AMD Ryzen 7000 has 4 groups of CUs
AMD has confirmed at CES 2022 that it will launch a Zen 4 architecture processor codenamed Raphael this year, belonging to the Ryzen 7000 series, to replace the current Zen 3 architecture Ryzen 5000 series codenamed Vermeer. It was previously reported that AMD may advance the release time to Computex 2022, which will be held in May this year, rather than the second half of the year.
The Ryzen 7000 series integrates the GPU of the RDNA 2 architecture this time, which is a relatively big change for AMD’s desktop market, which means a change in strategy. Twitter user @KOMACHI_ENSAKA revealed that the Ryzen 7000 series may contain 2 groups of WGP/4 sets of CUs with a clock of 1100 MHz. This means that its single-precision floating-point performance is about 0.5 TFLOPs.
In addition to integrating the RDNA 2 architecture core, the new generation of processors will also use a new AM5 socket (LGA 1718), manufactured with TSMC’s 5nm process, IOD will use a 6nm process, support PCIe 5.0 and dual-channel DDR5-5200 memory, and provide a clock of around 5GHz. In addition to supporting USB 3.2, the new platform may also have native USB 4.0. It is understood that the new platform will have at least two 600 series chipsets, namely the flagship X670 and the mainstream B650. There is no news about the entry-level A620.
In addition to AMD’s use of the Zen 4 architecture processor code-named Raphael for desktop platforms. AMD is also planned to be substituted into high-performance notebook platforms, and the high-performance mobile processor codenamed Raphael-H is likely to be a countermeasure to Intel’s mobile platform strategy.
