AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D Impact Of The 3D V-Cache Optimizer Linux Driver


Last month I posted benchmarks showing the performance when using the new 3D V-Cache Optimizer driver on Linux using the flagship Ryzen 9 9950X3D.

For some additional insight into the 3D V-Cache Optimizer driver performance impact on Linux, here are benchmarks looking at the difference while using the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D. As explained in the prior article, the AMD 3D V-Cache Optimizer driver was mainlined in the Linux 6.13 kernel and checking on its status or altering the preferred mode can be done using the /sys/bus/platform/drivers/amd_x3d_vcache/AMDI0101:00/amd_x3d_mode interface. A wide variety of different workloads were carried out for providing insight into where it does or does not make sense for adjusting the 3D V-Cache Optimizer driver default.
