Colleagues from the PCWorld site had the opportunity not only to communicate with AMD representatives at yesterday's event, but also to look into the demo system, which showed the possibility of eight-core processor Summit Ridge in action.
As colleagues note Summit Ridge cooled branded cooler AMD Wraith. This not only confirms its ability to cope with heat of eight-core processor clocked at 3.0 GHz, but also speaks of compatibility with the fixings on motherboards with socket Socket AM4. As mentioned last, Summit Ridge serial processors can operate at higher frequencies.
Memory modules such as DDR4, worked next to Zen processor . Apparently, these processors will use a dual-channel memory access organization. Their server relatives, use four-channel preference.
In modern terminology, processors Summit Ridge - this "system on a chip", SoC. The idea is that the whole chipset should be integrated into the CPU. However, colleagues say that spotted at the engineering sample of a motherboard separate chip that is responsible for working with hard drives. In any case, the CPU is not the only chip located on the motherboard. Related Products :
