Aren't there some prominent rumours that Strix Halo has atleast one die based on N3E?
Do we have numbers on thermal/area improvements from N5 to N4P?I don't think they're all that questionable (aside from perhaps the CCX layout but I've had issues with heterogeneous multicore for a while.) Zen5 is a performance and efficiency improvement over Zen4 with no major shrink. It's fine. It's a better uarch than Zen4. Folks just got a little over-enthusiastic, egged on by some of the usual suspects, in the run-up to release.
Not the CCD.Aren't there some prominent rumours that Strix Halo has atleast one die based on N3E?
IOD is said to be N3E, yes.
Compute Die should be N4P still.
This seems like a bit of an overreaction. Even though absolute performance seems a bit disappointing, overall energy efficiency is up quite a lot, as is gaming performance (after the bios update). In a device with a better cooling solution than whatever garbage Asus cobbled together into the Zenbook S16, it's an excellent chip.review is out 😭😭😭😭
So this means H370x is more than double the performance of the 155H at 15W, probably almost double the 185H too. Good luck to to Lunar Lake to catch up with advertised 50% improvement.
Really funny people here are acting like these aren't the best mobile CPUs outside of Apple.
Oh please, you’re telling me that Paul alcorn can do proper SPEC tests. The mainstream tech/media cannot do it and nor should they.That's a bit much. SPEC takes maybe two hours to set up, including installing and writing up a config. It's not some deep and forbidden art.
Is it possible to have 8533 MT/s for memory modules not inside the CPU package?AMD should pay someone for better memory controllers. Strix is way behind MediaTek, Intel, Qualcomm SOCs. 1000MT/s less can't be helpful for that GPU.
Isn't that what Qualcomm has? well 8448MT/s.Is it possible to have 8533 MT/s for memory modules not inside the CPU package?
Someone just needs to use the ProArt 16. As of now that’s most capable of boosting.Oh please, you’re telling me that Paul alcorn can do proper SPEC tests. The mainstream tech/media cannot do it and nor should they.
It’s easy for you but proper testing takes. time. Even Aandtech faltered and didn’t catch the HX 370 not boosting to the full clock and their tests were automated and they run it multiple times. David I believe is the only one with right SPEC results for mobile Zen.
The Zephyrus G16 should be pretty good as well. It's shipping from Asus webstore now, hopefully reviews soon.Someone just needs to use the ProArt 16. As of now that’s most capable of boosting.
Interesting post by David Huang;
"The consequence of Zen 5's initial release to most media outlets for testing on ultra-thin notebooks is that you can't even find a few Cinebench tests where a single core ran at full frequency without being throttled..."
No wonder AT couldn't measure any ST IPC increase in Specint while David measured around 10% jump vs Zen 4 mobile part.

"I suggest you wait until I finish running SPEC and GB under Linux in a few days before drawing any conclusions.In addition, if you have read my previous analysis of performance bottlenecks, you will know that even for a 6-wide 4ALU x86 processor, the performance bottleneck is mostly not in the decoding width or the number of ALUs."
Yes, you are right. Snapdragon would be very comparable to Strix Point.Isn't that what Qualcomm has? well 8448MT/s.
Apple's M1 from 2020 says Hi.Welcome to the future. This thing is like the final boss. "Build me a chip with _everything_ on it. Two different cores, NPU, graphics, plus all the other SoC things."
Edit: I suppose it lacks a FPGA.
