5800x3d upgrade from 3900x for gaming (Will Vcache help in a VM?)


Recommended Posts

So unfortunately the only game I care about is FS 2020 which is very CPU and GPU intensive. (Have a 3090, but currently CPU bound)

 

I'm not keen on upgrading the platform and happy with AM4 that I'm on. The 3900x in a VM is not cutting it.

 

My question is if I were to get the 5800x3d given that it's the best CPU for FS 2020, would all the features that I could potentially gain (3d cache and higher boosting) be accessible via unraid.

 

That is, does the current linux kernel support boosting to the 5800x3d values, and would the 3d cache be as effective given I have a VM ontop of everything. Is Qemu aware of this extra layer of cache and would the performance improvment be passed on to the VM?
