I understand that on the 12 and 16 core versions, at least one chiplet was more effectively grouped than on the 6 and 8 core models with Ryzen 5000 and 7000 series. Do you think this pattern continues for the 3D cache chiplet? Would it be accurate to assume that turning off non-3D chiplets would yield better performance, cooler operation, and higher efficiency compared to a 7800X3D? Are you sure about the idea that disabling CCD1 makes the 7950X3D behave like a 7800X3D with improved binning? And according to TechPowerUp, when CCD0 is disabled it appears to become a 7700X which might be less well-binned—your observation seems supported.
Certainly VCache CPUs operate more slowly because the cache generates additional heat. The analysis focuses on clock speeds and power usage comparing 8-core VCache versus VCache chiplet on the 7950X3D and 7800X3D chips. This isn't a direct match to other non-3D cache solutions, which typically run faster but deliver poorer performance across all games.
