According to unofficial information, in the maximum configuration, AMD processors cores (architecture) Zen will carry up to 32 processing cores. Now the data can be considered officially confirmed. Moreover, in the maximum configuration Zen cores processors will be collected from two identical crystals in a multichip module. This was used in the past in AMD Opteron processors produced consisting of two crystals connected by a bus Hyper-Transport.
Consequently, the 32-core AMD Zen will consist of two 16-core crystal. Each chip will have an integrated memory controller DDR4, for a total of eight-channel memory controller . In the summer, we recall, Fudzilla site published a slide on which AMD crystals in the package are connected to four lines or GMI Global Memory Interconnect (common interface name may be Coherent Fabric or Coherent data fabric). The rate of exchange on the four lines up to 100 GB / s. This interface and layout may also have hybrid generation AMD Zen processors with integrated graphics and Greenland HBM memory.
It can be expected that Zen with integrated graphics will be up to 16-core, 32-core crystal is not provided. Three crystal in the same package - is too expensive and unreliable. Related Products :
