There are new rumors about the upcoming AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors. The “Granite Ridge” CPUs will be based on the Gen 5 architecture and will be released this year. But what do we currently know about new desktop processors?
First processor based this year Gen 5 Microarchitecture The debut Ryzen 9000 CPUs are intended to replace the current Ryzen 7000 desktop models (test) and bring some upgrades with them. Various rumors about the processor have been circulating for some time, and now new details have emerged. Comes from well-known data Tech-YouTuber and Analyst “High Yield” And confirm some questionable specifications.
AMD Ryzen 7 7700X3D
AMD Ryzen 7 700X3D is the manufacturer’s gaming flagship with 3D cache. The CPU for Socket AM5 offers 8 cores and 16 threads with clock speeds up to 5 GHz. CPU is currently available for approx 405 euros (buy here) For purchase.
Ryzen 9000 is still being released for the AM5 socket
Accordingly, the Ryzen 9000 will be with the processor Socket AM5 (LGA 1718) must be consistent, so that this information can be considered secure. After all, AMD has already confirmed that the socket will be supported with new CPUs for a few more years. The internal memory of CPUs becomes the controller Up to 6,400 MT/s with DDR5 RAM The support TDP will also remain unchanged compared to the current model. Accordingly, TDP classes of 65 Watts, 105 Watts and 170 Watts will probably again have CPUs.
Zen 5 with higher IPC
In addition, it is known that it has been confirmed “On-Package Chiplet Design” It is preserved with his personal. The new Gen 5 CCDs are called “Eldorado” and have eight Gen 5 “Nirvana” cores. According to the analyst, the new cores should achieve a higher IPC (instructions per clock cycle), with an obvious double digit increase (10%+) Also expected, the cores should have similar clock speeds to the current Gen 4 generation.
I/O dies without modification
Further rumors say that there will be no changes to the I/O die. The way AMD should do it Adopt I/O chiplets from Ryzen 7000 (Raphael)., which means no upgrade to the internal GPU. This means that Granite Ridge GPUs will continue to be based on RDNA 2. The number of PCIe 5.0 lanes will also remain unchanged at 28.
CPUs will be built initially N4 method A change to the N3 system is planned at a later date. N3E or N3P would be conceivable here. TSMC is again mentioned as the manufacturer, but Samsung has also been mentioned several times in the rumor mill.
When will the Ryzen 9000 processor be released?
A possible release period is also mentioned for the first time. Accordingly, the Ryzen 9000 processor could be presented between April and June 2024. A presentation as part would be conceivable Computex 2024, which will be held in Taipei from June 4 to June 7 It was previously thought that the processors would not appear until the second half of 2024. With the early presentation, AMD could block the new Intel Core Ultra 200 (Arrow Lake S) processors and “dominate” the desktop market until the new Intel platform is presented.
More processors based on Zen 5 are expected
Analysts think so Ryzen 9000X3D (Granite Ridge X) can quickly follow. These are processors with dedicated 3D cache, which ensures superior gaming performance. Also, the release of “Strix Halo” models, which are new APUs with Zen 5, RDNA 3.5 and XDNA 2, is expected in late 2024. These models should initially boast high GPU performance, reaching a Radeon RX 7600 XT (test) level.
