AMD 3rd Generation Ryzen Probable SKUs, Specs, Pricing Leaked?

[Darmok N Jalad]

Huge grain of salt to be taken here, but with the chiplet concept, binning is going to look different than the current Ryzen line. That could mean the best binned (clocks, efficiency, etc) chiplets go into the highest SKUs, and that maybe there won’t be a need to harvest for 6 core anymore. AMD appears to answer Intel’s stack with more cores at the same pricing tier, and most of Intel’s mid/high lineup is 6 core. They would essentially be pushing Intel into more production issues by making them go all 8 core for i5 and up.

Still, if this is true, I’m sad to not see a 5GHz low/mid-end model. I just bought a 2400G with the plan to eventually replace it with a 3xxx Series.

"very plausible"

AMD, please make this happen.

I would just add my thought to this whole deal...

Just think of this scenario:
Video editing company that works in a small environment and is tired of having computers everywhere to edit potentially 4k/8k footage.
With something like this 3990WX (64c/128t) they could have 8VMs running EACH 8c/16t v-CPUs and 32GB of RAM... Assuming a similar amount of PCIe lanes to the previous gen, each GPU would have 8x connectivity... a nice rtx2070 would do the trick here...
Just imagine this... I know Linus already did this BUT with a dual xeon motherboard! this is all in one chip!
Just remanage it a bit and you could also have a spare for a freeNAS instance locally and SMB shares for each VM... all in what could be a 3u chassis in a rack somewhere in another room...

This is a potential usage I would think...

A reputable joint

Ain't such a thing these days by the old fashioned definition of "reputable".

Me I just hope those Durons are real and they do support overclocking. They would absolutely destroy the price/performance graphs.

 

[natr0n]

I see Duron people.

Only if they unlock are they the coolest things ever

 

[AMX85]

Duron? why now? where's Sempron? lol

 

[goldman]

i find it really hard to believe there will be no ryzen 3 made with zen 2 cores, tbh

Whatever it is using bulldozer architecture should be killed. Anyone buying a bulldozer CPU, is a potential lost and never coming back future customer. We can see this now. AMD's Ryzen processors are selling for peanuts and still can't really take over the market. AMD does have a big part of the retail market in Europe, based on mindfactory numbers, but I doubt this is the case in the US market also. The damage that bulldozer done on AMD's image is huge and still not repaired. That bulldozer cancer should be totally removed from the market, not change name.

As others say it looks fake, if AMD gonna increase the core count per die 12-core is more plausible and dual socket TR is probably gonna steal some of EPYC sales which is not good while being too niche of a product

Long live the “pencil trick!”

No.....Because it is fake?

How can they not reach 5 GHz on a 8c/16t part, but can on 32/46c 64/96t parts with its BASE clock higher than most of the other that are boost???????????????

This really seems fake (and click bait). We saw this and chose not to front page it for those reasons.

Oh, links please....

Why post it when its clearly BS?

Why do you need link? If I have direct contacts, its easy way ask them via social media. I have many more good contacts. One example (but I did not solved with this guy) U can se we are friends and he is working in AMD.

 

[EarthDog]

Because anyone can say such things is why... I appreciate you showing me facebook image of some random AMD guy though.

 

[Markosz]

Sorry, but fake as f....

Look at those Threadrippers, higher core count, but also much much higher clock speed?
If 64 core BASE 5Ghz speed doesn't smell fake, then nothing does.

Something important is missing and it's the -amost certain to be made- 6C/12T CPUs. Very huge absense given the great success of the 1st gen's 1600(X) and 2nd gen's 2600(X) Ryzen cpu series.

That will be the new Ryzen 3's. Using either one 6 core chiplet and a dummy chiplet+IO die or using 6 core chiplet and navi die+IO die.

Its fake, total bulshit to improve the views on video. I have also confirmed by AMD, thats fake info.

Wow AMD confirmed to you specifically that it's a fake? Man you have connections bro.

800mhz over the current Gen chip with double the core overhead. Yep sure, I will believe it when I see it.

People get too caught up in clockspeeds saying 5Ghz boost is impossible. Actually percentage gains are under 15% for pure clockspeed. The rest comes from IPC improvements. Seems doable considering 7nm advantages at the same power. Also chiplets allow better speed binning.

He didn't say anything about TR, the youtuber I mean.

The chart shows 5ghz base clocks on the 3990wx. Even a 5ghz boost clock is a substantial gain for these, binning this early in the game will be curious. We already saw the binning wasn't the greatest with the current gens.

Yeah i agree that 5Ghz base is not doable, i guess it is meant as 5Ghz boost but the placement is wrong but then again the chart has several errors in it like the Duron branding which i think is unlikely to be brought back. Even official AMD slides have errors in them from time to time.

Its possible, just seemingly not with 32/38 cores and 64/96t. If the 8c/16t part can't do it (according to that sheet), then surely the larger parts can't. Can you imagine the TDP on those things with 6 chiplets, LOL.

At 4.2 across 32 cores I pull over 800w at the wall. My chip is a reasonably good bin at that.

That's because TR's being clocked way beyond it's ideal efficiency curve, also in part due to 14nm GF being unsuitable for high frequencies. TSMC's 7nm should help a lot more in this regard.

Another variable is architectural changes that may allow the chip to run at a faster clock. It’s not all 7nm magic. Intel can make 5.0 ghz on 14nm+++. It seems like 2xxx Ryzen is architecturally limited to its current max clocks, not fabrication limited. Ryzen 3xxx is both a new process and a revised architecture.

Don't forget that TSMC's 16/12nm and Samsung/GloFo 14/12nm are really ~20nm if you compare it to the density of Intel 14nm and 22nm. On top of density, Intel's nodes have also higher performance.

So the transition for AMD to 7nm will be a larger jump in density than Intel to 10nm, despite the maximum density of Intel 10nm and TSMC 7nm is fairly comparable. And we still don't know the performance characteristics of the new nodes, which is important for clockspeed and so on, and this could go either way.

It's not fake, if you think is fake then it means that you were always so disappointed by Intel for milking in or amd for hyping in and then never delivered. You need to understand that Lisa Su means when she wants to and the way I see is that Lisa Su wants to change the hype and then the disappointment cases of many years. Believe in, this time AMD will make history.

Also, amd will deny anything at this point.

So weird to use the third person when talking about yourself! Ha!
