In R24 its 46% faster MT than a 7950X, 2052 vs 3000
42% faster in ST, 120 vs 170.

IMO that's too high, i'm thinking 20%, Mores Law insists on 13 to 15% and thinks that's good, its less than from Zen 2 to Zen 3 and Zen 3 to Zen 4. He also thinks Intel absolutely will be +40%, IMO he has some bias there.... He has a habit of taking anything Intel employees tell him as absolute fact, no matter how many times it turns out wrong.

But 40% is not impossible or unpresidented for AMD.
I suspect the 40% number is true but it will be for AI related tasks, I doubt we will get that in games.

From the leaks, it looks like AVX and INT performance is getting a big boost so things like Cinebench could get a 40%+ bump. Most things will probably see < 20%. CPU limited games that use AVX could also do well, but most are not that CPU heavy. Just fixing all the Zen4 security issues could make Zen5 5-10% faster than Zen4.

What issues?

Nice, looks like I'll be holding onto the De8auer delidding tool for a bit longer lol.

Now to wait for 3D cache, presumably early 2025.

I'm hoping they might reduced the 'delay' before the X3D chips appear, simply because the Zen4 X3D parts are likely to be better gaming performers than the Zen5 non-X3D parts which won't exactly encourage upgrades.

New rumours claim AMD increases base cache amounts in all Ryzen 9k SKUs, so x3D might not be needed or won't be as much of a jump in gaming anymore.

It will not be significant increase if it's not vcache, takes up too much space, memory stopped scaling ages ago, am5 is a tiny chip and ryzen 9000 is on a slightly better node than 7000, ergo there is no space for a major improvement in cache for non cache models

Time will show what it will actually do, but that could be part of the "40%" increase, as supposedly it's all levels of cache increase. Seems they used silicon savings on lower process to cram in more cache instead of more cores.

Anyway, just a rumour at this stage, not much confirmed info out there yet.

ChipHell are one of the ones who usually get it right.

Strix Halo.
AI APU
Zen 5 / RDNA 3.5.
16c 32t.

The GPU is much more interesting but lets go with the CPU first.

ST R23: 2480, that's 20.5% faster than a 7950X
MT R23: 42000, that's 10% faster than a 7950X
Impressive stuff for an APU but don't expect the Desktop variant to be much better.

NPU (AI engine) 45 to 50 TOPS

GPU:
40 RDNA 3.5 CU's (RX 6750 XT)
Memory: 256Bit LPDDR5X Bandwidth -500 GB/s

Time SPy: 13,000 ( RTX 4060 Ti 16GB = 13,365)
Port Royal: 6,500
-------------------
RTX 4060: 6,050
RTX 4060 Ti 16GB: 7,800
RX 7700 XT: 9,039
RX 7800 XT: 10,272

My score 24/7 score RX 7800 XT: 11,523.

The iGPU is impressive, its a Desktop 4060 Ti. AMD have finally made a properly powerful APU.

That memory bandwidth is nice! Desktop will get nowhere near that, even if they did quad channel (not going to happen). Hope they do a desktop APU with on-package RAM, will be better than the non-APU versions.
