The race for DRAM DDR4 memory frequency, has become a little, well awkward? But hey, if you want to, you can run 5600 MHz DDR4 modules on an APU series that is released later today, Renoir, aka Ryzen ... AMD Ryzen 4000 Renoir APUs support 5600 MHz DDR4 memory
Theres so much hype about the 4700g (honestly, I want one too), but is it true that this will only be sold to OEM's and not available on the retail market? I mean this is practically a no compromises APU version of the 3700x/similar 8 core models, and with higher IF capabilities, this is an exciting product.
Any word on price and what kind of i-gpu are we talking abt here how many shaders ect? In diar need of an upgrade,I know Amds Apus were always faster then intel so I will be watching this one for sure!
That kind of memory kit only makes sense for the igpu performance but is negated by the cost of such a kit so this is very unrealistic, all that aside its nice to see the memory support get better and better on ryzen.
True and apu's will be very exciting when this happens i can't wait to put one under my TV I love my current 2400g but it leaves much to be desired.
not really, the 14nm io die on zen2 can do 5000+, so really a modest bump, though i will mention that even though these memory frequencies are pretty extreme, I suspect this is mainly due to preliminary work for supporting ddr5. since ddr4 and ddr5 are quite similar, and will imo share a memory controller on future chips.
is it really worthless for end users even using the integrated vega graphics? I thought memory being DDR4 was a serious bottleneck, even the GT1030 loses around 50% compared to GDDR5, and considering AMD chips are more memory hungry and how close the GT1030 and old vega8 were in benches...
Yeah very exciting times for APU's. I suspect for APU's we will see DDR5 in 1-2 years then in 2-3 years a move over to HBM say HBM3 on die. AMD is in a good position to have TSMC make cheap HBM as they were part of the original patents.
Would love to see Ipgu benchmarks with ram 4000mhz + tbh. Mentioned before but this chip in a mITX build in living room or such would be perfect.
