I want a voltage cap added to the PBO options so badly.
I really wanna see an x3D chip with higher than 8 cores that isn’t crippled by half the cores not having access to the v-cache. Hopefully we get one of those soon.
Why though?
X3D is mostly for gaming which usually doesn’t need more than 8.
Meh I think 3d cache is over rated for the price .
I personally just want better idle efficiency and better IMC.
It was really unacceptable we had to wait 8 months for a usable agesa and imc.
Bro loves to idle
And everyone loves to pay too much for 2d cash e that only useful on 1080p on certain games and core clocks are lower
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So they are skipping the 8000 series and leaving that for APUs only? I guess they did that for 3000 to 5000 jump.
Also makes me wonder if Zen6 won’t be the 10000 series, but a whole new naming scheme.
Hopefully AMD will launch the 10600X and 10600F chips
Hasn’t it basically always been like this? 3xxx, 5xxx, 7xxx and now 9xxx? Usually even #s are APUs and mobile chips (laptops/portable devices).
They also kept the 6000 for APU
Previous leaks were saying Zen 5 will be 16 cores per CCD. Fingers crossed this will still be true though hope is fading.
I think 16 cores per CCD will be a Zen 6 thing. They might do a 8 core Zen 5 + 16 core Zen 5c part, though.
Probably not. They’ve got the option for 16 core dense setups, but they haven’t really seen the need to shift desktop over to use. I believe there was an interview where they asked about if the dense cores would come up desktop, and they didn’t seem to think they would.
They also seemed to think that memory bandwidth would quickly become an issue if they tried to scale it much bigger on desktop
As long as they move the i5 series to 8 cores at $299 or less, I’m happy. But I’m kind of doubting that’s going to happen for Zen5. I think they’ll stick to an 8 core CCD design, and maybe throw a 3rd core chiplets on, for 24c total.
i think they will do something weird like 8 core P core CCD and 16 Core E core CCD
Zen 4 was launched in September of 2022, it’s not unfathomable to see Zen 5 in the first half of 2024
7950X3D/7800X3D came out 9/7 months ago, so the most interesting stuff might still be a long while.
It just makes sense from the CPU side of things to launch in the new year. Clear out old stock on holiday discounts, grab the die-hards in the new year with full MSRP, then slowly decline the prices throughout the summer sales and such till you hit holiday again, rinse and repeat. Rarely is their an application that demands a platform upgrade, unlike GPUs that are timing to be out with the new holiday quarter launches.
Typically you’d want new products on shelves for the holiday season to maximize hype/sales. Back to school is a better time to clear out inventory.
Yes, however the big ticket item everyone’s gunning for is the fancy new GPU to play the fancy new game. If it’s a choice between the two it’s the GPU almost every time for consumers. E.g., Cyberpunk 2077, at launch people down to Haswell i7s could run the game, but anything below Pascal really struggled, leading to the first massive wave of shortages in Ampere and RDNA2.
They gotta have sumfin for CES…
Typo. They either meant to write Ryzen 7000 or Ryzen 9-series.
2024 will be amazing if MTL and Z5 dukes it out in ThinkPads.
Not a chance in hell this is real. At least insofar as the ad showing. Alienware moved on from their (trash) case design with the R16.
Unless this is how they sell AMD models while keeping Intel happy.
Or maybe the R16 was poorly received by general consumers who give zero fucks about airflow and buy Alienware on looks alone ¯\(ツ)/¯
