, the X670E motherboard is not cheap this time, and the price/performance ratio of DDR5 memory is still not as good as that of DDR4, and the supporters of the original AM5 platform will become more entangled.

In contrast, Intel’s 13th-generation Core can also be paired with a relatively affordable B660 motherboard and retains the DDR4 memory controller, so the competitiveness of the AMD Ryzen R5 will be considerably questioned.
