Zen 3D V-Cache Ryzen CPUs May be Available in December 2021

They did but then backed down so I wouldn't be supprised if they followed through this time especially as board makers have been bring out new X570s that they will want to sell.

yup......

I've not seen anything on costs of the new chip yet but would expect them to be a chunk more than current, here's hoping the chunk is comparable to the uplift

5900X is £500 and 5950X is £750, personally i think the 5900X should be £450 with the 5950X £600.
 
Presumably that 768MiB includes the 32MiB already included in each chiplet since the lump o cache stacked onto a chiplet is 64MiB. So to be super accurate, AMD can stack a maximum of 512MiB into their CPU designs.

That's a metric f-ton of cache and only 1 stacked layer to achieve it.

Right 768MB of L3 Cache.

I'm looking at my 5800X and thinking 32MB, that's quite a lot for an 8 core CPU, Intel are only putting half that on the 11900K.

Along comes Zen 3D and slams a gigantic 768MB L3 willy on the table!
 
I remember looking at Intel’s super high end (£10k plus per CPU!) 4/8 core Xeon line up with 60mb of cache and thinking that’s a lot of cache to work with.

A few years later and AMD have beat Intel by a factor of 12!

Oh and the small difference of 16x the cores and for less money.

Its going to be very interesting to see what Zen 3 can do with that much cache to blow Ops out in to.

The CPU tech war is definitely back on with AMD once again making all the innovations that matter. Sorry if that comes off as fanboi'ish but its true and not for the first time.
 
Which 10nm CPUs are we looking at as Alderlake seems to be faster than Ryzen 5000 core for core?

Ok... We are talking about CPU's that you can buy now, Alderlake is speculation at this point, we don't know what the power consumption is yet.

Intel 1165G7: 28 Watts, Score 4,904 (10nm SuperFin)

Ryzen 4800U: 15 Watts, Score 9,286 (TSMC 7nm)

9,286 / 4,904 = 1.89 (+89%) That's 89% better performance with near half the power

Ryzen 5800U: 15 Watts????? Score 11,203 (TSMC 7nm)

11,203 / 4,904 = 2.28 (+128%) That's 128% better performance again with near half the power.

It equated to around 400% better performance per watt.

Are you honestly going to sit there and try to tell me that is purely Intel 10nm SuperFin vs TSMC 7nm? That AMD's CPU architecture has absolutely nothing to do with it?

How is it twice as fast core for core though when the example your showing is a 4/8 vs a 8/16?

We know Intel has issues with power consumption which is why they are going big little so they can scale up the core count without hugely increasing power.

So you agree AMD's architecture is more power efficient?

Intel don't make a 10nm CPU with 8 cores. we have to work with what they do make and it valid because we are talking about performance per watt.
 
10nm 11800h says hello. :D

Yeah ok, 45 Watts, whats its performance, no seriously its already using 3X the power, is it 3X faster than AMD's 8 core 15 Watt CPU? I'm going to stick my neck on the line and say that it isn't, that its no faster than AMD's 15 Watt part, i think i'm pretty safe in keeping my head.
 
AMDs CPUs scale better with lower power while Intels scale better with higher power, a proper comparison would be the 11800H vs 5800H or 5900HX and with all using the same 45w power. SC is about equal with the 5900HX while AMD is a bit faster in multicore as SMT is better than HT.

This is a disingenuous argument, its not in good faith, pushing a 35 Watt CPU that already scores higher than a competitors 45 Watt CPU and then make the calculation again is just normalising inefficiency curves, a 105 Watt Ryzen 5800X score 60% higher than a 45 Watt 11800H, you could make the argument the Intel CPU has a very similar PPW to the AMD chip and you would be right, just as you are right that running the 5800H at the same power level as the 11800H the 5800H may only score about 20% higher and therefore only has about 20% higher PPW.

And with that one might say yes Intel scale better at higher power, so lets turn that round, why not push the 11800H to the same level of performance as the 5800X, how much power is it using? 105 Watts? do you think? I don't, i think its more like 200 to 300 Watts and that's the reality with ALL these chips when you push them that far outside of the most power efficient zone.
 
Fine, doesn't matter, did you read anything i said because it didn't seem to get through?

Probably because AMD boost algorithm is more sensitive to thermals so start dropping clocks as temps increase.

Right, 5700G 14,211 at 45 Watts.

5800H they tested 12,500 at 75 Watts.

What they are measuring there is thermal throttling, not power scaling, they don't know it but the people who made this slide are idiots.
 
The 11800H is Rocketlake, the IPC is very similar to Zen 3.

At 13,000 point its at 95 Watts, keep pushing it to 16,200 what's the power consumption?
 
1800X, same performance as the 6900X at half the power, Intel on their 14nm, AMD on a brand new Gloabal Foundries 14nm.
----------

I have been watching this space for about 25 years.

In all that time several significant breakthroughs in CPU's have been made, by Intel and AMD.

Intel practically invented the CPU, before X86 we had logic processors and each one had to be hardwired for a specific task, so you would have lots of them on a board, Intel created a programmable processor that could be programmed to do many different tasks through software extensions, X86 and with it the Central Processing Unit was born, along with it the IBM Personal Computer.

Since then its mostly AMD who have made the significant changes to the CPU, and each time an army of Intel shills downplayed or out right poo poo'ed on everything AMD ever did, despite nothing that Intel did in competition to AMD's innovations ever working, i still see people bleeting on that Itanium was better, it was ####### horrendous, slow, unstable, difficult to program for and MASSIVE power consumption, no one wanted it, IT died a slow expensive death for good reason.

You're not a shill or even remotely a fanboi @Joxeon so i don't get it.

Alderlake will be good, the 12900K will beat the 5950X by a small margin, ok fine, Intel are fighting back, we knew they would eventually, but it will pull twice as much power doing it, not because AMD are on a better node, because Intel's architecture just isn't as efficient.

I certainly don't think Alderlake will be as efficient as Zen 3 but it does represent a big leap forward in overall performance and performance per watt for Intel over the shambles that was rocket lake.

Yes, it will. :)
 
I agree with that. But you have not noticed any AMD die hands/fan boys? Just Intel ones?
They exist on both sides but there is an added element now, since Sandy Bridge Intel are used to winning so they are particularly salty to see AMD BTFO'ing them, AMD'ers are used to losing and now that they are winning they aren't particularly cordial in victory.

Right now in terms of the hardware AMD's victory over Intel is absolute, even after Alderlake AMD still have many aspects that favour them and that's with older outgoing hardware. AMD are no pushovers these days, again, and that's very frustrating for some. They just keep getting better and better and........

Amd doesnt have a lead over intel like intel did over bulldozer. People making it out like zen3 has 60%+ ipc over skylake :rolleyes:

I have never seen anyone say AMD did, but thier performance and efficiency lead over Intel is substantial enough to be obvious to all but the most ignorant to this space, its substantial enough to have killed Intel's prised HEDT segment stone dead.
AMD's mainstream CPU's are faster than Intel's HEDT. AMD's HEDT are on an entirely different level. One that is utterly unachievable by Intel.
 
Show me. Link right here one single post where anybody has said. Besides, what in the blue hell does that have to do with anything? The Intel circle jerk is perfectly content to shout loudly about single digit wins over Ryzen in a single metric when that's all Intel had going for it, but because AMD's dominance isn't "as big" as the Faildozer era it doesn't count?

Seriously, how can you not recoil in embarrassment at the utter crap you incessantly post?

Ask him to point to an Intel CPU that can get 40,000 Points in R23, let alone 80,000 points.... the raw performance lead is massive. and the PPW advantage ain't bad either.....
