Zen 5 Chat

I'm skipping Zen 4 and waiting until Zen 5 to make the jump. My 5900x will easily keep me going until then...and possibly longer depending on how the world pans out with cost of living going up sharply.

DDR5 will also be more affordable by then all being well too.
 
I think the difference going from Zen 3 to Zen 4, won't be as big a jump in performance, as going from Zen 4 to Zen 5. Time will tell but I just get the feeling that Zen 5 is AMDs way of better countering Intels advances. Intel have finally got their head out of their azz and are making progress again. Power hogs yes, but they are advancing quicker now that AMD have given them proper competition.

Remember Intel and their lack of needing to progress, with the 5-10% performance advances, on a quadcore, on multiple platforms, for all those years....now there is real competition.

Surely 2024 is a bit late no? I thought it was going to be towards the end of 2023. I guess they need Zen 4 to be released first and given time for sales.
