AMD Execution Thread [2024]
- Thread starter del42sa
- Start date
Though seemingly just using standard Cortex X series cores and not a custom architecture. Could be done at a low enough cost, just replace the CPU complex in the 2026 Zen 6 APU from Zen to ARM, though I question the possible volumes and value in doing it regardless.

No new Xbox is planned before 2028 as per the documents disclosed in the Epic lawsuit so this is likely for Surface. But things could have changed.2026 you say (checks Xbox rumour mill)
FUUUUUUU! FUUUUUU! FUUUUUUnny how they keep changing name scheme It's not "changing" if it doesn't exist yet.

Less energy, more performance.
time is ticking, 2027 is near corner and AMD marketing team painting this hilarious cartoonsLisa Su says AMD is on track to a 100x power efficiency improvement by 2027 — CEO outlines AMD’s advances during keynote at imec’s ITF World 2024

In fairness this is a claim about total system efficiency, not just chips. Silicon, packaging, interconnects, networking, software etc etc and with "CEO math" engaged almost anything is plausible
the timing is a little bit strange with only 3 years, but it is not the first time AMD is doing this sort of marketing.

Update: AMD 30x25 Energy Efficiency Goal in High-Performance Computing and AI-Training
As more and more devices become “smart devices” containing embedded processors with internet connectivity and often cameras, the explosion of data creation continues at an exponential pace. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High Performing Computing (HPC) are transforming the computing landscape...
Yes exactly. A large part of the efficiency improvements are directly from newer, more power efficient nodes and packaging improvements. There could be additional accelerators (NPUs, etc) employed and comparisons at different precision levels as well (Though all companies are guilty of this).
Not really, the 2014 goal was 25x by 2020 which they achieved. They then announced 30x by 2025 and gave an update on progress in 2022 and at a recent event in 2024 stating that they feel even 100x is possible by 2027. So it's really just an update/stretch goal on the original 2020 target. Would be quite the achievement but with Zen 7/CDNA 5? on TSMC A16, might well be doable.the timing is a little bit strange with only 3 years, but it is not the first time AMD is doing this sort of marketing.

AMD Ryzen 9000 “Zen 5” Desktop CPU Leaks Out, 5.8 GHz Clock & Up To 19% Faster Than 7950X In Single-Thread Benchmark

The benchmark used is CPU-Z 1t, which isn't really representative of anything. Rumours are that IPC is even higher than that. We'll find out soon anyway, Computex is just a few days away!

Samsung Electronics Co., the world’s largest memory chipmaker, is expected to expand its partnership with US-based fabless semiconductor designer Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) into cutting-edge 3-nanometer chip processing technology. I'm curious to see how this collaboration will develop

That's from years ago, they recently switched around to full on hyper mode after the "Series", series, failed. There's been official communication on the existence of a new "console" already, claims that it will be "the greatest technical leap ever seen" (official and straight from the President of Xbox and reiterated), that "other [game] stores could come to the next Xbox" (Head of Xbox, don't try to decipher their current exec chart it's a nightmare), leaks from reliable sources that there's at least 1 mobile variant and that AMD has already been contracted for the hardware, and now 2026 pinned as the release date, which is when the RDNA5/Zen 6/etc. mobile variants launch.

That friend of mine is telling me that AMD is launching Zen 5 in July, it's going to be about 15% faster than 14900K in gaming, at the same 170w TDP as Zen 4.
It is fake.
Why didn't you mention the update/correction?
Heck, the update may have been there before the "article" was even posted in this thread.
