AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 3D V-Cache CPU Benchmarks Leak Out, Up To 9% Faster Than Ryzen 7 5800X

Now geekbench isn't really a good CPU benchmark so hopefully it's much faster in actual games otherwise, it may as well be a flop.

AMD has always said that the benefits of the extra cache would be for games, not other tasks and not benchmark tools like geekbench. So, an 9% increase in that benchmark isn't too bad, specially when you look at it and realize that the single core result is the same and the increase is only for the multi-core one... and the 5800X3D has lower all-core clocks than the 5800X.

Maybe, probably, it won't reach the claimed 15% increase, but it could end being close to it.
