AMD Introduces Ryzen 7040U Series with Tiny Zen 4C Cores

AMD has introduced two new Ryzen 7040U-series chips for thin and light laptops, combining regular Zen 4 CPU cores with smaller Zen 4c cores that save space. The Zen 4c cores have the same capabilities as Zen 4 cores but take up 35% less space on the silicon die. These chips, codenamed "Phoenix 2," feature a heterogeneous design and combine high-performance Zen 4 cores, high-efficiency Zen 4c cores, and RDNA3 graphics cores. The new CPUs aim to offer more options for consumers, including smaller, cheaper chips with increased core counts.

AMD Introduces Zen 4c Cores for Enhanced Efficiency in Ryzen 7040U Series

AMD has introduced two new processors, the Ryzen 5 7545U and Ryzen 3 7440U, which feature the smaller and more power-efficient Zen 4c cores. These chips are part of the Ryzen 7040U series designed for thin and light notebooks. The Zen 4c cores offer the same performance as Zen 4 cores but at lower clock speeds, resulting in improved energy efficiency. The Ryzen 5 7545U features two Zen 4 cores and four Zen 4c cores, while the Ryzen 3 7440U has one Zen 4 core and three Zen 4c cores. AMD's decision to integrate Zen 4c cores in their mobile platforms aims to provide better power efficiency and performance for sub-15W chips.

AMD Unveils EPYC 8004 "Siena" CPUs: Zen 4c for Edge-Optimized Servers

AMD has released the EPYC 8004 series, the final member of its 4th generation EPYC processor family. The EPYC 8004 series, codenamed Siena, is a low-cost subset of EPYC CPUs designed for the telco, edge, and price-sensitive market segments. It features between 8 and 64 CPU cores based on the Zen 4c architecture. Siena offers lower performance and fewer CPU cores compared to AMD's Genoa chips, but it optimizes for cost and energy efficiency in non-datacenter environments. The EPYC 8004 series utilizes the same hardware as the Bergamo series, including the 5nm Zen 4c core complex die (CCD) chiplets and the 6nm EPYC I/O Die (IOD). The Siena platform introduces a new server socket, Socket SP6, which allows for cheaper motherboards. AMD is launching Siena with 12 chips, each differentiated by the number of CPU cores available. The flagship Siena part, the EPYC 8534P, offers 64 Zen 4c cores, while the EPYC 8024P features 8 CPU cores. Siena chips are available now, with prices ranging from $5,450 to $409 in 1,000 unit quantities.

AMD EPYC Bergamo and Genoa-X: Unleashing Unprecedented Performance

AMD has released the EPYC 9754 processor, part of the Bergamo lineup, which offers up to 128 cores and 256 threads per socket. The processor, built on the Zen 4C core architecture, aims to maximize core density and power efficiency, making it appealing to cloud service providers. With the ability to provide up to 16 cores per CCD, Bergamo offers improved performance compared to previous Genoa processors. The EPYC 9754 has a base clock of 2.25GHz, an all-core boost speed of 3.1GHz, and a maximum boost clock of 3.1GHz, with a configurable TDP of 320 to 400 Watts. The processor is priced at $11,900 USD.

AMD's EPYC Bergamo CPUs with 128 Zen 4C cores now available for servers.

The first benchmarks of AMD's EPYC Bergamo CPU with Zen 4C cores have been published, showing a 41% performance uplift over the flagship Genoa chip and a 42% lead over dual Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H platform. The dual-socket solution delivered a 2.42x increase in performance over the fastest Threadripper Pro CPUs. The Bergamo CPU already being much faster than Intel's Sapphire Rapids may spell bad news for the upcoming Sierra Forest E-Core-only chips.

AMD's EPYC CPUs: More Cores, More Speed, More Competition.

AMD has announced the release of its high-density "Bergamo" server CPUs, based on the Zen 4c architecture, offering up to 128 CPU cores and shipping now. The Zen 4c architecture is designed to maximise the number of vCPUs that can run on top of a single, physical CPU, making it ideal for the cloud computing market. The new chips are more energy-efficient than AMD's current-generation flagship EPYC 9004 "Genoa" chips, making them a strong competitor to Arm-based rivals. The Bergamo chips are also socket compatible with the rest of the EPYC 9004 series, using the same SP5 socket.
