A person on reddit told me the answer to my problem. If you do the below QEMU provides EPYC instead and all the cache is right. It dropped latency accrossed the board. L3 is down to 13ns and l1-1ns l2-2-3ns. Machine seems MUCH more responsive. Should also mention they said they had updated their kernel and a patch on QEMU made theirs see it properly without this code so hopefully we will see it on unraid as well.   <cpu mode='custom' match='exact' check='partial'> <model
