The next-generation desktop CPU processors of AMD and Intel have been postponed to 2027, but the wait will be worth it. Both parties will usher in a leap, and memory prices should also come down by then. AMD here is the Zen6 architecture, codenamed "Olympic Ridge"(Olympic Ridge), it will be named Ryzen 10000 series by convention (but it feels like it will be renamed), and will continue to use the AM5 interface and be compatible with 600/800 series motherboards.
According to the latest revelations,Zen6 will be configured with seven different core numbers, including 6 cores, 8 cores, 10 cores, and 12 cores for a single CCD.
Dual CCDs include 16 cores (8+8), 20 cores (10+10), and 24 cores (12+12).
Yes,The number of cores in a single CCD will increase from 8 cores to 12 cores for the first time, and the L3 cache capacity will also increase from 32MB to 48MB.
Therefore, the maximum number of cores in a single processor has increased from 16 cores to 24 cores for the first time, and the L3 cache capacity has increased from 64MB to 96MB.
Of course, X3D will continue to exist. Even if the scale remains unchanged, if dual CCDs are dual stacked, even if the L2 cache remains unchanged at 1MB per core,The total cache capacity will also be up to 248MB!
Intel will first launch Arrow Lake Refresh in the near future, which is a simple upgrade. The new Nova Lake will have to wait until early next year, and will also have a new interface LGA1954, paired with a new motherboard 900 series.
Nova Lake is said to have up to 52 cores (16+32+4) and even a dual bLLC large cache version with a maximum cache of 288MB, surpassing AMD for the first time.
In fact, this is already a fever-level product like the Ripper, and should be included in the Core Ultra X series.
