I didn’t get the reference and at this point I’m too afraid to ask.
5700xt bros will this be our savior?

I don’t know if using the name of somebody known for bringing the fire is the best way to name a revision of a CPU already known for running very hot…
They’re intentionally designed to run that hot… They don’t use very much power at all. It would be different if you lost any meaningful performance with cooling capacity increases past minimum.
Prometheus - The Fire Bringer 🔥 . Will the performance be “fire”, or will it run hot as fire? Or maybe if it’s the ‘c’ parts, the lower production costs and increased margins will be “fire” on AMDs balance sheet.
If the rumors that the -C parts are being fabbed on TSMC 3nm are true, then the idea that there will be increased margins for the cloud server variants vs Turin might not end up being true at all.
I think we’re going to see a lot of Zen5c cold sold with hyperthreading disabled. You get the density of the smaller core and the security benefit of taking out a lot of speculative execution vulnerabilities.
There was another rumor about doubling the size of the CCX for Zen5. So the ‘Bergamo Next’ could be 12x 16-core Zen5c dies on the package. 192 Threads of secure dense goodness.
Is it because it’s gonna run hotter than ever?
