Naples, Rome, Milan, Zen 4: An Interview with AMD CTO, Mark Papermaster

IC: With the FP units now capable of doing 256-bit on their own, is there a frequency drop when 256-bit code is run, similar to when Intel runs AVX2?

MP: No, we don’t anticipate any frequency decrease. We leveraged 7nm. One of the things that 7nm enables us is scale in terms of cores and FP execution. It is a true doubling because we didn’t only double the pipeline with, but we also doubled the load-store and the data pipe into it.

IC: Now the Zen 2 core has two 256-bit FP pipes, can users perform AVX512-esque calculations?

MP: At the full launch we’ll share with you exact configurations and what customers want to deploy around that.

Eh, but the roundabout answer to the second question reads pretty much as "no" to me

if the data pipe is trully doubled then it doesnt matter

It's funny how Rome is completely destroying every single one of these damage control slides.

How it doesn't matter? You either can do it or you can't. If you can, why didn't ge just say you can?

IT'S NOT FAIR INTELBROS WE MUST FIGHT FOR WHITE GENOCIDE

because if the data throughput can remain the same but on a lower freq hence matching intel

it really does not matter

Dude asked if the two 256bit units can be used to perform 512bit operations. AMD guy chose not to say "yes". How does it NOT matter?
