My point just being that Zen2 to Zen3 is not 25% or more in ST on average, 20% is still mighty impressive especially when you compare to the competition.
Going by this chart: https://www.guru3d.com/review/intel...ons-per-cycle-ipc-clock-for-clock-at-3500-mhz

Ryzen 7600 and 13700K have the same single thread IPC at 3.5 GHz. It's a pretty unrealistic depressing graph that tells us that ST performance has been stagnant since Raptor Lake. Hopefully, Zen 5 will murder everything on this chart.


30% uplift going from 3950X to 5950X in Kraken and then a big jump of 69.75% from 5950X to 7950X3D.

+56.52% from 5800X3D to 7800X3D.

In Jetstream, 3950X to 5950X is a 30% jump in performance.

+69.75% from 5950X to 7950X3D.

+56.52% from 5800X3D to 7800X3D

Considering that every one of us deals with Javascript in web pages on a daily basis, those are some hefty gen on gen gains.

Ah that explains his curt replies. Habit he must've picked up sending messages on the military communication equipment.

Hope someday he feels like giving us a wall of text

It will be very interesting to see how Zen5 perf/W will end up like, considering It uses N4P. That's not much better than what PHX used.
All in all, I consider Strix Point the best future Zen5 product.
Why? Because It has the highest CPU gain compared to predecessor.
Strix Halo will be powerful, but along with Fire Range It won't increase core count.
At least that IGP will be capable, but considering price will be likely high, won't have a good bang for the buck.

So on aggregate, Zen 3 is good 19% IPC uplift from Zen 2, ST is actually 25%. Now according to our resident info merchant, ardoc, in Specint Zen 5 is 32% IPC uplift from Zen 4. Minus the downclock, I'd assume the safe bet is another 25% ST uplift. I feel like a parrot, churning this out every month or so.

Yes, I have high hope of Strix Point as well. STX comes with slightly better process but much bigger die area (from 178mm2 to 225mm2; most of them are from doubling of L3 cache). The delays of launching are mostly due to AMD and Qualcomm are aligned their SoC with Microsoft's WIndows 12. This round AMD should have more stock availability cause OEMs are most likely demand it.....due to lack of MTL's AI requirement, we shall see..

I'm as pumped for Zen 5 as @SiliconFly is for Crater Lake. Except I'm hoping that AMD will not disappoint me as bad.
Is it weird that I'm not? I expect nice core improvements, but with the IO system staying the same, I think most complex, interesting problems will see somewhat muted gains. I expect more from Zen6.

Maybe this is just pre-emptive rationalization because I'm trying not to upgrade every gen anymore and bought into Zen4.

I don't think it's weird at all. Personally I see a clear line of Zen 1 and 3 mostly setting promises which then were mostly fulfilled by package/platform changes in Zen 2 and 4. As a result I'm really looking forward to the Zen 5 core and deep dives of it, but on the balance of the whole package/platform I'm seeing myself waiting for and buying into Zen 6.

225 mm²?

That's HYOOJ.

MLID said Zen 6 is moving to an entirely new chiplet architecture, with chiplets directly stacked on top of the IO Die.

That doesn't sound unrealistic. The current packaging technology AMD uses is not as good as Intel's Foveros in MTL and ARL. It would make sense they'd move to a superior solution.

Define "not as good"

Why are you quoting clueless morons.

Passive 2.5d slabs aren't anything interesting.
Also, I believe Foveros has better latency
2.5D substrates have no impact on that overall.

Strix Point is rumoured to have a setup of:
4 × Zen 5
8 × Zen 5C

What would be the MT performance differencs between such a 4+8 setup vs a pure 8 core Zen 5 setup?

Assuming Zen 5c has the same IPC as Zen 5, the MT uplift would be dependent on how high the Zen 5c cores are clocked. 4 more cores gives you +50% MT if clocks were equal. If Zen 5c is clocked 33% lower than the standard Zen 5 cores, then that's a 16.7% MT uplift.

This is something I've struggled to understand. How can a core with halved L3 have the same IPC? Has L3 suddenly become irrelevant?
