AMD Ryzen - An Overview Of All We've Learned | New Horizon & Performance Info
417There’s been a lot of news on the CPU formally known as Zen, so this video aims to give folks a crash course of what we’ve learned over the past few months. We’ll be omitting most of the rumors and non official sources of benchmarks simply due to us not being certain when those benchmarks or information were relevant in Zen’s production.
So – let’s talk about the technology behind Ryzen – as an overview of not just the revelations of New Horizon, but also previous details. A few months ago we did release a Zen analysis (which I guess we’ll need to do part 3 of now), but it does serve to delve deeper into the previously released details. We’ll serve you the highlights of that in this specific video, before jumping into New Horizon.
Ryzen has been created from the ground up, with AMD’s goal to beat IPC of their previous processors by 40 percent. Lisa Su did tell us that the performance has exceeded that, but won’t tie herself down to a number, likely because engineers are still tweaking the design.
At its most basic level, Zen clocks up to 3.4 Ghz+, with boost frequencies to be announced at the launch of the processor in Q1 next year. The CPU is built in ‘modules’ known as CPU Complexes (CCX) which share an interconnected 8mb Level 3 Cache across 4 CPU cores. Each core also sports 512KB of level 2 cache too.
