Gururu My next upgrade will likely be in 2027. I'm not even sure what to look for anymore. Don't need more speed in games or apps. Something really cool and innovative though. Reply

usertests We've known this for like a year. Even the 76mm^2 AFAIK. It will be interesting to see how they decide to disable these for 1-2 CCD products. Reply

Gururu @grok says that Zen 6 will lead in efficiency and World of Warcraft and Nova Lake will lead in raw multi-core. What's good about multi-core? Reply

Dementoss So many rumours, so few facts. That's Future Publishing for you… Reply

AMD has officially confirmed that Zen 6 will be a complete redesign from the ground up with a focus on multi-threaded performance. AMD will also be using TSMC's N2 process for Zen 6, which alone will provide a 15% increase in transistor density and up to 15% more performance (at the same power) compared to prior TSMC nodes.

Neilbob Would be great if it could also work with just 640 KB of memory… Reply

Key considerations

  • Investor positioning can change fast
  • Volatility remains possible near catalysts
  • Macro rates and liquidity can dominate flows
