16-core AMD ZEN3 Vermeer Sighted Running 4.8 GHz on Boost Frequency
It's a lot of AMD news lately, today we add a sighting of AMD Vermeer. Vermeer is based on 7nm production at TSMC, called ZEN3.
Industry sources have shared data about the clock speeds of a rumoured Ryzen 9 4950X Vermeer. The processor would get 16 cores and thus 32 threads set up in SMT. The rumour is that this processor will feature a boost frequency of that reaches 4.8 GHz. The claim is based on an engineering sample so final frequencies are topic of discussion. The 16-core product would run (at this time) a base frequency of 3.5 GHz. Which is not and for so many processor cores.
How did this info resolve itself? Well, the leaked OPN code is "100-000000059-52_ 48/35 _ Y" and that would be the current Boost and base frequency. Other OPN codes already have been spotted a well, including "100-000000059-14_46/37_Y" and "100-000000059-15_46/37_N".
Exciting times, if the boost frequency remains that way and we see another IPC increase, then AMD might have gold in their hands. But until actually announced and released, everything remains speculation, of course.

So based on this sentence we should not talk about Zen3 at all

Not surprised,we saw what xt line can do and it's barely any higher than early 7nm
it's much,much more important for them to get the latency down than frequencies up.

It will be much more interesting to see IF speed increases, and perhaps full bandwidth both ways (which for Zen2 it is not the case, Write is slower than Read, which makes core jumping very inefficient)

Let's not forget that there is a rumour about naming them 5xxx instead of 4xxx, shall we?
Other than that 4.8GHz boost with that roughly 15% IPC increase could do more harm to Intel than ever.
I cannot wait to see these Zen3 CPUs.
