We already knew about a new AMD processor with 128 cores under Zen 4, but Zen 5 could double this number again with 256 cores!
256 cores and 512 threads for the AMD EPYC Zen 5 ?
Coming from 2 famous leakers, @ExecuFix and @greymon55, we learn today new information about the EPYC processors based on the Zen 5 architecture, named : Turin.
According to their information, the EPYC Turin would have a maximum (?) of 256 cores and 512 threads, with another version with 192 cores and 384 threads. We would then have up to 4 times more cores than the Milan processors based on Zen 3 and 2 times more than Bergamo based on Zen 4.
This number of cores would of course bring a very high power consumption, with a maximum voltage of 1.8V for both versions, as well as a cTDP (configurable TDP) that can go up to 600W (the basic TDP has not been mentioned).
The Zen 5 processors should arrive around 2024 and the versions with a high number of cores will compete mainly with ARM processors. It is of course too early to talk about new technologies that will be included with this architecture, however, we would be on an engraving from TSMC namely the N3 or N3E.
