AMD Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) - *** NO COMPETITOR HINTING ***

[0h_no_not_again]

Interesting, potential for another iteration with an improved IO die maybe?

Papermaster said that the IO die is now what's limiting the performance, and a new IO die is what's required to make another jump in performance. He also said that the next IO die will include PCIe 5.0 and a new memory controller complex, suggesting DDR5 - no surprises there right?

Ultimately this means there won't be another big leap in performance on the current socket/motherboards, but we might see a slight bump here or there.

obviously they will have to change it for AM5 (or whatever it will be called) its all about the latency etc...

Who here also has a gigabyte MB and installed the newest BIOS & chipset driver? Thanks to this combo my cold boot was at a nigh impossible 5s from pushing the button to desktop. I only use 1smus power plan so nothing else done.
