AMD is still trying to think of new things, and right now its attention is on the design of its next chip, the Zen 5. A serious dataminer named momomo_us leaked information that helps us guess what the next generation of Ryzen “Granite Ridge” desktop CPUs will be like. Let’s talk about what we understand:
This is the group that plays “Granite Ridge.”
One with eight cores.
One with six centers.
What TDP Is and How It Work?
The six-core “Granite Ridge” CPU should have a TDP of 105W.
The 170W TDP of the 8-core “Granite Ridge” CPU is better, though.
How Silicon Stepping Is Different
For the Granite Ridge line, AMD seems to be trying two different kinds of silicon steps:
A0 B0 Raphael and I/O Died Together (Zen 4)
They will both use the same I/O die, which is part of the Raphael system (which is based on Zen 4). This means that the RDNA 2 graphics built in will not be as strong as those in APUs with Zen 5, which will have better RDNA 3 and 3.5 (now called RDNA 3+) graphics.
It works with AM5 plugs.
The AM5 port will work with the Granite Ridge CPUs that are built on Zen 5. You’re in luck if you already have an AM5 chip. Zen 5 will be a big step up when it comes out later this year.
What’s Going to Happen?
A new 700-series processor and a new family of hardware are said to be in the works at AMD. People think that these boards will work with faster DDR5 memory, updates for Wi-Fi 7, and other things.
Stay tuned for more information about AMD’s Zen 5 design! 🌟🏥
