Intel will reportedly take the fight to AMD's dominant X3D gaming CPUs with monstrous Nova Lake chip packing 288 MB of vertical cache and 52 cores

Intel is planning to sock it to AMD's dominant X3D CPUs with a 52-core version of its upcoming Nova Lake processor. Incredibly, it's claimed the chip will pack 288 MB of last-level vertical cache memory.

That's well over double the 128 MB of V-Cache currently offered by AMD's top X3D CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D. This news comes somewhat cryptically from one of the most reliable leakers in the business, kopite7kimi (via WCCFTech).
