According to the tomshardware review only one of the two CCDs on a 7950X3D or 7900X3D has the 3D V-cache chiplet attached? Why not both? Is this why some people disable a CCD when gaming? Will the next gen X3D CPUs have the 3D V-cache chiplet attached to all CCDs on a given interposer/substrate? If Windows 10 or Windows 11 can preferentially schedule gaming loads to the X3D equipped CCD chiplet doesn't that imply you're running your games on a 7900X3D 6-core/12-thread CPU that doesn't boost as high as the CCD without the X3D chiplet (and thus less L3 cache)?
I still don't understand why AMD doesn't go w/mackerel's suggestion and put the L4 on IOD chiplet (and maybe even a larger X3D L4 cache than the X3D L3 caches), because that would be a win for all CCDs and maybe even for the iGPU.
