Intel and AMD’s next battle could be interesting for gamers
 

3D V-cache versus increased clock speeds

The next-generation CPUs could be an interesting time for gamers as Intel and AMD square off with some different concepts.

We know that AMD plans to release 3D V-cache equipped versions of some of its models. These will certainly provide improved gaming performance over non-3D Zen 4 models. Meanwhile, Chipzilla is rumoured to be fighting back with 6GHz speed improvements.

Leaker @Greymon55 suggests that Raphael-X (7000 series V-cache chips) will come ‘very quickly’ after the initial launch. The 5800X3D launched almost 18 months after the 5800X, so an early 2023 launch is possible. A launch in 2022 is unlikely as that would leave only three months after a September launch. AMD might pull finger on the release because Intel’s 13th Gen CPUs could be very competitive.
