Question Zen 6 Speculation Thread

I can see them to revert to 3-digit numbering. TBF, going past 10000, in other words to 5-digit nomenclature, was sort unprecedented, when it happened with Intel CPUs. I was truly surprised when they announced 10900 lineup. Did not think they were going to do that.

Question Zen 6 Speculation Thread

We will, if it comes with additional 8 cores (16 to 24) under 1000.

I would not be getting 2, not even at MSRP. Its slowly getting into unaffordable territory, even if its used for work - people dont pay me enough sadly.

Honestly, in light of these latest connector shenanigans, even if the cards were available and at MSRP, i am not sure i would not actually hesitate to get one to risk the issues.

Question Zen 6 Speculation Thread

Just found out about this 12C CCD for Zen6. Is it just a rumor, or confirmed to be a thing? If its confirmed, i am definitely skipping Zen5 - there was still small possibility i would consider getting 9950x3D, but i wont if its guaranteed to be replaced by 24C chip in 2 years or so.

Then Nvidia places their 60-70 percent on top of that. I hope by the time the 6000 generation hits, the retailers are going to expect 60-70 percent as well 😛

Yeah, 50 for the RAM itself, 250 to Nvidia for allowing it to be used with their chips 😃

Did nothing almost nothing where? Cause in Octane Render its likely the result why 3090 was almost 2x as fast as 2080Ti.

Just saw the supposed pricing for MSI 5090s here and its downright bizzarre. Like only one model, Ventus, at MSRP, as expected. But the remaining 4 models, all straight up at 3000 EUROs or more (obviously including VAT). So no 200 to 600 EUROs about MSRP options, like in the past, straight up...

In Europe, they are. I can see bunch of 4080S for 1200 tops at local retailer. Which is inline with the 999 + VAT pricetag. 5080s, from the prices that were leaked, are seemingly in the 1500~1800 range. Now those prices might be placeholders, but i would not hold a breath thats the case. Each...

Yeah, and i ducktape it outside of the case :-D But yeah, if the new product is as not good enough as we hoped, not feeling as urged to get it and save the money in the process is always a silver-line :-) I saw the tweet by OTOYs CEO yesterday, hyping 5090 as the first GPU that MIGHT cross 2000...

Equaling the number of FP and INT cores was the meh idea. If they used that die-space to increase the number of FP cores instead, they could have at least better performance in stuff like blender. Which would suit me :p

Discussion Nvidia Blackwell in Q1-2025

Nothing magical about this. We could have done this easily, since the number of cores was already known at that point, and we could presume the clocks are not going to go another gigahertz up, as they went when moving from Ampere to Lovelace. I mean 3090 to 4090 was 60 percent more cores and...
