AMD Zen 5 rumours

That actually isn't relevant, people feel better about dual 3D CCD's and be that as it may its only for AMD to satisfy that market.

And you know the cost difference for them to produce single x3d to having dual x3d ? And when it doesn't do anything for gaming because of cross ccd latency

I think when games start benefiting using more than 8 cores we'll have ccd that probably has 12 or 16 cores ?

As far as I recall, AMD engineers in talk to GN confirmed only 1 CCD having cache is exactly because adding cache to second CCD doesn't increase performance at all - didn't with 7k series and doesn't with 9k series, as games do not use that and productivity doesn't use it either. It would be increasing cost for no benefit to the end user at all, whilst limiting productivity performance in 7k series (not so much in 9k series but also no benefit at all). Sometimes people ask for something they can't get, because that is not how things actually work.
