AMD FX processors with Zen architecture, relating to the generation of Summit Ridge, will be located just above the existing processor Vishera. Type Socket AM4 will be shared by processors Summit Ridge and hybrid solutions Bristol Ridge, but only in the desktop segment. Mobile version of Bristol Ridge AMD has in store design concept Socket FP4. If we consider that processors Bristol Ridge will use a familiar to us Carrizo architecture Excavator, then such continuity is natural. There remain opportunities for the appearance of processors with Excavator architecture Socket FM2 +. By the way, dual-core processors architecture Stoney Ridge Excavator Socket AM4 is publicly documented AMD is also not mentioned.
Interesting separation provided by the type of memory supported. Judging by the already stated above slide, Summit Ridge processor architecture Zen will only support DDR4, Bristol Ridge and processors in the same Socket AM4 will offer support for DDR3 and DDR4. Obviously, before the manufacturers of motherboards with socket Socket AM4 problem of selecting the type of supported memory will be decided in favor of DDR4, but in the mobile segment DDR3 will be used more often. Processors Summit Ridge promise to increase the number of cores and implement multithreading.
Along the way, AMD plans for 2016 listed the support of memory type HBM second generation. Most likely, this memory just will not be present at more affordable graphics cards,.
In the server segment AMD promises not only to present processors with Zen Architecture , but also to introduce advanced technologies working with RAM. Related Products :
