Ryzen 7000 Processors Could Be Up To 37 Percent Faster Than Zen 3 CPUs

AMD's upcoming Zen 4 CPUs will reportedly be up to 37 percent faster than their Zen 3 counterparts. Alongside Intel, AMD is one of the two x86 CPU-makers in the world, and its current Ryzen 6000 lineup competes with Intel's 12-gen Core 'Alder Lake' processors. However, benchmarks scores suggest that the Alder lake CPUs are miles ahead of their AMD counterparts, something that the company is trying to rectify with its Zen 4 lineup.

At its Q1, 2022 earnings call earlier this month, AMD confirmed plans to launch a slew of Zen 4 'Ryzen 7000' products, including 'Raphael' for desktops, 'Dragon Range' for enthusiast gaming laptops, and 'Phoenix' for thin and light gaming notebooks. The Raphael desktop chips will be based on the company's new AM5 platform and targeted at enthusiasts and serious gamers. They will be released in the second half of this year, but there's no exact time frame for their launch.

Prolific tipster and YouTuber 'Moore's Law is Dead' has shared a ton of information about AMD's upcoming Zen 4, Zen 4C, Zen 5 and Zen 6 architectures. According to MLID's latest video, Zen 4 will improve the IPC (instructions per clock) by 15-24 percent and single-threaded performance by 18-37 percent over Zen 3 cores. The multi-threaded performance is also expected to see a similar boost. Zen 4 will also support AVX-512, PCIe 5.0, DDR5, LPDDR5, and more. Zen 4 is expected to be a faster version of the Zen 3 core with enhanced cache and higher clocks, and if the new details are correct, it will offer a massive performance boost over its predecessors.

One of the major changes in the upcoming Zen 4 processors would be their higher clock speeds compared to their Zen 3 counterparts. Recent leaks have already revealed prototypes and engineering samples with up to 5.2 GHz clock speeds, and MLID's latest video now seems to confirm that. According to the video, the Zen 4 CPUs might also see an 8-14 percent improvement in sustained clock speeds, which should also help increase their performance levels compared to Zen 3.

Another major change in the new chips will be the increased amount of L2 cache. According to the report, the Zen 4 processors would have double the amount of L2 cache as their Zen 3 counterparts while retaining the same amount of L3 cache. That means they should have a full 1MB of L2 cache instead of 512KB in Zen 3 while the L3 per core will remain at 4MB.

Overall, the Zen 4 lineup is slated to include the EPYC Genoa 7004 lineup for servers alongside the aforementioned Raphael, Dragon Range and Phoenix chips. It will also include Threadripper 7000 Storm Peak lineup that is expected to be released in Q1, 2023. Processors with AMD's Zen 5 core are expected to include EPYC Turin 700X, the Ryzen 8000 'Granite Ridge' and the Ryzen 8000 'Strix Point' lineups that are slated to release between H2, 2023 and H1, 2025.

CBS' Ghosts: Every Main Ghost Time Period & Backstory Explained

One of CBS' newest sitcoms,  Ghosts , features a cast full of spectral characters that each hail from a distinct time period and come with their own unique backstory and death. Though each of the eight ghosts has a wildly different perspective based on their different experiences throughout history, they nonetheless form a sort of family, which is one of the show's greatest charms. After all, being stuck with the same people for all of eternity allows for plenty of time to get to know each other. Ghosts , which is an adaptation of a BBC show of the same name, stars Utkarsh Ambudkar and Rose McIver (who played Liv Moore on five seasons of  iZombie ) as Jay and Sam, a young couple who inherit a mansion in upstate New York. To their surprise, however, the house also comes with several ghostly inhabitants, who Sam is able to see after a near-death experience. These are Thorfinn (Devan Long), Sasappis (Román Zaragoza), Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones), Hetty (Rebecca Wisocky...

The Hateful Eight's Original Ending Explained (& Why Tarantino Changed It)

The Hateful Eight has an ending full of blood and betrayal, as expected from any Quentin Tarantino movie, but this wasn’t the original ending – here’s why he changed it. Tarantino has explored different genres throughout his career; though he’s best known for his crime movies like Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction , he's also visited genres like martial arts (with both Kill Bill  films) and black comedy ( Once Upon a Time in Hollywood ). In addition, he's shared his version of westerns with Django Unchained and The Hateful Eight , with the latter going through some problems and creative changes even before it began shooting. Set in 1870, Tarantino's The  Hateful Eight follows eight strangers, all with different (and secret) motivations, who end up in a stagecoach lodge after seeking refuge from a blizzard. These characters are Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L. Jackson), John “The Hangman” Ruth (Kurt Russell), Daisy Domergue (Jennifer Jason Leigh), Chris Mannix (Walton Gog...

Why Spider-Man 3's Uncle Ben Retcon Doesn't Change Peter's Origin

Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 3 is often criticized for a major retcon made to Uncle Ben’s death , but this retcon ultimately doesn’t change Peter Parker’s classic origin story. Raimi’s third film in the iconic Spider-Man trilogy is often criticized, perhaps unfairly. While the film suffers from too many character arcs and plot threads and would have been better as two or three separate films, it does a more than adequate job adapting the Spider-Man comics and telling a sincere story about relatable, flawed, characters who are intertwined with the extraordinary, just as Stan Lee and Steve Ditko intended when co-creating the character. Uncle Ben’s retconned death may alter classic elements from the comic version, but it retains its most important aspects in regards to Peter’s characterization. 2002’s Spider-Man is, for much of the film’s first half, a faithful adaptation of Spider-Man’s 1962 origin story in issue 15 of the Amazing Fantasy comics. An awkward social pariah, Pete...
