AMD's 3D V-Cache delivers massive gaming performance improvements, but could this technology revolutionize server and datacenter workloads? What are the technical barriers to scaling this approach?

Additional Context

While 3D V-Cache excels at gaming workloads with large datasets, server applications have different characteristics. Database operations, virtualization, and cloud computing workloads might benefit even more from massive cache sizes. But thermal management and cost scaling could be prohibitive.

Server workloads could benefit enormously from 3D V-Cache, especially database applications. The challenge is thermal management - server CPUs run 24/7 at high utilization unlike gaming CPUs. AMD would need advanced thermal solutions and possibly accept lower base clocks. The economics might work for high-end database servers where cache hit rates directly translate to transaction throughput.
