AMD Ryzen 3000 CPUs Allegedly Feature 15% Better IPC, Up To 4.5 GHz – X570 [Motherboards] Rumored To Have 40 PCIe Lanes, No 3rd Gen Ryzen Support on A320 Boards

motherboard makers have been supplied quad-core Zen 2 CPU samples to test them with their upcoming products. These CPUs were early samples which were only supplied for internal testing and not necessarily indicate final retail performance or clock speeds.

The report states that the samples allegedly feature a 15% boost in terms of IPC .. It is also reported that the boost frequency for these [quad core] samples is reported at up to 4.5 GHz


These were low end 4 cores for motherboard testing. Rumor noted previously is that the 16core/32thread will boost to over 5GHz. If that's combined with 15% higher instructions per clock, the new "gaming" Ryzen CPUs will be a significant step up.We'll see.

7nm Ryzen will be supported on 500 series, 400 series, and most 300 series motherboards -- but not supported on the low end 320 series motherboards (according to rumor).
