Amd zen would come with frequencies of 3.2 @ 3.5ghz

The AMD Zen processors are getting closer to us and as the days go by, new data begins to be revealed. A few weeks ago we were commenting that the AMD Zen Summit Ridge processors would be priced at $ 300 for the final consumer and now we learn about the frequencies that they would have as a base.

AMD Zen: 3.2GHz base @ 3.5GHz in Boost mode

The ADM Zen processors promise a breakthrough in terms of performance offered by current FX Bulldozer architecture and the different bechmarks that have emerged in recent months indicate that their performance is comparable to the Intel Skylake i7.

In a leak today, we see AMD plan to launch an Summit Ridge architecture 8-core processor that would come with a base 3.2GHz frequency and reach 3.5GHz in a Boost mode.

The new AMD processor promises to be faster than the current eight-core Intel Core i7 5960X and the 6950X has ten cores, both in the $ 999 and $ 1, 299 range. If it is true that AMD marketed the Summit Ridge top of the range at the price indicated in the filtered table, about 500 dollars, it would be a major blow.

Guru3D echoes a user named DresdenBoy, who had already leaked other previously quite reliable data. How do you come to the conclusion that Summit Ridge works with frequencies of 3.2 and 3.5GHz? By product code number:

1D3201A2M88F3_35 / 32_N

'32' is the base frequency and '35' is the frequency in Boost, while the number 8 is the total number of cores and the letter D refers to 'desktop', which means that it is a processor for desktop computers.

According to this leak, it seems that what was said a few days ago will be fulfilled, that there would be an 8-core Summit Ridge processor model that would be marketed for around 300 dollars, in this case about 350 dollars with a performance similar to an i7 6850K. from Intel.

AMD plans to launch these processors in early 2017.
