When AMD introduced its Zen 4-based Ryzen 7000 processors in August, it introduced a peak clock charge of 5.7 GHz for the top-end, 16-core Ryzen 9 7950X mannequin. That CPU is anticipated to spice up to five.85 GHz underneath Precision Enhance Overdrive, however that is solely on two cores. Even 5.7 GHz is effectively above the all-core clock pace, however TUM_APISAK noticed a consequence within the CPU-Z Validator that has the entire chip working at slightly below 5.8 GHz.
The CPU is sort of actually underneath some pretty unique cooling—a big liquid-cooling radiator in a custom-loop setup, probably with a chiller—however one other contributing issue to the cool-running efficiency is the comparatively low 1.4v core voltage. Whereas 1.4v in all probability sounds excessive to of us extra acquainted with Intel CPUs, it is really fairly regular so far as Ryzen overclocking goes. Both this CPU is a golden pattern, and it isn’t usually very steady at these clocks, or maybe Zen 4 is definitely an overclocking beast.
It is nearly foolish to put in writing a few leak like this only one week earlier than the CPUs launch formally, however it’s hardly even a leak—the CPUs are already supplied by illicit retailers in China and France. As typical, you may anticipate that we’ll have extra data for you nearer to launch.
