According to the latest leaks, new chips will receive 50% more core (CCD) per chiplet compared to Zen 5, as well as the increasing volume of 3D V cache. Main improvements:
-
More cores: Zen 6 will use 12 nuclei per CCD, which is 50% higher than the 8 cores available in Zen 5. This means that flagship processors such as Ryzen 9 9950x can take two CCDs and 24 cores and 48 streams.
-
Increased cache L3: Each CCD Zen 6 will receive L3 cache up to 48 MB, which is 50% more than Ryzen 9 9950x (32 MB in CCD). With 3D V-Cache, the total cache can reach 144 MB, which will make these processors the most powerful for games.
-
Server versions: For EPYC server processors, it is expected to use more compact Zen 6C seeds and allow you to place it up to a CCD up to 32 cores. This will provide core density and data yield density.
With these features, AMD plans to strengthen its positions in the segment of high -performance workstations and game PCs, and to maintain productivity leadership in the core and efficiency of the use of cache.
