AMD AM5 Ryzen CPU architectures getting support for HWiNFO

HWiNFO will soon include support for AMD’s next-generation AM5 Ryzen CPU architectures, as well as a new RAMP technology. While the most recent version of HWiNFO includes preliminary support for Intel’s next-generation Granite Rapids Xeon processors, the future version will be primarily focused on AMD platforms.

It will not only acquire support for AMD’s AM5 Ryzen platforms, but it will also get preliminary support for AMD RAMP. While we’ve heard a lot about AMD’s AM5 CPU platform and the Ryzen CPUs that go with it, this is the first time we’ve heard about RAMP. We don’t know if it’s tied to the AM5 platform, but it could be a new boosting technique based on the name, though we can’t say for sure.

Following are the list of changes coming to HWiNFO soon:

  • HWiNFO64 ported to UNICODE.
  • Enhanced Intel XMP 3.0 Revision 1.2 support.
  • Enhanced sensor monitoring on some ASRock B660 and H610 series.
  • Added preliminary support of AMD RAMP.
  • Enhanced support of future AMD AM5 platforms.

Here’s Everything We Know About AMD’s Raphael Ryzen ‘Zen 4’ Desktop CPUs

Raphael will be the codename for the next-generation Zen 4 based Ryzen Desktop CPUs, which will replace the Vermeer dubbed Zen 3 based Ryzen 5000 Desktop CPUs. Raphael CPUs will be based on the 5nm Zen 4 core architecture and will feature 6nm I/O dies in a chiplet design, according to the information we currently have.

AMD has hinted that the core counts of its next-generation standard desktop CPUs would be increased, so we may expect a small increase from the present maximum of 16 cores and 32 threads.

The Zen 4 design is expected to give up to a 25% increase in IPC over the Zen 3 architecture and clock speeds of roughly 5 GHz. Stack chiplets will be present in AMD’s future Ryzen 3D V-Cache processors based on the Zen 3 architecture, and that design is expected to be carried over to AMD’s Zen 4 line of chips as well.

AMD Ryzen  ‘Zen 4’ Desktop CPU Expected Features:

  • Brand New Zen 4 CPU Cores (IPC / Architectural Improvements)
  • Brand New TSMC 5nm process node with 6nm IOD
  • Support on AM5 Platform With LGA1718 Socket
  • Dual-Channel DDR5 Memory Support
  • 28 PCIe Lanes (CPU Exclusive)
  • 105-120W TDPs (Upper Bound Range ~170W)

In terms of the platform, AM5 motherboards will use the LGA1718 socket, which is expected to survive a long time. DDR5-5200 memory, 28 PCIe lanes, extra NVMe 4.0 and USB 3.2 I/O, and native USB 4.0 capability may be included in the platform. The X670 flagship and the B650 mainstream will be the first two 600-series chipsets for AM5. The X670 chipset motherboards are likely to support both PCIe Gen 5 and DDR5 memory, although ITX boards are expected to only use B650 chipsets due to the increased size.

The Raphael Ryzen Desktop CPUs are also likely to include RDNA 2 onboard graphics, implying that, like Intel’s mainstream desktop range, AMD’s mainstream desktop lineup will offer GPU graphics. The number of GPU cores on the upcoming chips is expected to range between 2-4, according to speculations (128-256 cores). This will be less than the RDNA 2 CU count found on AMD’s next Ryzen 6000 APUs ‘Rembrandt,’ but it will be enough to keep Intel’s Iris Xe iGPUs at bay.

The Raphael Ryzen CPUs based on Zen 4 isn’t anticipated until late 2022, so there’s still plenty of time. The processors will compete with Intel’s Raptor Lake 13th Generation Desktop CPUs.
