Good to see as the competition benefits everyone. I also like the idea of on-board graphics too rather than have special 'g' chips for the purpose. My server boxes for example run headless and normally don't need a monitor, but there are times when you need one to update bios settings and such. That's where the GPU on the CPU come in handy.
That said, I don't see me jumping on the AM5 system right away if not for a long time -- unless current motherboard/cpu breaks of course. I have so much performance just 'sitting there' with my Ryzen 5000 series boxes (5900X and 5600X), I just don't see any need for upgrading. I can't help wonder if there are others out there like me that will just stick with the AM4 platform for the foreseeable future. All my systems run Linux of course. VMs run very well... Just can't see/justify upgrading.

That said, I've not seen a major uplift in speed for the code I actually care about on the 6300 Xeons vs. the 6200 Xeons... and AMD will continue to be popular in the datacentre if their core count keeps going up. We'll see what Sapphire Rapids brings to the table.

Originally posted by Anux View PostI'm confident if they claim 15 % more single thread performance it will be right there, maybe 1 or 2 % off for independent reviews. Since the start of Zen AMD has been pretty honest with their performance claims. If Intel made that claim I would instantly bet its around 7 to 5 % in reality. Intels "benchmarks" must be a meme by this point.
But yeah, only time will tell.

Hmm, lots of uncertainty surrounding these 7000series CPU's. It wouldn't be so bad if DDR5 wasn't TWICE the price of DDR4 here.. (Australia)

The fine print on the slides could lead you to believe that they are deliberately underestimating the IPC/performance of Zen 4. Doesn't seem like a good strategy to me, but we'll find out the truth eventually the right way: by reading third-party reviews instead of leaks and marketing claims.
As to why they might be downplaying performance? They could be trying to dampen expectations give some of the wild rumors claiming 40% IPC increases both with and without 3D v-cache included and significant clock speed increases on top of the IPC gains. If these rumors went unchecked, then whatever AMD released would have been met with disappointment (even if they blew Intel out of the water across the board). From AMD's perspective, it's always better to under-promise on early performance previews and over-deliver on performance at release. They did the exact same thing with the original Zen chip.
I also do not think they are deliberately underestimating performance. I think they are just being very conservative in their estimates and careful with their wording.
Originally posted by jaxa View PostNot at launch. You probably have to wait until 2023 to see a 3D cache model. Hopefully they will put it on at least the 16-core as well as the 8-core this time.
Originally posted by jaxa View PostThat sounds overly optimistic for Raptor Lake's single-threaded gains. It will probably have a similar bump to this (IPC + clocks = 10-15%), and it will be adding another 8 small cores, but only in the Core i9. But as it stands, that's more than enough to defeat Zen 4. We'll see if that changes in a few months.

Originally posted by Drago View PostI am wondering if there is any plans for a beefier APUs, where single compute chiplet is replaced with GPU chiplet?
Limiting CPU to 8C/16T, but still enough.
Intel on the other hand does seem to be going that route, for example by putting a Battlemage graphics tile into Meteor Lake. Presumably this tile would be shared with discrete GPUs that have 1-4 of them.
Originally posted by Anux View PostHm, 15% single core of which 12% is accountable to the frequency jump (4,9 to 5,5 GHz) leaving 3% per clock improvments. That is either played low or really bad, it would make zen 4 lose to zen 3D in some cases. Having 170W TDP limit also isn't flying with me.
Didn't they do anything besides porting zen 3 to 5nm and doubling the L2?
AMD Ryzen 7000 Desktop CPUs come with greater than 15% performance over Ryzen 5000 but is there something else that AMD is hiding?

Originally posted by WannaBeOCer View PostLooks like the Zen architecture is finally hitting its limitations. Intel’s Raptor Lake is going to be released with another 15% single threaded IPC increase over Alder Lake along with a 40% increase in multi-core performance. It’s insane how Intel was on 14nm for 6 years and AMD was only able to beat them for one generation due to TSMC’s 7nm process.
