A 9070XT is a large die with 640 GB/s of membw available to it, combined with 64MB of IC. You're not getting anywhere close to it with an APU.

Probably not on TSMC N3, but on N2 I could see this happening. Especially as N2 is finally bringing some promising advances on memory cell area (i.e. higher cache density).

Besides if there's a PS6 coming out, it's safe to assume it'll have a more powerful iGPU than the 9070XT.

There was a bit of noise about a Rembrandt based desktop APU at one point. With it still living in OEM space still, there's always a chance.

Maybe 9950X3D guaranteed 6 GHz edition :p

They have seen that the market is mad for their CPUs so they are like, hey, let's raise the bar why don't we?

A new stepping has seemingly been confirmed, so that isn't out of the realm of possibility. While we haven't had anything awesome recently, new steppings in the distant past have brought some pretty nice performance and/or overclocking improvements.

AMD Granite Ridge CPU New Stepping: B40F41C1?

Or more precisely, a new CPU ID which is the same as present Granite Ridge's CPU ID but incremented at the least significant digit, a.k.a. the "stepping" part of the CPU ID. How about a Granite Ridge with an improved cIOD? Improved WRT GMI and IMC? (E.g.: GMI-wide support, CUDIMM support; the former making the latter useful.)


Or in the worst case, with nothing but an NPU added, for MS sticker eligibility.

Not really, that in itself would need designing a new die, which if you know AMD's CPU history of last 15 years, they prefer to really only do as a last resort.

They'd do it if paid for, obviously. But (continuing to state the obvious) putting Strix Point/ Krackan/ the rumored Gorgon Point into AM5 would be the much shorter = much cheaper for AMD's customers but not equivalent path to delivering an NPU to the AM5 platform. The 'model' bits of the new CPUID are Granite Ridge's though, so let's see what's been cooking for GNR.

It already does, you're not decode-limited due to opcache anyway.
Click to expand...
Do you have a benchmark or just "trust me bro"?. And "95% is not using opcach" is hardly an answer. I understand many workloads with small loop sizes but many != All. Saying "dual decode for single thrard is bad cause trust me bro" is inane. Just say "I have nothing to say about it" and be done with it. Or do you have data to prove it?

This is why huge APUs are the future, imo. Perf on battery is appalling on seperate dGPU setups. 1hr to render a Premiere project while unplugged, and close to 5 minutes plugged in on the Razer. Could this be a razor issue? maybe

Discussion - 2025 angry motherboard rant (not mine!)

https://www.overclock.net/posts/29476390/ I found it kinda amusing but he's right about many things. What pisses you off about current motherboards? I'm not really in a pissy mood right now but I would really like a motherboard that would accept both Intel and AMD CPUs and let us run both...

9600 MT/s support for Ryzen so most definitely CUDIMM support is incoming!
