7000X3D Build REQUIRES THIS!

bmd's ryzen 7000 x3d parts are finally here and they're actually very different from the first Shin 5800 X 3D I'd even say they're pretty weird and because of that you need to do some things differently so today I wanted to go over what makes them so odd and what you need to do if you buy their new CPUs but before I get to that I will have affiliate links to these CPUs in the description for when they're released if you're interested in picking one up make sure to check that out it won't cost you anything more and it helps the channel out welcome everyone to gamer Mill as you can see here AMD sent over their ryzen 9 7950x3d so it thinks for that for those who don't know it's their 16 core 32 thread CPU with a whopping 144 megabytes of cash and 120 watt CDP and of course AMD is set to release both the ryzenine 7900x3d and 7950x3d CPU Spurs and let's just say that they're both odd see there's a reason AMD only released the 5800 x3d for their first gen part things get really complicated when they go past eight cores and that's because AMD scales the number of cores by combining multiple modules called chiplets into one die and starting with Zen 3 Andy began using 8 cores per chiplet so anything over that would require a second chip lit and this is where the 7900x3d and 7950 x3d come in both CPUs require two chiplets and this is where AMD made a decision they decided to only include their 3D V cash on one of the two chiplets AMD calls this asymmetric triplet design and while it can be confusing it actually makes sense see the 3D V cache absolutely helps in gaming because the added cache adds a significant reduction in latency and games are one of the few applications that are very sensitive to it but it comes with the downside adding all that cash for Sam D to lower clocks which means applications that are more affected by clock speed will do worse and that's why the 5800 X 3D did worse than the 5800x in professional workloads well according to AMD when they added a second chip lit with 3D V cache gaming performance didn't really go up all that much so they decided to only have one triplet width and one without 3db cash that way you get the best of both worlds one has faster clocks while the other gets lower latency unfortunately this added a major problem how would Windows know when to use which CCX in comes two new drivers the 3D V cash performance driver and mppm provisioning file driver and they essentially help make sure that the right cores are targeted depending on your workload and it's these two that make setting up your new CPU a bit different than usual now while AMD plans to release a blog post explaining things they gave us quite a few steps that you won't know about so I thought I'd go over some of those for starters you have to install the new bios usually you only need to for a new generation but for these new drivers to work right you'll need to update yours to do that head to your motherboard maker site find your board then download the newest bios usually under the support tab next you need to install the newest chipset driver this is all the new drivers in it simply go to amd.com find your motherboard's chipset and install the driver next restart your computer and then make sure you have the newest version of Windows just head to Windows update and have it look for the newest version next you want to go into your bios and verify that the cppc dynamic preferred course are set to auto just head to your bios find AMD CBS go to SMU common options then cppc Dynamic preferred cores and set it to Auto next you need to make sure that you have the most up-to-date Xbox game bar app don't worry this isn't Microsoft's Xbox app or anything like that it actually comes with Windows and works in the background but you need to make sure that you haven't deleted it or anything like that the reason is because Andy uses this to determine if you're playing a game basically the Xbox game bar app has a pretty huge registry of known games and when it notices that you're playing a game amd's new driver will actually Park the eight cores in your non-3d vcash chiplet now at first I was pretty concerned about this but I did speak with AMD and they made it clear that if a game requires more cores or you have other background apps running it will unpark them of course as Robert halek says in this interview that could add a bit of latency back but at least it can be an option if the game requires more cores but it basically does this is to ensure the game is using the course with 3D V cache also you want to make sure that your game app has the right versions to do this click the Windows button and G next click the settings icon then feedback and make sure the kgl version is the same as the kgl service version if not Andy had us run process idle tasks which basically runs the processes that your computer does when idle just run command prompt as administrator and type this exactly as I have it and press enter wait a while and then check to see if the versions are the same next make sure that game mode is turned on in Windows just search for game mode in Windows and make sure it's on if not make sure to turn it on next ensure you have everything by looking in device manager under system devices and buying AMD PPM provisioning file and amd's 3D V cache performance Optimizer finally make sure it all works to do this you can pull up Windows resource monitor then go into a game start playing it a bit then look in resource monitor to see if they're at 16 through 31 have been parked if so then you're good to go if not you may need to go through the steps again that or try a couple other games AMD suggested that we install cinebench rename it to a game.exe and then see if it Parks the cores basically AA games is a registered game so it thinks you're playing a game and therefore you can kind of see it while you're using cinebench at the end of the day amd's ryzen 7000 X 3D parts are a bit confusing but I think they made a good choice of course the upcoming 7800 x3d will only have one chip lit so hopefully it won't be as complicated either way I do hope you liked the video if you did make sure to give it a thumbs up and subscribe and as always have a great day
