They, again, use an interesting binning trick:
They sell 2 low bin dies on a single package as a superior product to a 1 die good bin, and delay a 2 good die release:
$ per core:
16C $50
12C $45
8C $56
6C $50
$ per die:
16C $400
12C $275
8C $450
6C $300
This time though, they decided to linearise boost clocks against the place in the lineup: i.e. 8C now has boost below 12C, and 16C.
- pedrocr 6y agoWhat would be the 2 good die release? They've already announced the line-topping AM4 part that uses all the cores from the two dies. Isn't the next step up a four die part in a Threadripper packaging on a different socket with some cores disabled?
