According to AMD, the Ryzen 7000 “Raphael-X” CPUs, based on the Zen 4 architecture and equipped with 3D V-Cache, will be released later this year. It appears that the information was ignored during AMD’s Financial Analyst Day in 2022. According to information provided by AMD’s Senior Vice President and General Manager for Client, Saeid Moshkelani, the red team will release Ryzen 7000 Desktop CPUs with 3D V-Cache later this year in 2022.
Ryzen 7 5800X3D is the best gaming processor in the market bar none. We are proud of what V-Cache technology is doing for us and we are gonna feature this in Ryzen 7000 series later this year and the future generation.

This is important information because the majority of rumors said that Zen 4 V-Cache wouldn’t be released until 2023. The availability of Ryzen 7000 3D V-Cache processors in 2022 has officially been confirmed by AMD. As a result, AMD’s Zen 4 core-based Ryzen 7000 CPUs will be offered on the AM5 platform in both standard and V-Cache versions. This might be the firm’s covert strategy to counter Intel’s Raptor Lake series.
AMD proved with the Ryzen 7 5800X3D that it can compete with Intel’s newest and best CPUs, known as Alder Lake, by utilizing 3D V-Cache technology. The CPU considerably outscored Intel’s top gaming CPUs in testing, giving gamers a better bargain. Even though AMD may not be offering a big IPC uplift on Zen 4, the increased speeds and addition of V-Cache may once again place AMD in the top tier of gaming performance when compared to Intel’s Raptor Lake series. The battle in the consumer market will be exciting because Raptor Lake also has a greater internal cache, but it isn’t as big as AMD’s 3D V-Cache technology.
The Zen 4 CPUs from AMD, which will power the Ryzen 7000 and Ryzen 7000 V-Cache CPUs, were also given some significant information at FAD 2022
We now have an IPC statistic for the Zen 4 core architecture built on the 5nm manufacturing node. AMD expects to boost performance by 8–10% while claiming over 15% single-threaded performance enhancements over Zen 3 CPUs. It is also crucial that AMD places emphasis on memory bandwidth, which will increase by 125 percent per core with next-generation DDR5 memory standards.
Some of the key features highlighted for Zen 4 CPUs include:
Significant generational performance per watt and frequency improvement
8-10% instructions per clock increase
15% single thread performance gain
Up to 125% memory bandwidth per core
ISA extension for AI and AVX-512
The AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs, according to recent rumors, would be on sale on September 15. While 3D V-Cache chips are probably coming later in November or December 2022, Raptor Lake from Intel is predicted around October 2022.
