Data is leaked from amd flute, the soc of the next xbox scarlett

An AMD SoC chip, codenamed Flute (has been removed later), has appeared in the UserBenchmark database. This mysterious SoC could be the brain of Microsoft's next next-generation video game console, codenamed Project Scarlett, which Microsoft has said will use AMD Zen 2 architecture and Navi graphics.

AMD Flute would be the next generation XBOX Scalett console SoC

AMD is currently very busy producing custom designed chips for Microsoft and Sony. The chipmaker is producing the AMD Gonzalo SoC for the PlayStation 5, and with AMD Flute making an appearance, the new rumor is that the SoC will power Project Scarlett.

The filtered AMD Flute sample is currently identified by the code name "100-00000000004-15_32 / 12 / 18_13F9". It is a bit strange that the OPN (order part number) is included in the code name. On the other hand, it could mean that it is a qualification sample (EQ).

Based on the data seen here, the AMD Flute chip is an eight-core, 16-wire processor, which apparently comes with a base clock speed of 1.6 GHz and a boost clock of 3.2 GHz. There is no official information on whether AMD Flute is based on the Zen, Zen +, or Zen 2 microarchitectures. Microsoft has previously stated that Project Scarlett uses a Zen 2 processor, so that should be the architecture, considering the console will be out shortly. more than a year.

The AMD Flute sample includes the 13F9 PCIe ID, which alludes to the Navi 10 Lite silicon. As we've recently seen on a Linux display driver, there are a couple of primitive Navi 10 Lite variants. AMD Gonzalo's qualifying sample has the PCIe ID 13F8 and allegedly works with a 1.8GHz iGPU (Integrated Graphics Processing Unit) clock. Unfortunately, the UserBenchmark entry did not list AMD Flute's iGPU speed, prior to be eliminated, so we were left without a clue to know which of the consoles would be more powerful.

The Project Scarlett video game console is planned for release in the final months of 2020.
