Some rumor and some info?
"AMD Ryzen samples have been sent to motherboard manufacturers for product validation, these engineering samples already run 4.5 GHz...
...Typically, and I do say this with a bit of hesitation and care, engineering samples run slower opposed to the final SKUs. Apparently, the manufacturers are also preparing for CPUs with 12 and 16 cores (well yeah .. doh!).
While these engineering samples reportedly are running 4.5 GHz, IPC improvements also are mentioned to be 15% clock for clock."
Sounding pretty good no? Now give us 5 GHz and 16 cores!
Maybe a new build is finally coming. Goodbye my sweet Haswell?...
