One might be the rumoured 4CU RDNA2 GPU within desktop Zen 4.

One might be the rumoured 4CU RDNA2 GPU within desktop Zen 4.

Based on the code names and lines added I'd say this could be a desktop or laptop Zen 4 APU.

Anyone wanna play guess the code name?

My guess is "Gamboge Catfish"

GC = Graphics Core (I prefer GFX over GC though).

Sorry, but Gamboge is not a valid X11 colour...

...unless it is one of the variants of Goldenrod ?

That said, I learned a new word today - thanks !!

marek So did AMD change its naming scheme again? Not that I'm complaining, gfx1036 is a lot better than random color+fish.

Would have loved a "red herring" chip tho.

I forgot about the X11 part. Not like I'm the one here who's paid to know that information.

I almost went with Golden Poppy Catfish because I have an orange and white cat named Poppy.
Yeah, I know, not an X11 color either.



She's 8 months old in that picture.

Well that's no fun. Y'all could at least let us play "guess the acronym"

Maybe, but I think it's more likely that gfx1036 just placeholder for Da Vinci Sea Bass.
