Third generation adopted Zen 2 Ryzen announcement, Intel top model outperformed in performance, watching performance overwhelming



At the CES 2019 held in Las Vegas, USA, AMD 's Lisa Su was the keynote speaker. Among them, the 3rd generation Ryzen CPU adopting the "Zen 2" microarchitecture was announced and overwhelmed Intel's high-end CPU "Core i9-9900K" on the same performance on the same 8 cores / 16 threads with watt performance I showed the performance to do.

Sue CEO to take out actual CPU



In the 3rd generation Ryzen, an I / O die manufactured by a 14 nm process corresponding to a conventional north bridge and a CPU die which realizes 8 cores / 16 threads manufactured in a 7 nm process are respectively arranged. The chiplet configuration already realized with EPYC " Rome " for servers will be adopted also in the 3rd generation Ryzen series. PCI Express Gen.4 is supported by the I / O die.



Sue declared that it was an ES item under test, and made a benchmark comparison demonstration with the top models Core i9-9900K of rival Intel and Cinebench R15. As a result, the third generation Ryzen has a score of "2057", which exceeds "2040" of Core i9-9900K. Considering that it is the same 8 cores / 16 threads, the 3 rd generation Ryzen finally seems likely to capture the Intel Core series finally even with single core performance.



In addition, the maximum power consumption during the benchmark was 133.4 W, which was much lower than the rival's 179.9 W, and showed watt performance overwhelming rivals. Compared with ES products, the third-generation Ryzen is expected to exceed Intel 's current CPU in terms of performance, considering that there is a high possibility that optimization will progress further and performance will be improved at the time of product release.



The third generation Ryzen sample presented by Sue CEO said that "there is space to place another tiplet in the lower right" has received a lot of attention.


By placing the CPU die here, the 3rd generation Ryzen can be 16 cores / 32 threads, and if you place the GPU die you can also create 8 core / 16 thread APUs, so dreams will expand dramatically I will.



In response to the question from the reporter "A model exceeding 8 cores?", Sue CEO says, "Packages have room for expansion, you might want more packages," Answer, we did not deny the possibility of the third generation Ryzen of 16 cores / 32 threads.


If Intel releases a CPU that exceeds the 3rd generation "Ryzen 7" series of 8 cores / 16 threads, 2 stages of entering with a third generation "Ryzen 9 (tentative name)" of 16 cores / 32 threads ... It may be a stance.

The 3rd generation Ryzen is going to be released in mid-2019.
