Question [Idea] Ryzen Black Edition - 3D V-cache for Zen4?

[VirtualLarry]

Just thinking of some marketing. When AMD get around to adding the 3D V-cache treatment to Zen4, they should resurrect the "Black" moniker from the FX CPUs.

Ryzen Black Edition

Has kind of a ring to it really.

If you didn't sell your Radeon VII to some crazed miner for at least $1,000 more than you paid, I'm not sure what more you could ask for. That thing basically experienced a hidden unlock that would let you upgrade to a new top of the line AMD GPU for free.

I would have had to gut my system to do that, which was not something I was willing to do.

Same for me. Didn't have a passable replacement and when the VII was worth the most it was also a question if you could get another card, let alone pay an arm and leg extra anyways for real upgrade. Maybe a 3070, but no matter how valuable the VII was paying 1200+ for a 3070 was something I couldn't convince myself to do.
