AMD “Ryzen C7” Smartphone SoC Specifications Listed
- hajile 6y agoIs this AMD entering the ARM market again or Samsung using their Ryzen branding?
- Sathi 6y agoSamsung and AMD are collaborating and coming up with a SoC with ARM Cortex X1, A78 and A55 based CPU and AMD is providing the GPU.
- DedlySnek 6y ago> Manufactured on TSMC 5 nm process Seems weird that Samsung would use a competitor's fab to manufacture their own SoC
- baybal2 6y agoMaybe they aren't sure if they can get their 5nm running?
- ksec 6y agoIf you consider when their collaboration were announced and product shipping within ~18 months it seems the only choice would be to use TSMC instead of their own Fab, given both ARM and AMD has many experience with TSMC and the Cortex-X1 design likely have blueprint ready on TSMC.
- wmf 6y agoThis looks pretty fake, although a future Exynos may have similar specs.
- baybal2 6y agoOn other hand, it sounds way more real than previous rumours of AMD slapping ARM frontend onto Zen
- wmf 6y agoThat wasn't a rumor; that was AMD's official public roadmap. https://www.anandtech.com/show/7990/amd-announces-k12-core-custom-64bit-arm-design-in-2016 https://www.anandtech.com/show/7990/amd-announces-k12-core-c...
- slezyr 6y agoWhy ARM's SOCs use multiple types of cores? I can understand low power ones for power saving, but three types?...
- ksec 6y agoPower Budget, Transistor Budget. But in reality Cortex X-1 ( by default excluding custom changes ) is pretty much the same as Cortex - A78 but increase both internal and external bandwidth and cache along with double NEON unit. While the low performance is a completely different design. I still dont know how these thing schedule their workload.
