CPU Zen 2 News and Rumors Discussion

3600g looks really nice. Very likely to replace my 2400g once it comes out. Assuming it's AM4.
The TDP is higher, may be a problem for very compact builds. But not for me for sure.

3300g is quite interesting as well, it's next-gen 2400g.

I know right? The APU chips just keep getting better and better. AMD is destroying in the integrated graphics field.
Super bummed that I JUST bought the 2200G and the 3300G looks so much better already.

3300G 3.0GHz-3.8GHz 65wTDP 6 core 12 thread $129
3600G 3.2GHz-4.0GHz 95wTDP 8 core 16 thread $199

I thought the New APU chips weren't due for awhile though?

I'd love to see a variant that is 4C/8T with more Navi cores specifically aimed at the eSports/Gaming market. While I understand they don't want to cannibalize their 75W 3060 card, it would help them gain market share over Nvidia and Intel simultaneously while exploiting what I personally think could be a great market segment. Alternatively a more expensive gaming-oriented variant with on-die HBM instead of those extra two to four cores would be even better. The price point would likely be high enough it wouldn't scare off their budget GPU customer base.

The only way AMD are going to do this is through their custom semiconductor division ala: Subor Z

Why can't we (as a collective) petition AMD to get a Vendor rep on site and then we hammer that rep with ideas like this?
We have a lot of power to change things here at SFF !!!
We have the most technical audience of any forums that are SFF related, we just have too many lurkers and not enough voices

Q3 2019 for new the APU's

Are these all expected to be AM4 socket chips?

It's hard to say. AMD saying AM4 will support CPUs for 4 years worth of generations could very well be only a subset of the newest SKUs, we'll know in about a month possibly.
