I would assume this to be the case. It should be beneficial at higher thread counts if more code and shared data is in the cache. All the tests, however, seem to be very CPU-bound and graphics related. I'm curious about the chess ones, where it seems one model benefited more from the extra L3 than the other, as well as the one where Windows had significantly lower performance (could it be small file IO?).
Finding the cases where the larger cache is most beneficial would be an interesting project on its own.
