AMD Zen 5 rumours

Quickly ran it and saw 53-54MS. Is it purely a CPU test?
Yes, CPU does all the work. Uses Vulkan to display the result. I get 60-62ms but am using ECO 65W. Need to add special partitioning so I can load better scenes.
If you leave it running a min, the image quality get nice, can also change the Emission Colour in the right panel, click reset or it will mix the new colour with the old.

hold left mouse down to move camera and W,S,A,D,Q,E button move (when left mouse is down).

That's a 46% gain... yeah right. :cry:
Why not? Ryzen 1800 was in Cinebench R15 about 65% faster (single core), than FX-8350, if I recall correctly. 7700x vs 5700x is over 30% jump in single core in Cinebench R23 and about 45% in multi core. If they made some big changes to the Ryzen core again, ~45% isn't even that big of a jump, we've seen bigger in the not so distant past between generations. Seems very plausible to me, actually. The question I would have is - how much power was used by it with that performance? It's not that hard to make fast CPUs these days, it's hard to make them not guzzle down a small powerstation whilst achieving high scores.

41% IPC?


Anyway, after clicking through multiple links, because in 2024 "news" is when you just post a link to another news website, which posted a link to another news website and finding the actual source takes effort


And here is the original source of the performance claims, this video

The says the performance comes from 40% IPC increase and clock speed increase to 6.1ghz

If we see 40%+ anywhere it's going to be some specific (probably AVX-512) workload or something. Expecting 15% IPC + 5% frequency

What instruction set does Cinebench R24 use? Cause RedGamingTech posted the bench numbers

If it's AVX512 then yeah I'd say it's probably not representative of overall performance cause it's being rumoured that Zen4 includes new advancements specifically for AVX512 and games don't really use this

Is this was anything like real Intel would be in big trouble. Sounds like the usual, hype something up for clicks, then get more clicks slagging it off because it didn't match the hype :rolleyes:

As much as very rapid progress sounds nice it gets expensive very quickly. Remember the days when your PC could be outdated junk within 12 months? Not much fun unless you have a money printing press :cry:
 
I think we’ll be lucky to see +20%.
It's been a persistent rumour for around a year now that ALU count of Zen5 is going up by 50% from 4 to 6 ALUs per core, so in raw performance that's a 50% increase. In reality, it could be more like the 20-30% rumoured depending on workloads, and the ones that are really ALU bottlenecked might see the full 50%. Excavator to Zen1 was a 100% increase in ALU from 2 to 4 which netted a ~40-50% increase in IPC, of course AMD might have learned a few things since then and the Zen5 architecture could be much better suited to take fuller advantage of the ALU increase than Zen1 was.

Do you want to have a laugh?

Final iteration of AMD's 4 ALU 8 core Zen CPU.

Hoping zen 5 ipc to be 2x my 9900k as it’s definitely holding back my 6950xt at 1440p 165…
