The AMD Ryzen 8000-series ‘Strix Point’ APUs from AMD are anticipated to go on sale in 2019. They will combine Zen 5 CPU cores with RDNA 3.5 integrated graphics. A number of important information about them, like the number of CPU cores, had previously been leaked earlier. Now, a sizable new leak appears to have made the whole GPU core count of what is probably a Strix Point engineering sample public.
AMD Ryzen 8000 Strix Point “Zen 5” CPU leaked Online
The AMD Ryzen 8000 series may include a hybrid configuration of 12 Zen 5 CPU cores and 16 RDNA 3.5 GPU cores, per a HWiNFO screenshot uploaded to Performance Databases. The 45W TDP of the specific chip mentioned in the study hints that it might be intended for laptops rather than desktops. The leaked APU will have 1024 unified shaders or 16 compute units, as can be seen in the screenshot.
The leak also states that the featured processor has an average clock speed of 2.12 GHz and is based on the FP8 architecture. The system also had 32GB of LPDDR5-6400 memory installed. Additionally, it appears in the screenshot that the iGPU would only come with 512GB of GDDR6 memory, however, this is most likely an error brought on by the unsupported APU.
The Strix Point APUs could include up to four Zen 5 and eight Zen 5c cores for a total of 12 cores and 24 threads, according to a significant leak from earlier this month. The monolithic AMD Ryzen 8000 APUs may have a hybrid CPU design with a single CCD and twin CCX, according to the study.
The other CCX may contain 8 Zen 5c CPU cores and 16 threads, while one of the two is said to have 4 Zen 5 CPU cores and 8 threads. In any case, it will be interesting to watch how they will compete against one another given that Intel’s Arrow Lake is also scheduled to debut in 2019 along with the AMD Ryzen 8000-series.
