Giga Computing, a subsidiary of GIGABYTE and an industry leader in high-performance servers, workstations, and mini-PCs, today announced a newly designed ultra-compact, mainstream mini-PC for the GIGABYTE BRIXs lineup that adopts AMD Ryzen 7030 series processors. With AMD Zen 3 architecture and TSMC 7 nm process, AMD advanced its high-performance, efficient mobile processors for the mobile market to multitask and stay entertained. Even while adopting a compact size, all new mainstream BRIXs still delivers powerful computing that fits perfectly in any IoT deployment, whether for office use, education use, home use, digital signage, medical care, or KIOSK.

The most recent generation of mainstream BRIXs products in 2023 adopt an all-new chassis design. Computing performance has increased, but the design does not require an increase in the size of the chassis. Its appearance has curved, soft, and twisted lines with a liveliness that makes it very unobtrusive. By the way it was assembled and layered, and designing oblique angles around the base, a sense of simplicity is created to achieve a lightweight design. This allows users to enjoy ultimate computing performance while also having a stylish and elegant product.

The AMD Radeon RX 7600 mainstream graphics card slides a little closer to its ideal price, with an online retailer price-cut sending it down to $249, about $20 less than its MSRP of $269. The cheapest RX 7600 graphics card in the market right now is the MSI RX 7600 MECH 2X Classic, going for $249 on Amazon; followed by the XFX RX 7600 SWFT 210 at $258, and the ASRock RX 7600 Challenger at $259.99.

The sliding prices of the RX 7600 should improve its prospects against the upcoming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060, which leaked 3DMark benchmarks show to be around 17% faster than the previous-generation RTX 3060 (12 GB) and 30% faster than its 8 GB variant. Our real-world testing puts the RX 7600 about 15% faster than the RTX 3060 (12 GB) at 1080p, which means there could be an interesting square-off between the RTX 4060 and RX 7600. NVIDIA has announced $299 as the baseline price for the RTX 4060, which should put pressure on AMD partners to trim prices of the RX 7600 to below the $250-mark.

Hardware leaker MEGAsizeGPU has uploaded photos of unreleased G.Skill DIMMs—they claim that the leaked hardware "is the world's first 24G*2 DDR5 expo module: F5-6000J4048F24GX2-TZ5NR." The next-gen Trident Z5 memory is said to be rated for a 6000 MT/s data transfer rate, and close-up shots of labels on heatsinks point to the sample units being non-binary 24 GB DDR5 memory modules that can support EXPO profiles for AMD's Ryzen 7000-series CPUs. MEGAsizeGPU claims that "6000 MHz is the sweetspot for Ryzen" (AM5).

Off-screen captures show a PC system booting up in DDR5-6000 mode—within a Windows OS environment, CPU-Z demonstrates that these new Trident Z5 modules are based on SpecTek-made 24Gb DRAM ICs (instead of binary 16Gb)—SpecTek is a division working under Micron Technology. G.SKILL will likely be selling non-binary Z5 memory in pairs, so we expect to see matched 48 GB dual-channel kits popping up on the market soon. MEGAsizeGPU did not mention anything about pricing or availability. Kingston debuted its own non-binary memory offerings at Computex 2023, but presentation material on hand did not mention whether their new models support AMD's Extended Profiles for Overclocking (EXPO).

AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT will be a much-needed performance-segment addition to the company's Radeon RX 7000-series, which has a massive performance gap between the enthusiast-class RX 7900 series, and the mainstream RX 7600. A report by "Moore's Law is Dead" makes a sensational claim that it is based on a whole new ASIC that's neither the "Navi 31" powering the RX 7900 series, nor the "Navi 32" designed for lower performance tiers, but something in between. This GPU will be AMD's answer to the "AD103." Apparently, the GPU features the same exact 350 mm² graphics compute die (GCD) as the "Navi 31," but on a smaller package resembling that of the "Navi 32." This large GCD is surrounded by four MCDs (memory cache dies), which amount to a 256-bit wide GDDR6 memory interface, and 64 MB of 2nd Gen Infinity Cache memory.

The GCD physically features 96 RDNA3 compute units, but AMD's product managers now have the ability to give the RX 7800 XT a much higher CU count than that of the "Navi 32," while being lower than that of the RX 7900 XT (which is configured with 84). It's rumored that the smaller "Navi 32" GCD tops out at 60 CU (3,840 stream processors), so the new ASIC will enable the RX 7800 XT to have a CU count anywhere between 60 to 84. The resulting RX 7800 XT could have an ASIC with a lower manufacturing cost than that of a theoretical Navi 31 with two disabled MCDs (>60 mm² of wasted 6 nm dies), and even if it ends up performing within 10% of the RX 7900 XT (and matching the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti in the process), it would do so with better pricing headroom. The same ASIC could even power mobile RX 7900 series, where the smaller package and narrower memory bus will conserve precious PCB footprint.

Oracle today introduced the latest generation of the Oracle Exadata platforms, the X10M, delivering unrivaled performance and availability for all Oracle Database workloads. Starting at the same price as the previous generation, these platforms support higher levels of database consolidation with more capacity and offer dramatically greater value than previous generations. Thousands of organizations, large and small, run their most critical and demanding workloads on Oracle Exadata including the majority of the largest financial, telecom, and retail businesses in the world.

"Our 12th generation Oracle Exadata X10M continues our strategy to provide customers with extreme scale, performance, and value, and we will make it available everywhere—in the cloud and on-premises," said Juan Loaiza, executive vice president, Mission-Critical Database Technologies, Oracle. "Customers that choose cloud deployments also benefit from running Oracle Autonomous Database, which further lowers costs by delivering true pay-per-use and eliminating database and infrastructure administration."

AMD's flagship graphics card, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX, based on the RDNA3 architecture, is seeing its street pricing in fall, as the cheapest custom-design card can be had for as low as $881. The XFX Radeon RX 7900 XTX Speedster Merc 310 is listed on Amazon for $979, with a $97 checkbox coupon that sends its price down to $881. The next cheapest card is the Sapphire RX 7900 XTX Pulse, going for $899 after a $100 checkbox coupon on its $999 price. Meanwhile, the RX 7900 XT can be had for as low as $719 with an $80 coupon. Considering that the RX 7900 XTX has shown performance at-par or better than the GeForce RTX 4080, with ray tracing performance comparable to the RTX 3090 Ti, this is tremendous value, given that $881 is what some premium RTX 4070 Ti cards are being sold at.

TrendForce reports that explosive growth in generative AI applications like chatbots has spurred significant expansion in AI server development in 2023. Major CSPs including Microsoft, Google, AWS, as well as Chinese enterprises like Baidu and ByteDance, have invested heavily in high-end AI servers to continuously train and optimize their AI models. This reliance on high-end AI servers necessitates the use of high-end AI chips, which in turn will not only drive up demand for HBM during 2023~2024, but is also expected to boost growth in advanced packaging capacity by 30~40% in 2024.

TrendForce highlights that to augment the computational efficiency of AI servers and enhance memory transmission bandwidth, leading AI chip makers such as Nvidia, AMD, and Intel have opted to incorporate HBM. Presently, Nvidia's A100 and H100 chips each boast up to 80 GB of HBM2e and HBM3. In its latest integrated CPU and GPU, the Grace Hopper Superchip, Nvidia expanded a single chip's HBM capacity by 20%, hitting a mark of 96 GB. AMD's MI300 also uses HBM3, with the MI300A capacity remaining at 128 GB like its predecessor, while the more advanced MI300X has ramped up to 192 GB, marking a 50% increase. Google is expected to broaden its partnership with Broadcom in late 2023 to produce the AISC AI accelerator chip TPU, which will also incorporate HBM memory, in order to extend AI infrastructure.

AMD today announced that its AMD EPYC Embedded Series processors are powering Hewlett Packard Enterprise's new modular, multi-protocol storage solution, HPE Alletra Storage MP. AMD EPYC Embedded processors provide the performance and energy efficiency required for enterprise-class storage systems with high availability, resilience, and industry-leading connectivity and longevity.

The HPE Alletra Storage MP supports a disaggregated infrastructure with multiple storage protocols on the same hardware that can scale independently for performance and capacity. Configurable for block and file stores, HPE Alletra Storage MP gives customers the ability to deploy, manage, and orchestrate data and storage services via the HPE GreenLake edge-to-cloud platform, regardless of the workload and storage protocol. This eliminates data silos, reducing cost and complexity while improving performance.

By working closely with AMD to optimize the Ryzen 7000 Series firmware for server usage, we can bring a range of solutions with new technologies with PCIe 5.0, DDR5 memory, and very high clock rates to market faster, which allows organizations to reduce costs and offer advanced solutions to their clients."

CD Projekt RED has released the new Patch v1.63 for Cyberpunk 2077 which includes several quest, open world, UI, visual, as well as PC-and console-specific improvements and fixes, as it is rolling out on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. While there are plenty of changes, PC users will be glad that it improves performance of DLSS Frame Generation on AMD CPUs, which had been hit by stuttering issues. The Cyberpunk 2077 Patch v1.63 also fixes visual color issues with DLSS and Path Tracing.

The new patch also fixes Photo Mode issues, as well as a crash issue when using Razer Chroma. There are plenty of other quest, open world, miscellaneous, console-specific and REDmod fixes, which you can check out it the full release notes.

TrendForce reports that inventory reduction in Q1 fell short of expectations and coincided with the industry's traditional off-season, leading to overall subdued demand. However, due to new product release and a surge in urgent orders for specialized specifications, Q1 revenue of the global top ten IC design houses remained on par with 4Q22, with a modest QoQ increase of 0.1% for a total revenue of US$33.86 billion. Changes in ranking included Cirrus Logic slipping from the top ten as well as the ninth and tenth positions being replaced by WillSemi and MPS, respectively. The rest of the rankings remained unchanged.

The smartphone supply continues to grapple with overstock, but AI applications are entering a period of rapid growth
Qualcomm witnessed an uptick in its revenue, largely attributed to the launch and subsequent shipments of its latest flagship chip, the Snapdragon 8Gen2. The company saw 6.1% in QoQ growth in its smartphone business, which effectively offset the downturn from its automotive and IoT sectors. As a result, Qualcomm's Q1 revenue increased marginally by 0.6%, cementing its position at the top of the pack with a market share of 23.5%.

GIGABYTE unveiled the first Mini-ITX motherboard to feature the entry-level AMD A620 chipset. The UD-A620I-X offers a comprehensive I/O feature-set. The board draws power from a 24-pin ATX and a single 8-pin EPS, and uses a 9-phase VRM to power the SoC. This board is restricted to 65 W TDP processors (7600, 7700, 7900 and possibly Ryzen PRO desktop processors that are 65 W). The processor is wired to two DDR5 DIMM slots, and a PCI-Express 4.0 x16, which is really all you need for this generation of graphics cards.

A downside of the A620 platform is that it doesn't support PCIe Gen 5 on even the CPU-attached M.2 NVMe slots—the one on this board is Gen 4. Display connectivity on the UD-A620I includes an HDMI and DisplayPort. Networking interfaces include Wi-Fi 6 wireless, and 2.5 GbE wired. Storage connectivity, besides the Gen 4 NVMe slot, includes two SATA 6 Gbps ports. You get at least two USB 3.2 ports from the processor, four USB 3.2 type-A ports on the rear I/O, an internal type-E port (for security keys), and an internal USB 3.2 header. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Gamers Nexus has uploaded a video feature dedicated to the history of AMD's Zen CPU architecture—editor-in-chief and founder Stephen Burke ventured to Team Red's Austin, Texas-based test and engineering campus. Longer and more in-depth coverage of his lab tour will be released at a later date, but today's upload included an interesting segment covering unreleased hardware. The Gamers Nexus crew spent some time looking at several examples of current and past generation AMD 3D V-Cache CPUs. Prototype Ryzen 7000-series Zen 4 designs were shown off by principal engineer Amit Mehra and technical team member Bill Alverson. They also brought out older 5000-series Zen 3 units that never reached retail—the 16-core Ryzen 9 5950X3D was demonstrated as having a 3.5 GHz base clock, and it can boost up to 4.1 GHz. The 12-core Ryzen 9 5900X3D had 3.5 GHz base and 4.4 GHz boost clocks.

Team Red only sells one AM4 3D V-Cache model at the moment, in the form of its well received Ryzen 7 5800X3D CPU. It was released over a year ago, but recent price cuts have resulted in increased unit sales—system builders looking to maximize the potential of their older generation Ryzen 5000-series compatible mainboards are snapping up 5800X3Ds. AMD could be readying a cheaper alternative, with previous reports proposing that a "Ryzen 5 5600X3D" is positioned to take on Intel's 13th Gen Core i5 series (with DDR4). The unreleased Ryzen 9 5950X3D and 5900X3D have 3D V-Cache stacks on both of their CCDs (granting 192 MB of L3 cache), which is unique given that all retail 3D V-Cache CPUs (released so far) restrict this to a single CCD stack. Apparently AMD decided to stick with the latter setup due to it offering the best balance of performance and efficiency, plus gaming benchmarks demonstrated that there was not much of a difference between the configurations.

Harukaze5719 has brought attention to a curious registration of unreleased AsRock graphics cards at the Eurasian Economic Commission (ECC) regulatory office. The self-described (South) Korean PC Tech enthusiast has found out that ASRock is likely preparing for an imminent launch of custom design AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT PG 16 GB and RX 7800 XT PGW 16 GB models.

No specifications were found in the ECC registration, so it is too early to confirm whether the leaked RX 7800 XT series is based on AMD's RDNA 3 Navi 31 or Navi 32 GPU. Igor Lab's simulated a hypothetical version via the benchmarking of a workstation Radeon Pro W7800 (Navi 31) 32 GB graphics card. Model codes (registered on May 18 2023) indicate that the two AsRock Radeon RX 7800 XT models could sport the company's Phantom Gaming (PG) triple-fan cooling solution, possibly available in a standard shade or a (PGW) white option.

AMD recently revealed its Instinct MI300X GPU at their Data Center and AI Technology Premiere event on Tuesday (June 15). The keynote presentation did not provide any details about the new accelerator model's power consumption, but that did not stop one tipster - Hoang Anh Phu - from obtaining this information from Team Red's post-event footnotes. A comparative observation was made: "MI300X (192 GB HBM3, OAM Module) TBP is 750 W, compared to last gen, MI250X TBP is only 500-560 W." A leaked Giga Computing roadmap from last month anticipated server-grade GPUs hitting the 700 W mark.

NVIDIA's Hopper H100 took the crown - with its demand for a maximum of 700 W - as the most power-hungry data center enterprise GPU until now. The MI300X's OCP Accelerator Module-based design now surpasses Team Green's flagship with a slightly greater rating. AMD's new "leadership generative AI accelerator" sports 304 CDNA 3 compute units, which is a clear upgrade over the MI250X's 220 (CDNA 2) CUs. Engineers have also introduced new 24G B HBM3 stacks, so the MI300X can be specced with 192 GB of memory (as a maximum), the MI250X is limited to a 128 GB memory capacity with its slower HBM2E stacks. We hope to see sample units producing benchmark results very soon, with the MI300X pitted against H100.

AMD today released a one-off driver update specifically for the Radeon RX 7600 graphics card, with optimization for F1 23 (besides features consistent with the most recent AMD Software Adrenalin 23.5.2. Besides this optimization, the company released a couple of fixes specific to the RX 7600: sub-optimal performance or stuttering noticed in some VR games; and an intermittent application crash with Blender. The company also released AMD Software Adrenalin 22.40.57.06 for other cards (that's RX 7000 and older except RX 7600); with F1 23 optimization. Since this driver release isn't from AMD's main Adrenalin software trunk, we are not hosting it.

Simply NUC, Inc, a leading mini computer solutions company, today announced a new Simply NUC designed and branded mini PC product family called Moonstone. Equipped with the latest AMD Ryzen 7000 processors in a compact 4x4 design with an innovative cooling solution, Moonstone delivers top-tier computing performance for a wide range of usages. Supporting up to 64 GB of DDR5-4800 high-speed RAM and up to 16 TB of storage, Moonstone will increase your computing output while keeping a minimal footprint on both your desk and energy bill.

"Perfect for working or gaming, we saw an opportunity to set the new standard of innovation-driven mini PC performance," said Aaron Rowsell, Simply NUC co-CEO, "Moonstone is the highest performing 4x4 ever launched."

An AMD Navi 32 die was belatedly observed in a Forbes video feature on the company's CEO and President Lisa Su—this small tidbit fired up the PC hardware community once again with speculation about why Team Red has not yet released proper mid-range RDNA 3 game-oriented models. A handful of news sites have recently reported that a Navi 32 GPU sits at the heart of AMD's fairly new workstation-grade AMD Radeon Pro W7800 32 GB GDDR6 graphics card, but fact checkers have quickly pointed out that the $2499 (MSRP) product is actually based on Navi 31. Sites have theorized about the makeup of a possible "Radeon RX 7800" GPU and assumed that a similarly named/numbered workstation model would offer a preview of things to come.

Igor Wallossek (of Igor's Lab fame) has conducted an interesting investigation into this matter. He has put a Radeon Pro W7800 test unit through its paces as a gaming card, but the high-end nature of the Navi 31 GPU leads him to believe that the performance level on tap would be roughly equivalent to a hypothetical "RX 7800 XT." Igor assumes that his simulated gaming card will have access to a smaller pool of VRAM (16 GB instead of 32 GB)—he achieves this via the memtestcl program, since "RDNA 3 no longer allows us to emulate the cards directly." He also sets provisions for differing power consumption due to the workstation card being an efficiency-focused product: "The Radeon Pro W7800 has a TBP of 260 watts, my own extrapolation results in a TBP of around 270 watts for the RTX 7800XT based on the efficiency values of the other two Navi 31 cards."

Razer today launched the 2023 Razer Blade 14. This segment-disruptive 14-inch notebook packs gaming performance comparable to much thicker enthusiast-class notebooks; in a thin-and-light form-factor comparable to business/commercial notebooks. Across the market landscape, the Razer Blade 14 is designed to compete with the Apple MacBook Pro of a comparable screen size. Razer is timing launch of this notebook with that of the AMD Ryzen 7040HS "Phoenix" processor, because it's based on one. The notebook measures 31 cm x 22.8 cm x 1.79 cm (WxDxH with lid closed), and is 11.5% thinner than the 2022 Razer Blade 14. It's also 9% lighter, at 1.83 kg. Despite its size, the notebook packs a 68.1 Wh battery, which when paired with the rather high-end hardware, offers up to 10 hours of productivity.

Under the hood, the Razer Blade 14 (2023) rocks an AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS "Phoenix" processor, with an 8-core/16-thread "Zen 4" CPU, Ryzen AI accelerator, and Radeon 780M (12 CU) integrated graphics. The main graphics muscle, though, is the GeForce RTX 4070 Ada with 140 W TGP. The notebook provides the ability to switch between the discrete- and integrated graphics. The notebook also comes with two DDR5 SO-DIMM slots for up to 64 GB of socketed DDR5 memory; and an M.2-2280 Gen 4 NVMe slot for the main storage, a Gen 4 SSD. The WLAN module is also socketed, and offers Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2. The display is a 14-inch, 16:10 aspect-ratio QHD+ (2560 x 1600 pixels) unit, with 240 Hz refresh rate, and 3 ms response time. The display has 500 nits maximum brightness.

AMD today launched its Ryzen 7040HS line of mobile processors targeting consumer notebooks of conventional thickness and portability, which AMD considers thin-and-light. This class of devices is positioned between ultraportable notebooks, and gaming notebooks or portable workstations. AMD already powers several segments of gaming notebooks and portable workstations with its Ryzen 7045HX series "Dragon Range" mobile processors, with CPU core counts ranging between 6 and 16; as well as the ultraportable segment with the Ryzen 7040U series; but while the 7045 series have their TDP rated in the 45 W to 65 W range, and the Ryzen 7040U in the 15 W to 28 W range, the company was lacking a current-generation processor lineup in the 35 W to 54 W segment, which the company is filling up with today's Ryzen 7040HS series launch.

The Ryzen 7040HS series processors are based on the 4 nm "Phoenix" monolithic silicon, just like the 7040U series, and is based on a combination of "Zen 4" microarchitecture for its CPU, RDNA3 graphics architecture for its iGPU, and the new XDNA architecture for its Ryzen AI on-chip accelerator. Physically, the "Phoenix" silicon features an 8-core/16-thread "Zen 4" CPU. Each core has 1 MB of dedicated L2 cache, and a 16 MB L3 cache is shared among the 8 cores. The iGPU features 12 RDNA3 compute units, which amount to 768 stream processors, along with 24 AI Accelerators (specific to the RDNA3 architecture); 24 Ray Accelerators, 48 TMUs, and 32 ROPs. The iGPU meets the full DirectX 12 Ultimate logo requirements. The Ryzen AI XDNA accelerator features 20 AI acceleration tiles, each with local memory.

AMD on Tuesday (June 13) launched the EPYC 9004 "Bergamo" 128-core/256-thread high density compute server processor, and with it, debuted the new "Zen 4c" CPU microarchitecture. A lot had been made out about Zen 4c in the run up to yesterday's launch, such as rumors that it is a Zen 4 "lite" core that has lesser number-crunching muscle, and hence lower IPC, and that Zen 4c is AMD's answer to Intel's E-core architectures, such as "Gracemont" and "Crestmont." It turns out that it's neither a lite version of Zen 4, nor is it an E-core, but a physically compacted version of the Zen 4 core, with identical number crunching machinery.

First things first—Zen 4c has the same exact IPC as Zen 4 (that's performance at a given clock-speed). This is because its front-end, execution stage, load/store component, and internal cache hierarchy is exactly the same. It has the same 88-deep load queue, 64-deep store queue, the same 675,000 µop cache, the exact same INT+FP issue width of 10+6, the same exact INT register file, the same scheduler, and cache latencies. The L1I and L1D caches are the same 32 KB in size as "Zen 4," and so is the dedicated L2 cache, at 1 MB.

Supermicro, Inc., a Total IT Solution Provider for Cloud, AI/ML, Storage, and 5G/Edge, is announcing that its entire line of H13 AMD based-systems is now available with support for 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors, based on "Zen 4c" architecture, and 4th Gen AMD EPYC processors with AMD 3D V-Cache technology.
