AMD has said that it will launch a new processor based on the Zen 4 architecture in the second half of this year, and previous reports said that AMD will hold an analyst conference in the middle of the year, at this analyst conference, AMD will inform consumers of future development plans, including Zen 5, Zen 6 architecture, and RDNA 3 architecture, and now there are also revelations on the Internet that AMD's two audiophile processor specific parameters, such as core and TDP.
According to the news, AMD's two Zen 4 architecture processors have been exposed, including a 16-core processor and a 12-core processor, and Zen 4 will not use the same hybrid architecture as Intel's 12th generation Core, then it is obvious that it is 16-core 32 threads and 12-core 24 threads, the former has a TDP of 170W, while the latter is 105W. It seems that even if AMD's Zen 4 processor adopts TSMC's 5nm process, its power consumption is still somewhat high.
According to the previous statement, AMD's Zen 4 processor will support the latest DDR5 memory and PCIe 5.0 channels, will also use 5nm process, in addition to single-threaded and multi-threaded performance has also been greatly improved, of course, the socket will also use AM5 socket, pins are also a lot more, it can be said that it is a change from birth to bone. If you want to upgrade your computer, wait for the Second Half of the Zen 4 processor.
