Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000)

[DisEnchantment]

Speculate at will

 

[Det0x]

That's indeed what it draws.
Seems thermally-limited which is kinda funny.

Which could very well mean "170w TDP" could mean a 200w PPT limit this time around

And who's to say AMD didnt change their "TDP formula" for this release ?
"170w TDP" could very well mean a 200w PPT limit this time around

Remember TDP for cpus is a made up number

AMD Ryzen TDP Explained: Deep-Dive on TDP Definitions & What Cooler Manufacturers Think | GamersNexus

stub Thermal Design Power, or TDP, is a term used by AMD and Intel to refer in an extremely broad sense to the rate at which a CPU cooler must dissipate heat from the chip to allow it to perform as advertised. Sort of. Depending on the specific formula and product, this number often ends up a...

Yeah, also the leaked numbers from the AMD event were 42k stock and 44k PBO. No way this ES does 46k. Something is off.

That’s like 10% higher than the results we’ll be seeing on the 31st.

I’m guessing the extreme cooling is enabling it to run 2 speed bins higher than it would in a typical system.

Not that it matters much, but in the ES 200w PPT screenshot you can see the cpu running ~5.1ghz @ ~1.080v
*edit*
Didnt hassan post on X about a 9950X using 19x watt a while ?
Think i saw it earlier today but cant find now

I was talking about some people who argue and post this screenshot as proof for "who knows what" or simply to mislead "normies" and then the "normies" or people who dont have time to follow this take this 41.9k pts number as real "stock" and ITS clearly not.
Even you quoted this "42k" score
And the guy from post above me also quoted this score.

From @Asus marketing material

890M with its four extra CU cores should beat that 3050 then. At 40W of course. That's really quite impressive.

190-ish.
The PPT is 230W but current/thermal limits are hit first.
Very mobile-driven approach but makes sense.

Yeah.
Unlike RMB/PHX (whoever said that meme should stop), STX1 is actually bandwidth-limited.
This thing was intended to have SLC, after all.

water temperature below 10c for sure.

The 230W, 253W, and Unlimited PPT runs are all effectively the same (peak PPT observed never exceeds 230W). The scores decrease slightly as I continue to increase from 230W to unlimited. This is because my small room is heating up from testing and the air cooler definitely hits the 95C throttle point during the runs at 230W and above.

40W

60W

80W

100W

Strange conclusion..

This is my noctua air cooled 7950x i have in my living room.
L3 idle temp is pretty much the room temperature even with silent air cooler


And while i'm at it, a r23 MT run

Inb4 new AMD marketing metric vs. Intel: how many seconds of benchmarking the CPU can run before it goes kaput.

How about virtually infinite ! My 7950x's run 100% load 24/7 and have done so since I got them the day Zen 4 was available for purchase. at stock on air.

What kind of air cooler do you run? I was just told by a few geniuses that you cant use an air cooler on a 7950X at full 230W PPT.

What model of coolers do you run?

 

[tsamolotoff]

My limits (240W/180A/180A) and maximum score (and clocks):


60W:


80W:


100W:

 

[tsamolotoff]

120W:


160W:


Also, if someone knows how to fix this scaling issue with fonts and buttons in CB23/CB24, I'd be very glad to know how to do it (i have to basically tab between button to launch benchmark, mouse doesn't work in CB window for some reason)

PS: Ah yes, forgot to say that I couldn't do 40W PPT, for some reason my system refuses to boot with 40W / 40A /40A limits, it just hangs up with 00 postcode after initialization (very weird)

Core temperature can’t lower than ambient temperature. All ways higher. You can see at 40w load core temperature still 21c, but yours is 38c.

And what is your room temperature?

I imagine it would look something like this...

Now we need a 5950X in on this action

No offense to 5950X owners but that's so ancient now

Hey @igor_kavinski , have you managed to get some R24 (ST and MT) numbers from the 9950X ES user? Sorry if I missed it in this thread.

Not yet. Soon!

Just warming up my 14900K guys, she'll be ready soon. Benchmarks incoming after I get some insurance quotes.

Found a old highly-tuned 5950x screenshot in my benchmark folder 🤣

That might be the highest AM4 R23 score Ive ever seen, lol.
