A new series of leaks allows to organize information on the long-debated and positioning legend AMD processors, which will be presented next year. To begin with, we recall that in late May, AMD will introduce hybrid processors Godavari, which can be confidently called updated Kaveri. They keep the design concept Socket FM2 +, architecture Steamroller cores and the graphics system generation GCN, will be released on 28 nm technology.
It should be recognized that the fans of great processors performance in 2016 wait for AMD novelties. Processors Summit Ridge will have up to eight cores with x86-compatible architecture and design Zen Socket FM3, which will makes them a more affordable hybrid processors Bristol Ridge. The presence at the Summit Ridge own graphics have not been announced, but the processors will be released on 14 nm technology. Not a bad move - from 32-nm process technology Vishera current directly to the 14-nm technology!
Processors Bristol Ridge will keep up to four cores with the architecture of Zen, get GCN graphics system of the new generation, support HSA 1.0 and AMD TrueAudio, a cryptographic coprocessor and designs Socket FM3. Apparently, processors and Bristol Ridge Summit Ridge can be installed in some motherboards.
Incidentally, the hybrid processors Basilisk will cut the number of cores with the architecture of Zen to two pieces - perhaps half cores in quad-module is simply switched off. But the design of the Socket FT4 says that the processors will come unsoldered Basilisk motherboard compact systems, and all in one pc .
AMD plans to release mobile segment imply in the current year processors Carrizo and Carrizo-L, and the Amur processors with four core ARM Cortex-A57, GCN graphics system and a cryptographic coprocessor. These processors will be released on 20 nm technology, content with scenario of about 2 W power and a design Socket FT4 (BGA). Apparently, based on Amur will be created tablet, and not only transformable device.
Bristol Ridge and Basilisk processors will get dual purpose as will be used not only in desktop systems, but also in mobile phones. Bristol Ridge in the mobile version will keep up to four cores and a TDP level of 15 to 35 watts, but will have the design concept Socket FP4 (BGA). Dual Basilisk will be content TDP from 5 to 15 W and a design Socket FT4 (BGA).
Perhaps the most interesting mobile novelty in 2016 will be 14-nm processors Styx, which will combine two cores with ARM-compatible architecture and K12 GCN graphics system next generation. Like the older relatives, they will support HSA 1.0 and receive crypto coprocessor scenic value of energy does not exceed 2 watts. Design Socket FT4 (BGA) assembly includes a processor directly on the circuit board of the mobile device. Related Products :
