Breakdown of the (semi-clickbait) 208MB cache: 16MB L2 (8MB per die?) + 32MB L3 * 2 dies + 64MB L3 Stacked 3D V-cache * 2

For comparison, 9950X3D have a total cache of 144MB.

> 16MB L2 (8MB per die?)

It is indeed 8MB per compute die but really 1MB per core. Not shared among the entire CCD.

I wouldn’t be caught dead with less than 200MB of cache in my desktop in 2026.
