FEATURED AMD ZEN Discussion (Previous Rumor Thread)

[Tír na nÓg]

I do not share your confidence, seeing how nobody knows how hot Zen and Vega get.

Too hot to handle!

Can't be any worse than FX right? At least in my mind, the 4C/8T should easily exceed the FX8xxx series performance wise. If AMD's numbers are to be believed, that should be true, but we shall see....

 

[Thick8]

Not knowing is what's going to make it fun. My plan is to max it out on water and go from there.

 

[BuRgLaR]

If the 8c/16t can overclock as well as the FX series this will not be a hard choice for my coming build.

You want to translate that into english for me ED?

 

[EarthDog]

Google translate should do it?

 

[Tír na nÓg]

6c/12t in the pieline!

 

[EarthDog]

They must have updated it... it said, somewhere, lol, that there wasn't a 6c/12t part because the 'base' are quad cores.

 

[Tír na nÓg]

Well, might have misread...

 

[ATMINSIDE]

I read it as the 6c/12t is in process, but will not be in the initial release.

 

[Mandrake4565]

Google translate should do it?

That would require effort ED...comon I know you speka the german.

 

[Kenrou]

So it's either 4/8 or 8/16 ?

 

[Johan45]

Still the way I read it, there's nothing definite about a six core coming from AMD sources.

31.01.2017 um 14:45 Uhr Aus Thailand stammt das Gerücht, AMD werde mit der ersten Ryzen-Generation Summit Ridge keine CPUs mit sechs Rechenkernen anbieten. Möglicherweise könnten die CPU-Complexes genannten Module nur als Ganzes und nicht teildeaktiviert werden. Das würde jedoch den bisherigen Gerüchten zu Sechskernern widersprechen.

Translated....

31.01.2017 at 14:45It is rumored from Thailand that AMD will not offer CPUs with six core cores with the first Ryzen generation Summit Ridge. Possibly the CPU-Complexes mentioned modules could only be deactivated as a whole and not partially. This would, however, contradict the previous rumors about six-core.

 

[Tír na nÓg]

My bad...

 

[ShrimpBrime]

So this site is saying there is only 2 modules, each having 4 cores and only a single module can be shut off at a time.

I can't imagine only two offerings, besides having a bunch of quads at different clock speeds, the same with the octo core cpus.

If this is going to be like FX, get the lowest binned chip and OC it to a higher clock speed and they are all essentially the same.

I'm getting the fast one XD

lol I thought the same exact thing.
