No architectural change From vega64. A direct die shrink. 25%improvement in performance/W. Not Bad.
But AMD need a New graphic architecture. Asap. GCN is clearly too old now.
Usually, every chips on every wafers is tested because youtube don't want to ship a DOA part to your customer. Bad for business. But, Final Wafer test has a non unsignificant cost per chip ( depending on What your chip is doing in Real life, test can take Time.) You test only so many chip at a...
14lpp is low power. Samsung and gf don't know how to develop a process. Only Intel know how to achieve 1 GHz+ frequencies.
Could our process experts help us?
Perhaps amd has rebadged some i7 6900k.
Process experts told us on this forum that:
1 - 14lpp was low power/low performance and frequencies higher than 2.8/3.2 turbo should not be expected.
2- A0 was first and probably last ryzen spin. Don't expect new revision.
3- ryzen ipc Will be lower than Ivy.
And when first demo showed up, we...
K7 was not that better than p3. At least at first. It was its hability to climb the frequency scale which eventualy allowed k7 to succeed.
We still don't know turbob frequencies.
At least we know it's not3.2 GHz :-)
Let me remind you this quote
“It is the first time in a very long time that we engineers have been given the total freedom to build a processor from scratch and do the best we can do,” said Suzanne Plummer, a director of design engineering at AMD and also a veteran Austin chip engineer, who...
AFAIK broadwell-ep is not clocked at 1.44GHz.
Some guys hère keep saying 14nmLPP is a low power process not suited for hPerformance CPU. But according to thèse guys, low power is also not achievable on this process. Despite s820 & high end exynos being fabbed on it.
At the end of the day, i...
Perhaps amd don't want to let Intel know at what frequencies zen Will ship.
If i was AMD i would not disclose frequencies until zen launch. Let's Intel worrying a little bit.
