At Intel's big Innovation 2023 event, CEO Pat Gelsinger confirmed that the company would adopt a 3D Cache approach for CPUs in the future - though it won't be a part of the upcoming Meteor Lake roadmap. The confirmation came during a Q&A session where someone asked if Intel was considering adopting something similar to AMD's 3D V-Cache processors.

AMD 3D V-Cache powered Ryzen X3D processors have proved to be excellent performers for PC gaming. However, the 3D stacking of cache is a TSMC packaging technology for chips that AMD has taken advantage of - so it's not proprietary.

Intel confirming that it is planning to adopt a similar thing for upcoming CPUs is interesting stuff. Still, Pat Gelsinger added, "We're doing that differently in our composition," with the company looking to stack CPU compute on top of memory. And Intel will leverage its own process technology and foundries to deliver the technology.

Global entry! We have teamed up with Patriot to give away some of its awesome new products this week. In total, there will be three winners who each have the opportunity of taking home one of the below three products.

"The Viper Xtreme 5 is designed to operate at higher speeds with lower voltages without generating as much heat. This lower power consumption is possible due to the integrated high-quality PMIC which creates more room for overclocking without exceeding safe voltages and temperature limits. (Overclocking requires more power, so a high-quality power supply with adequate wattage and stability can help ensure stable and reliable overclocking.)"

"The Viper Venom DDR5 was created with the desire to deliver premier speeds to blow the competition away. Built with Viper's groundbreaking technology, the Viper Venom DDR5 can far surpass the limits of DDR4 modules to deliver twice the speed and bandwidth. With Viper's innovative onboard power and thermal management technology, this module features efficient operation and lower power consumption for longer module lifespans.

Global entry! We have teamed up with Netac to give away two of its awesome Shadow Series RGB DDR5-4800 (16GB x 2) dual-channel memory kits.

Global entry! We have teamed up with Netac to give away one of its awesome new NV7000 1TB SSDs to one lucky winner.

In our very own review of the NV7000 1TB SSD from back at the end of August, Jon Coulter, our in-house SSD guru, said: "Netac is bringing value like none other with its NV7000 SSD, making it TweakTown Elite and worthy of our highest award."

Global entry! We have teamed up with Sabrent to give away two of its newest products. The details on each are listed below, and both would make for a great addition to an upcoming gaming PC build.

One winner will take home a 32GB Sabrent Rocket DDR5 16GB 4800MHz dual-channel memory kit (worth $270). We recently reviewed these memory modules and found them to be able to hit a very impressive 6800MHz OC at C40.

It seems like DDR4 has ruled the roost forever. Finally, new motherboards and architectures have allowed memory to grow wings with the advent of DDR5. Improved clock speeds promise up to twice the bandwidth of DDR4, all with lower voltage for better efficiency. To further help with that last bit, DDR5 has on-board power management to reduce motherboard cost and complexity.

Global entry! We have teamed up with be quiet! to give away some of its awesome new products for five lucky winners.

The be quiet! Pure Base 500 FX Black offers impressive lighting with multiple modes and maximum airflow for high cooling performance.

Global entry! We have teamed up with Sabrent to give away one of its awesome 8TB Rocket 4 Plus NVMe 4.0 Gen4 SSDs worth $2000 to one lucky winner.

From our preview: So, is it the new King of SSDs? Overall, despite our heavily weighted tendency to prioritize user experience above all, its throughput, TLC flash, and unparalleled capacity compel us to declare it such. As we've explained before, there comes the point where capacity takes the lead as the primary factor related to user experience, provided the SSD can also deliver throughput at Elite levels. Sabrent's 8TB Rocket 4 Plus does just that, and therefore we consider it worthy of the title.

We rank SSDs in terms of overall user experience (performance where it matters most) as expressed by PCMark 10 storage and 3DMark gaming storage tests. We consider a user experience score of 11K or more to verify an SSD as a TweakTown Elite performer. While not TT Elite in terms of user experience, it's still the new King of SSDs simply because it is the one SSD we would choose above all others.

Global entry! We have teamed up with Allied Gaming to give away one of its awesome gaming accessory packs worth over $280 USD ($380 AUD) to one lucky winner.

Allied Gaming's accessory pack which we are giving away consists of the Allied Warhead 7.1 RGB gaming headset, Allied Firehawk RGB gaming mechanical keyboard, Allied Flashbang RGB gaming mouse, and Allied TacMat RGB gaming surface.

The total value of the package comes to $380 AUD (or around $280 USD). It ought to make the perfect gift for the gamer in your life, or heck, for yourself if it's time to upgrade your gaming gear to the next level.

Global entry! We have teamed up with Sabrent to give away some of its awesome Rocket 4 Plus SSDs!

The winners won't only get an awesome new Rocket 4 Plus SSD, they will also receive Sabrent's PS5 heat sink. A specifically designed heat sink by Sabrent which fits perfectly in the PS5 and help keeps your SSD cool and running its best during long gaming sessions. So, if you're looking at expanding your console's storage capacity, you are in luck here.

Next Level SSD

Global entry! We have teamed up with MSI to give away one of their totally awesome new GeForce RTX 3080 GAMING X TRIO graphics cards to one lucky winner. Yep, that's right, one of the cards that are really hard to buy right now - it could be yours!

Quote from our review: You can juice it up with a huge 1000MHz overclock on the 10GB of GDDR6X memory which will give you a nice performance boost in some games (4K and 1440p especially). The MSI RTX 3080 GAMING X TRIO is already pushing the boundaries of the GA102 GPU boost clock as it is, but another 25MHz can be applied and it's still whisper quiet.

But right now, if you can somehow get your hands-on MSI's new custom GeForce RTX 3080 GAMING X TRIO you won't regret it. You get that powerhouse RTX 3080 performance that can usher in 4K 120FPS gaming, but it does it all without making noise.
