Ja budem pričekal da se nakon Ryzen 9 9950X recenzija slegne prašina, tj. da kojima slučajem ne ispadne kak se čudo voli samozapaliti

i tome slična veselja. I kasnije onda ovisno o situaciji lako presložim (jedan) sadašnji backup komp (Ryzen 5 7600 + MSI B650 Tomahawk Wi-Fi + 128GB DDR5-5600 Faks Helizim Edition) na Zen 5, ako se pokaže da su performanse u skladu s ovim kaj kruži Internetima nakon svih tih službenih predstavljanja.

AMD Granite Ridge and Strix Point Zen 5 die-sizes and transistor counts confirmed

Citiraj:

To begin with, "Strix Point" is a monolithic silicon, which is confirmed to be built on the TSMC N4P foundry node (4 nm). This is a slight upgrade over the N4 node that the company built its previous generation "Phoenix" and "Hawk Point" processors on. The "Strix Point" silicon measures 232.5 mm˛ in area, which is significantly larger than the 178 mm˛ of "Hawk Point" and "Phoenix." The added die area comes from there being 12 CPU cores instead of 8, and 16 iGPU compute units instead of 12; and a larger NPU. There are many other factors, such as the larger 24 MB CPU L3 cache; and the sizes of the "Zen 5" and "Zen 5c" cores themselves.

The "Granite Ridge" desktop processor is a chiplet-based processor, much like the Ryzen 7000 "Raphael." AMD is confirmed to be reusing the 6 nm client I/O die (cIOD) from "Raphael." This chip measures 122 mm˛, and packs 3.4 billion transistors. For reference, the cIOD of Ryzen 5000 "Vermeer" and Ryzen 3000 "Matisse" is built on the Global Foundries 12 nm node, measures a similar 125 mm˛, but with a much lower transistor count of 2.09 billion. The key contributor to the transistor count increase is the tiny iGPU that the Socket AM5 cIOD comes with. It may have just 1 workgroup processor (2 CU), but comes with the same display engines and media engines as the iGPU on APUs.

And now, onto the CPU complex dies (CCDs), the key area of silicon innovation for AMD desktop processors. The 8-core "Zen 5" CCD is codenamed "Eldora," and is built on the 4 nm foundry node. The HardwareLuxx.de report says that this the same N4P node as "Strix Point," but we've heard several other credible sources claiming that it is the more advanced N4X node, which favors high frequencies. The "Zen 5" CCD has a transistor count of 8.315 billion, which is a significant increase over the 6.5 billion of "Durango," the 8-core CCD based on "Zen 4," powering "Raphael."

What's most interesting is that this staggering 28% increase in transistor counts from the "Zen 4" Durango CCD and "Zen 5" Eldora CCD comes at a die-area decrease of 0.5%. That's right, the "Zen 5" CCD measures 70.6 mm˛, whereas the "Zen 4" CCD is 71 mm˛. The "Zen 4" CCD is built on TSMC N5 (5 nm), which goes to show the tremendous leap in transistor densities achieved from the switch to N4P (or N4X). A maxed out Ryzen 9 9950X processor hence has a total transistor count of 20.03 billion, while the single-CCD Ryzen 7 9700X has a transistor count of 11.715 billion. AMD Ryzen 9000 series goes on sale from July 31, 2024.
