Massive Leak: AMD RYZEN CPUs

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 12/13/2016 10:08 AM | source: | 47 comment(s)

In what seems to be a massive leak over at Videocardz they posted the contents of a media slide-deck that includes a lot of info, including the new name for ZEN, RYZEN.

AMD has chosen RYZEN, pronounced as "risen" as the product name for their pending enthusiast processors based on the "ZEN" architecture. As you all know the RYZEN part (Summit Ridge) will feature 8 cores, 16 threads, 20 MB of total cache.

The leaked content should not yet have been released as the announcement and embargo's lift tonight. At 10 PM CEST we'll have an article ready for you detailing more of what we have been examining last week in the USA.

Well, its just specs and feautures. Even if there leaked AMD's numbers for performance, i would not believe them until properly tested by reviewers.

The feature to automatically scale up performance with cooling is very cool, IMO.

Reviewers? Hope you don't mean the hundreds of self-proclaimed technology experts that started a YT channel.
