The engineer took a peak inside the 7900 XT&#8217;s die with infrared imaging and found the same type of 3D V-Cache connection points used on AMD&#8217;s Zen 3 and Zen 4 architecture. Wassick spotted the connections on the MCD die. Wassick cannot say if these TSV connection points will be used for caching purposes specifically, but AMD has made no known plans to expand its 3D packaging capabilities beyond vertically stacked cache at this point. That makes it seem like these connection points would be used with some sort of 3D cache in mind to increase gaming performance and\/or compute performance. The discovery comes after numerous unconfirmed rumors that AMD would add 3D V-Cache tech to its GPUs. 3D V-Cache has been used to great success on AMD&#8217;s Ryzen and EPYC CPUs so far.
