The majority of technologies that can be found in the IT sector are constantly evolving, offering greater performance and power than their predecessors, while making it much easier to run various programs and applications that require a load of important work. Processors Zen5 of AMD They will arrive this year with a large number of new features that we will see until their launch, improving the Zen 4 in every aspect.
To be the next big step forward AMDthe new CPUs based on the architecture Zen5 They would supposedly arrive at the end of 2024 to try to dominate the processor market, either due to the performance and power they offer, or due to the possibility of being able to choose the most appropriate range according to our budget. With these new processors, the company that created the Ryzen will attempt to completely dominate a burgeoning market, driven primarily by users rather than businesses.
Zen 5 news continues to surprise
The launch of the new processors is getting closer and closer AMD, and for this reason we also learn a series of additional details that allow us to see what improvements this new range of CPUs will offer compared to its previous architecture. And Zen 4 is not exactly an architecture that is not very powerful, but still, the comparison with Zen5 This really makes us think that the potential of these processors is going to be much greater than that of their previous generation.
Now, thanks to a leaked report, we can see a series of new features compared to the previous version of the architecture used by the processors. Ryzen of AMD, among them is the fact that they will double the capacity of the floating point unit. This implies that unlike processors based on the Zen 4 architecture, the new Zen5 They will integrate a 512-bit FPU, a big step forward for working with AVX-512 tasks.
In this way, if we add all the improvements that the architecture change is supposed to imply, we can see that Zen5 It will not only be a change of generation, since normally we can imagine that things will obviously go better, but it will also be the way in which AMD It will seek to position itself as one of the leading companies in the sector of processors created primarily for users.
How was this improvement applied?
One of the things we need to be clear about is that ultimately improving a technology is not easy, in the case of FPU related improvement this implies that it is necessary to implement better support systems to efficiently manage data and instructions. In this way, AMD has made a series of changes to its processors to achieve this, offering a series of improvements across several key aspects.
To achieve this, the processor development company Ryzen, increased the L1 DTLB buffer size and download queue capacity; we doubled the bandwidth of the L1 data cache and increased its size to 48 KB; They managed to reduce the delay of some FPU operations by one cycle and also increased the number of integer execution pipelines to 10.
