  • AMD Zen 5 architecture EPYC processor will have 256 cores and TDP will reach 600W

    There is still quite a while before the release of the Zen 4 architecture EPYC processor code-named Genoa. Normally, it will not be launched until next year. However, recently there has been news about the Zen 5 architecture EPYC processor, which involves the number of cores and TDP. It is understood that the Zen 5 architecture EPYC processor code-named Turin will replace the Zen 4 architecture EPYC processor code-named Genoa in the future, and is compatible with the SP5 server platform.

    According to Twitter user @greymon55, the Zen 5 architecture EPYC processor will have two configurations, 192 cores with 384 threads and 256 cores with 512 threads. Compared with the Zen 4 architecture EPYC processor, the number of cores has been greatly increased, and it should support DDR5-5600 to DDR5-6400 memory. It is understood that the EPYC processor code-named Turin belongs to the EPYC 7005 series and will not be released until the end of 2023 or even 2024.

    In addition, Twitter user @ExecuFix added to the relevant situation, saying that the TDP of the EPYC processor with the Zen 5 architecture code-named Turin can reach up to 600W. It is rumored that the EPYC 7004 series may have a model with the highest power configuration of 400W, but it is still far from it. According to the leaked information, the SP5 (LGA 6096) socket area is 76.0 x 80.0mm (6080mm²), which is the largest socket designed by AMD so far, with a peak power of 700W.

  • AMD Zen 5 architecture will also use large and small core architectures

    News about AMD’s future Zen 5 architecture Ryzen 8000 series processors appeared on the Internet. From the perspective of all parties’ news, from Zen 3 to Zen 4 to Zen 5 architecture, the changes are still not small.

    According to the MOEPC report, the Zen 4 architecture processor will be released in 2022. It will be manufactured using a 5nm process and support DDR5 and PCIe Gen5. There are rumors that the RDNA 2 architecture core display will be integrated. The Zen 5 architecture processor code-named Strix Point APU, which belongs to the Ryzen 8000 series, will be manufactured using TSMC’s 3nm process and is expected to be released in 2024. The most surprising thing about the Zen 5 architecture is probably the architecture design. It will be the same as Intel Alder Lake, using the big.LITTLE architecture, with 8 large cores and 4 small cores. In addition, the memory system will have relatively large changes which are closer to the current mobile SoC design.

    Due to the cancellation of Warhol, the XT/Refresh version of the Zen 3 architecture will replace the original Ryzen 6000 series. It is rumored that the Zen 4 architecture started, and AMD is likely to integrate the RDNA 2 architecture core display on the Ryzen 7000 series code-named Raphael. It is not clear how AMD will arrange the CPU and APU on the desktop platform in the future. Since there is still a long time before the official release, we do not rule out further adjustments to the specifications.
