Advanced Micro Devices showed off some impressive Ryzen 5000 mobile processors today and teased the performance of its 3rd Gen Epyc server chips.

Those chips are aimed at keeping AMD’s performance lead over its rival Intel in the mobile and server markets. AMD CEO Lisa Su showed off the new chips in a keynote speech at CES 2021, the online-only tech trade show.

Nvidia Versus AMD: Where Jim Cramer Sees Opportunity
AMD is launching its Ryzen 5000 Series mobile processors for gaming laptops and thin-and-light notebooks. These eight-core x86 chips are built with a 7-nanometer manufacturing process (where the circuits are 7 billionths of a meter apart). They are also based on the Zen3 design for processor cores, which can process instructions 19% faster per clock cycle than Zen2 cores.

The H-Series focuses on top performance in laptops for gamers and content creators, while the U-Series focuses on thin-and-light notebooks with great battery life. The chips have four to eight cores and they range in power consumption from 15 watts to 45 watts.

AMD said the 5000 Series will be available in PCs in February, and we’ll see more than 150 systems using it. That compares to 100 systems for the Ryzen 4000 Series and 70 for the Ryzen 3000

I bought the same year I think around $2.50 a share, grabbed 6000 shares.
I almost sold in 19 when that shit hit like $30
One of the best decisions I ever made was to hold on to it.

They seem to have the M1 in their sights. It should be interesting to see how well they do.

Man, I was tempted to sell when it hit $9. Something told me to hold out.

I first bought some before 2016 when it barely above $2. Got scared because it dipped below $2 in I think 2015. Had 5000 shares at that point...Sold all of them and then decided to buy again in 2016.

Still kicking myself for selling the initial 5k.

If AMD really releases an ARM based chip with integrated ram, like they supposedly have in the works it could be a game changer.
They have always been good at manufacturing stuff at a lower cost without the sacrifice of performance, and really in the cpu market they got 1 competitor Intel.
GPU is a little different, but AMD can hold their own.
They do an M1 or any ARM based chip, stock gonna sky rocket

AMD, I believe, is fabless at this point so they can't cut their margins too low.

Need the stock to hit 130, so I can pay off the mortgage and splurge. My only regret is not buying more in 2016.

FCUK YA'LL... Lemme hold a dollar?!

Doesn’t Apple have one of those chips?
 
It is a little bit more complicated than this. I have worked in a research fab
characterising MOCVD machines, and I have very good familiarity with
general chip fabrication process. No I have not been involved in micro
processor fabrication, but I will tell you that one of the biggest challenges
associated with chip production is yield per wafer. The more complex is
the target device, the lower does the yield tend to trend. Adding say 2
gigs of eDRAM might all of a sudden call for addition of several billion
more transistors to a chip, increasing the opportunity for failure, and
thus the reduction in yield

And even if someone were to somehow pull off the feat of manufacturing
the device, peril might stalk it later in the form of increased heat.

The change in architecture would also call for a radical reconstruction of
the basic structure of a computer. Suddenly you would have embedded
RAM not subject to the motherboard based IRQ protocols, and other such
headaches.

I am not sure how many realise the number of pins on a chip needed to
address a terrabyte sized memory space, even if you use interleaving and
other fancy techniques..

This all to say nothing about the shielding and transmission line problems
encountered in conveying so much data so fast. At speed, circuit elements
change; open space becomes a conductive capacitor facilitating deleterious
leakage; a straight conductor becomes an inductor impending current flow
and fucking up phase relations...etc etc
.
Would this increase or reduce latency issues?
