- It is said that the impulse of AI of Asus improves the elevation of the workload of AI in almost 20%
- The tests were performed with the three AMD Ryzen 9000 processors
- Ryzen 7 9800x3d of AMD seems to benefit more
Asus has launched a BIOS function called AI Cache Boost, which is said to increase the performance of the AI workload in the Ryzen 9000 AMD processors by up to 19.35%.
AI Cache Boost arises as part of a new BIOS firmware update for the motherboard of the AMD 800 series of ASUS which is said to “pump AI’s performance of its AMD Ryzen system” for AI applications, such as working with large language models (LLM).
Specifically, Asus has tested the two AMD Ryzen 9950x3d and Ryzen 9900x3d recently launched that benefit the “AI enthusiasts.”
To use the technology with a CPU of the Ryzen 9000 series and an ASUS AMD 800 series motherboard, then you are going to the usefulness of the EUEFI BIOS, go to the Tweaker Extreme tab and then alternate Ai cache boost a ‘enabled’ and that will make it ready to handle more workloads of AI.
Asus states that its AI Boost includes overclocking The infinity cloth clock at 2100 MHz, which is said to increase the total bandwidth of data transfers between the CPU nuclei of the Ryzen 9000 series, cache memory and memory to work with large language models.
The hardware manufacturer tests were carried out with a RG CROSSHAIR X870E Hero, an RTX 5090 and 32GB DDR5 RAM as a test bank. In addition to the two most recently launched AM5 chips, 9800x3D also tested in Geekbench AI with the Onnx Directml frame as a reference point.
On average, the impulse of AI of Asus saw an increase of around 5% in Geekbench AI with its unique and half precision precision scores for 9950x3d and 9900x3d. However, the 9800x3D saw the largest difference, of 7.93% with its medium precision score (comparing the default value of 63365 to 68393).
The increase in yield of 12.5% claimed was also achieved in 9800x3D with the UL PROCYON AI computer viewing point, a broad 1680 improvement compared to 1490. According to the published reference points, it seems that the popular games CPU can benefit more than the two main models.
Asus acknowledges that it is still “first days” for the RTX 5090, so I had also performed tests with the previous (but still excellent) generation RTX 4090. It is this pairing that we see the greatest impulse, in conjunction with the BIOS of the BIOS function, the impulse of the turbo game (which allows the CPU to function more efficiently by disableing the simultaneous multiple reading).
When using AI Boost and Turbo Game Mode together, the AMD Ryzen 9 9950x3D saw a jump from 1426 to 1702 at the computer’s reference point of vision Ai Ul ProCyon. Without the turbo game mode, however, the difference was minimal in only 1485 (4.1%). To get the best experience, you may need both enabled bios functions.
An advantage for AI work loads in niche hardware
The ASUS reference points reveal anywhere, from a slight impulse to a significant elevation in AI performance in the Ryzen 9000 series, when combined with graphics cards of 90 main classes to a large extent. According to the averages, it seems that the Ryzen 7 9800x3d benefits more (except one or two high -end exceptions).
That said, to use this function, you will need a specific series of motherboard and also the use of the turbo game mode to take things beyond. If you are thinking of building a platform only for AI work loads, then it seems that the new BIOS function could be a small arm to do things a little faster and easier, however, it is debatable if it is worth updating around 3-6% in most tests.
