If I’m reading this correctly... the expected soon to be released AMD 7nm mobile chips (early 2020) will potentially consume 50% less power than their current generation?
With 5nm further improving that 7nm another 30% reduced power?
If so, we’re talking 25-35% of the current power draw for the same speed in the next 18-24 months?
I have to be wrong here... I know they use a design which doesn’t get 100% of the Benefits due to the “chiplet” arch, but still.
- wmf 7y agoMaybe not 50% less, but it is definitely more efficient. https://www.anandtech.com/show/14605/the-and-ryzen-3700x-3900x-review-raising-the-bar/19 https://www.anandtech.com/show/14605/the-and-ryzen-3700x-390... (Also, I think a 50% reduction followed by 30% would be 35% of current power not 15.)
- lettergram 7y agoFair - I’ll edit, I did the math wrong (I was looking at each iteration N7P, N6, N5, N5P). However, judging from their graph not all paths should be multiplied.
