AMD Ryzen 3 7420U Leak: RDNA2 Graphics in an Entry Level APU

Leo Wong De Quan — Sat, 04 Jun 2022 02:15:11 +0000

At Computex Taipei 2022, AMD had revealed that the company will be launching its entry-level Ryzen and Athlon 7000 series mobile processors, codenamed “Mendocino”, that are aimed towards the Chromebooks and affordable Windows devices crowd.

And according to several reports online (via ITHome and wccftech), we have gathered several leaks and rumours that we know about AMD’s “Mendocino” processors so far.

AMD’s upcoming “Mendocino” 7000 series mobile entry-level APU family will be consisting of 3 members – the AMD Ryzen 3 7420U, AMD Athlon Gold 7220U and the AMD Athlon Silver 7020U.

Not much is known about the Athlon 7000 series mobile APUs, but recently ITHome reported that the news organisation had gathered info that the highest-end among the “Mendocino” processors – the Ryzen 3 7420U, will be sporting a quad-core CPU setup with 8 threads. All 4 CPU cores will be built on AMD’s older Zen 2 architecture, which turns 3 years old in 2022.

GPU-wise, The integrated graphics of the Ryzen 3 7420U APU will be featuring 1 WGP (2 CUs) of RDNA2 Graphics.

However, compared to its predecessor – the Ryzen 3 5400U, the upcoming Ryzen 3 7420U APU seems rather underwhelming. For comparison, the Ryzen 3 5400U also has a 4 core 8 thread CPU, but the cores are built on newer Zen 3 architecture. Meanwhile, the GPU on the Ryzen 5400U is a 6 CUs Vega Integrated Graphics.

As revealed earlier in leaks online, the AMD “Mendocino” APUs will be supporting dual-channel x32 LPDDR5 RAM, which can go up to 32GB, and the APUs will support VP9 and AV1 video encoding as well.

In Computex, AMD announced that “Mendocino” APUs will be launched in Q4 2022 and arrive in markets by the end of the year. The company expects “Mendocino” APUs to be available in mainstream notebooks priced from US$ 399 to US$699.

In addition to the improved APU design, “Mendocino” is also manufactured on TSMC’s 6nm process, which translates to better power efficiency. AMD had announced that it believes that with Mendocino, Windows laptops can deliver more than 10 hours of battery life. On stage at Computex 2022, AMD revealed that Lenovo’s upcoming 2022 IdeaPad 1 series of entry-level laptops will be among the first to feature the APU.

AMD Unveils Upcoming Ryzen 7000 Series and AM5 Motherboards

Leo Wong De Quan — Mon, 23 May 2022 17:39:41 +0000

Computex Taipei 2022 has officially kicked off today, from May 23rd to May 27th at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center in Taiwan. And the first official event of the week-long programme is headed by semiconductor giant, AMD with its 2022 AMD Keynote Conference for the audience.

At the Computex 2022 Keynote event today, AMD had finally pulled the sheets of its latest breakthrough products to the technology industry – its Ryzen 7000 desktop series processors and the company’s long-awaited AM5 socket motherboards.

Ryzen 7000 Desktop Processors

The Ryzen 7000 Series Desktop Processors are the successors to last year’s Ryzen 5000 series desktop processors. They are built on AMD’s latest Zen 4 architecture fabbed on TSMC’s industry-leading advanced 5nm node manufacturing process. For context, TSMC 5nm was found earliest on ARM-based devices like Apple’s iPhone 12 series, but for x86-based systems, AMD is the world’s first chip supplier to bring TSMC 5nm technology to the desktop PC scene.

Source: AMD

As for the specifics, the AMD Ryzen 7000 series processors based on Zen 4 architecture are built just like Zen 3, in a chiplet-based design, but this time with the two Core Complex Dies manufactured on TSMC’s 5nm node.

In addition, AMD is also introducing a new 6 nm I/O die (IOD) for Ryzen 7000 series desktop processors. Unlike the 14 nm Global Foundries IOD used in previous Zen 3 designs, AMD has now gone to TSMC for its 6nm manufacturing process for its IOD in Ryzen 7000 series desktop processors.

With the manufacturing partner change, AMD is also incorporating an integrated GPU, to what is supposed to be just the Ryzen 7000 series desktop CPUs. And the GPU is not the Vega-based GPUs you would find in entry-level AMD models, this GPU will be built on AMD‘s RDNA2 architecture, the same architecture for the company’s dedicated graphic cards.

Thus, all of AMD‘s Ryzen 7000 series CPUs will technically be APUs as well, as graphics are now woven into the CPU’s construction. As Anandtech reports, “What this means for the future of AMD‘s monolithic desktop APUs is uncertain, but at a minimum, it means that all (or virtually all) of AMD‘s CPUs will be suitable for use in systems without discrete graphics, which although not a huge deal for consumer systems, is very much a big deal for corporate/commercial systems”.

AMD also showed off an unannounced 16-core Ryzen 7000 CPU at the keynote today running on the PC game Ghostwire: Tokyo, and the performance numbers have been shocking as the event showed off the unannounced Ryzen 7000 CPU running at over 5.5GHz, which is higher than not only AMD’s own top-end Ryzen 5000 processors from last year but also higher than Intel’s current 12th Gen Core i9 Processors.

Last, AMD disclosed that Zen 4 will come with 1MB of L2 cache per CPU core, which is twice the amount of L2 cache as found on Zen 3 (and Zen 2) CPU cores, and together with the company’s claims of 15% IPC uplift in single-core performance, the Ryzen 7000 series will be leading the competition.

No specific models of Ryzen 3, 5 or 7 models of Ryzen 7000 series desktop series processors were announced in today’s event, but AMD CEO, Dr Lisa Su confirms that the company will be holding a launch event for its Ryzen 7000 series desktop processors coming this fall in the upcoming months.

AM5 Socket Motherboards

Coming to AM5 Socket Motherboards, the new AM5 motherboards have an LGA-type socket with 1718 pins, and introduces DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 support, as well as higher processor TDPs to the Ryzen 7000 family. The Ryzen 7000 desktop series processors will be the company’s first-ever Ryzen processors to run on AM5, which also means that AMD is officially retiring its 5-year-old AM4 motherboard technology.

AMD have revealed that with the collaboration with its motherboard partners, the company is ready to provide AM5 motherboards to the general public which include the ASRock X670E Taichi, the ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Extreme, the Biostar X670E Valkyrie, the GIGABYTE X670 Aorus Xtreme, and the MSI MEG X670E Ace motherboards.

AM5 Partner Motherboards

The AM5 motherboards are also coming this fall together with AMD’s Ryzen 7000 series desktop processors.

AMD Ryzen 7000 Series CPU Spotted Running Up to 1.532V on MSI’s Upcoming Motherboard, Here’s Why That’s Concerning

Leo Wong De Quan — Sun, 17 Apr 2022 04:30:13 +0000

AMD’s upcoming release of its Ryzen 7000 series of desktop CPUs is one of the most highly anticipated announcements by PC and tech enthusiasts alike. This is because the Ryzen 7000 series of CPUs will be the first lineup of Ryzen CPUs to run AMD’s latest AM5 platform, as opposed to the Ryzen 1000 to 5000 series CPUs that were running on AMD’s older AM4 platform.

As we are inching nearer close to the launch of Ryzen 7000, more leaks and rumours have started to surface online about Ryzen 7000 and a recent leak this week shows concerning details of the SoC lineup as it shows off the high voltage draw of a supposed member from the Ryzen 7000 lineup.

The leak comes from Twitter user @9550pro, as the tweet shares a screenshot of an off-screen BIOS menu screen which shows off the motherboard and Vcore voltage draw of the chipset.

Source: Twitter

Starting from the motherboard, it is examined that the motherboard is a member of the MAG family of motherboards that are exclusive to MSI. Next is the B650 moniker, which means that the CPU is running on an AMD AM5-based motherboard. And since the AM5 platform was designed specifically for the Zen-4 based Ryzen 7000 CPUs to replace the AM4 platform, it is apparent to see why this could be a member of the upcoming Ryzen 7000 series lineup of desktop CPUs.

Moving onto the next detail, VCore. The image shared also details of the VCore voltage draw of the CPU which is at 1.532 V, which is quite concerning for an AMD CPU, as normally the average voltage draw of AMD CPUs is at 1.3-1.4V voltages.

In simpler terms, higher voltage draw leads to higher power draw, which leads to lower power efficiency, and higher temperatures and leaves the CPU more prone to thermal throttling.

Despite the concerns, the above statements only hold true if the finalised retail version of the Ryzen 7000 series is presented with the high voltage draw. The shared photo may be a Ryzen 7000 early test sample or engineering sample running in AMD’s research and development team to optimise its power efficiency and performance before its planned launch date in 2H 2022.

AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs & Radeon 7000 GPUs see surge in production

Sean — Wed, 13 Apr 2022 09:38:00 +0000

Despite the ongoing supply shortages issue, AMD is seemingly raising production for its upcoming series of graphics cards and processors. So we can expect the new Ryzen 7000 series CPU and Radeon 7000 GPUs to see better inventory.

The news arrives from Tongfu Microelectronics, who is a production partner of Team Red (Via 91Mobiles). According to the supplier, it is increasing the production of new AMD CPUs and GPUs to alleviate the ongoing shortages within the supply chain. Furthermore, Tongfu Microelectronics’s deputy general manager Xia Xin said that TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co) is also expanding the output of its advanced processes. This will help grow the company’s packaging and testing requirements.

For those unaware, there is an ongoing shortage of semiconductors all that has impacted various industries across the globe. This issue paired with raw materials becoming costlier led to companies like AMD to suffer, since their latest Ryzen 5000 CPU and Radoen RX 6000 GPUs were in short supply. Customers had to wait for resupplies or buy the PC parts at hiked prices from scalpers. So, the production rise should help the PC parts maker to better prepare for its next gen’s launch.

As of right now, the AMR Ryzen 7000 chips that are based on the Zen 4 architecture is rumored to begin mass production later this month and will launch sometime around late September 2022. This would be in line with the brand’s H2 2022 launch timeline that it had announced back in CES 2022. The new processors will compete with Intel’s latest 12th Gen Core processors and even its next gen 13th Gen CPUs as well.

AMD to share details about next-generation Zen 4 CPUs at CES 2022

Jeet — Thu, 23 Dec 2021 00:42:18 +0000

AMD has confirmed that the company will be unveiling its next-generation Zen 4 CPUs at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2022. The company’s CTO Mark Papermaster has said that some details will be mentioned at CES but more details will be shared at a later date.

This means that AMD won’t be launching the next-generation Zen 4 CPUs at the CES 2022 but will be revealing some of the key features. The Zen 4 was originally announced by the company in October last year at the Ryzen 5000 event.

In an interview with Forbes, Mark Papermaster said: “We’re excited to be revealing some additional details on our new product launches that will deliver phenomenal experiences, and as we’ve said, later in the year as it progresses we’ll share more detail on Zen 4, with some mentioned at CES and more announcements on it over the course of 2022.”

The company has scheduled its CES presentation on 4th January 2022 at 10:00 AM EST where Lisa Su, AMD’s CEO, is expected to talk about Ryzen 6000-series processors, Radeon graphics, and Ryzen 3D V-Cache technologies.

AMD has already confirmed that the next-generation Zen 4 chips will be manufactured using the 5nm process. The company is most likely relying on its existing partner TSMC for the manufacturing of chips.

If the reports are to be believed, then the chips will come with about a 40 percent improvement in performance. It is expected to support an AM5 socket that uses a Land Grid Array (LGA) design, breaking with AMD’s long history of Pin Grid Array (PGA) sockets.

After sharing some key details at CES 2022 in a couple of weeks, AMD is expected to actually launch the new chips sometime after July.
