Entering the 5th dimension via wormhole...One thing is for sure: between now and June, the choo choo hype train will reach velocity never seen before!
Your expectations aren’t going to match reality. Zen 5 is a beast and the 40% number isn’t even the whole story.
It took me half an hour to catch up on this thread lol. You guys went nuts!
With what I was told: Per clock, Zen 5 has HIGHER IPC than Apple latest CPU P cores.What do you mean with "isn't even the whole story"? What else is there?
One could say that Apple reached this level of IPC 4 years ago.With what I was told: Per clock, Zen 5 has HIGHER IPC than Apple latest CPU P cores.
AMD will have something to compete with Apple and Qualcomm, not just Intel, apparently.
Yep...Sounds too good to be true, but we'll know everything soon enough.
Rumor is that this is when Zen5 will be presented, but that in store availability will not be until later (July/August or something like that).The proper stage would be computex - June 4th.
Not enough. It's April 1st. The memelords need to dial it up.One thing is for sure: between now and June, the choo choo hype train will reach velocity never seen before!
We need an updated version of this gem:

At the same time, they have been unable to make their cores clock worth a damn. So if the thing is an Everest @ 5.7+ GHz...damn

Reaching Apple's IPC level does not guarantee reaching Apple's efficiency level.With what I was told: Per clock, Zen 5 has HIGHER IPC than Apple latest CPU P cores.
AMD will have something to compete with Apple and Qualcomm, not just Intel, apparently.
Well, QCom's SOC has thernal design of up to 80W.Reaching Apple's IPC level does not guarantee reaching Apple's efficiency level.
It's the best CPU design team out there and they had to leash off the area.Sounds too good to be true
nyo, that's system (ergo wall) power.Well, QCom's SOC has thernal design of up to 80W.
CES'25.When do you guys think Strix Halo reaches laptop OEMs
It's inherently a niche product line.like at least 6 months later from being a niche product line?
Most of these are in ZEN4s Benchmarks as well, and even the figures are kinda lining up: Fortnite, Passmark way below average, Cinebench slightly below, 7-Zip exactly average, V-Ray slightly above, Dolphin and WPrime way above average. So expected ZEN5 IPC avg 25-30%.
We already saw that AMD makes their claims so that they line up with SPEC and I can't deny that, ZEN3 however doesn't get these results in most other Applications, and since ZEN5s claimed SPEC result seems to be 40%+ it looks like it's the same again.
The first bunch of Zen 5 based products will be MCMs with 4nm chips. So there is that.Reaching Apple's IPC level does not guarantee reaching Apple's efficiency level.
Well it does, you just need to clock it Apple clocks and not 6GHz. lol. lmao.does not guarantee reaching Apple's efficiency level.
None.what has Apple's efficiency level lately been in segments such as 5 GHz desktops or 128 core servers?
Desktop Zen 5?I'm guessing that the rollout will be similar to the past few generations where it'll be closer to the end of the year, or maybe into the next before the lower half of the product stack gets released.
I think a lot of people will also want to hold out for a v-cache version and it's hard to peg down when those will release. I could also see AMD holding those back until RDNA4 GPUs are ready to drop.
That to make makes the launch seem a bit lack luster just because the product I really want isn't available. On the plus side at least there will be far fewer teething issues when they do eventually come out.
It's always +1mo for parts sans some exceptions.I suspect it will be released within month (or so) of the announcement
Apple don't do servers or desktop chips.On the other hand, what has Apple's efficiency level lately been in segments such as 5 GHz desktops or 128 core servers?
there was never an M2 Extreme. No CPID has been found for this chip. Just pure speculation.M2 Extreme was literally a dead on arrival part with major scaling issues.
if true, say goodbye to Qualcomm X elite.With what I was told: Per clock, Zen 5 has HIGHER IPC than Apple latest CPU P cores.
Well, they can't.Apple don't do servers or desktop chips.
ughhh.there was never an M2 Extreme.
Something that gets canned on the first attempt never lands in Darwin.No CPID has been found for this chip.
