So when are the new APUs coming out? Will they be 4 or 6 cores?
Ryzen APU
I'm hoping for 4-core athlons and 6 core memezen 3
Same
Most leaks tend to point to 4 core though, the most recent ones to 6 cores. What to believe?
There was some info about this released already if I remember correctly. There aren't any 7nm APUs yet, but there will be 12nm refresh so that means you won't be seeing a huge bump in performance.
>t. writing this post on a 2200g that I picked up a few weeks back for $70.
i hope 4c/8t ryzen 3
my 2200g comes tomorrow; I'm excited.
what are you using now?
4c most likely. The arch is basically the same. It's just scaled down to 12nm.
APUs are basically low/mid tier mobile CPUs on desktop platform, so I wouldn't expect too much from it.
They may even keep the 7nm part as 4c/8t.
I want to see an APU with 6 cores and a GPU equal to RX570 with a price tag of 199$
This would easily sell tons.
x230 i5-3320m.
the 2200g is about 100% faster and has a much better integrated GPU
