I thought for sure ryzen would be 14nm until ryzen 3 and ryzen 2 having higher clocks like 4.5ghz.
There talking 7nm for ryzen 2. And the fab is alreading taping out 7nm on other cpu’s plus there talking 7nm for Navi.
Imagine an APU the size of threadripper at 7nm!
EUV hvm is getting closer every day. Samsung also recently confirmed initial 7nm production is still on track for a 2018 release.
EUV litho has come a long way with current machines reaching high enough wafers per hour to start considering mass production and acceptable down times.
Single-channel memory? Please tell me that’s a typo on somebody’s part…keeping both a CPU and a GPU fed with just system memory is already hard enough.
Afraid not. Though it does appear to have room for a 2nd stick by way of a cost increase / upgrade. What surprises me more is the 2400MT max – why not 2667?
Man i am really impressed with what AMD came out with here.
Just for the hell of it i figured id “stress” the die abit, litterally running 19 .rar compress jobs at once(just your run of the mill steam library compressions) while listening to some youtube music at 4k.
And not a glitch, I mean my mechanical harddrive i moaning cause it has to do a billion small writes at once, but the 1600X is just chugging away albeit at 100% capped.
I’ve been very impressed with mine. I’ve pushed the CPU load to 100% along with RAM at 100% and it always leaves my system useable, at least in a responsive way. Did the same thing with the (albeit seven-year-old) Xeon at work and it stalled the system completely.
Oh damn I was just thinking loading that latest Taichi bios and doing more things, and read earlier about agesa 1007 coming for that Raven Ridge
Then its like 2 weeks away and it would be stupid to see effort for week straight just so that I get to recheck everything with that newer BIOS version
