What if the A17 was clocked up to the same clock speed as the 7950x, do you think that the A17 would not score higher?

- brucethemoose2 3y agoI don't think thats even possible, as the A/M silicon is specifically designed/fabbed for lower clockspeeds.
- ksec 3y agoThat is like saying every single Intel CPU cant be overclocked because they were not designed to do so. There certainly is a limit ( It definitely cant do 5Ghz ), but I am willing bet a 20% is easily achievable with enough cooling.
- _0ffh 3y agoMaybe one could get f_clock a bit higher, but what would be the point comparing an overclocked CPU with one working at normal frequency?
- _0ffh 3y agoThe A17 is already on the TSMC 3nm process, while the 7950X is on TSMC 4nm. If anything, the A17 has the advantage here and the real question is, where the AMD chip would land if it was produced with the same technology.

- _0ffh 3y agoI'm sorry, the original post was about the 7640U, which is indeed on 4nm. The 7950X, though, is on 5nm.
