La mise à jour de la bêta d'Aida 64 mentionne Ryzen 3000, DDR4 à 5800 MHz

The Aida 64 benchmarking application may have revealed some intriguing new information about AMD’s next-generation processors and the memory they can support. In the latest beta update for the software Aida 64 namechecks a number of “AMD Matisse” CPUs, the codename for the Ryzen 3000 series of AMD chips that are slated to launch around Summer 2019. But it also highlighted compatible memory with those CPUs as reaching as high as 5,800MHz.

A near 6,000MHz DDR4 module seems rather far-fetched — we’d expect that from DDR5, perhaps, but not DDR4. THe current world record for memory overclocking is just 5,608MHz, as per PCGamesN, so we’d be impressed with AMD was capable of such high-memory speed support right out of the box. If it could, it’s no doubt a feature that AMD would mention, but then again, it hasn’t told us much of anything official just yet.

If AMD could deliver 16 cores and 32 threads on an affordable consumer chip as we expect it to, reaching up to near 5Ghz or beyond, and unprecedented memory bandwidth support, there would be no doubt of the Ryzen 3000 range’s dominance as the most powerful CPUs in the world.

That seems unlikely however, and could perhaps be a theoretical maximum for the X570 boards that the new range will support.

Ryzen 3000 CPUs were shown off for the first time at CES 2019 with a quick demonstration of an unnamed eight-core Ryzen 3000 CPU going toe to toe with Intel’s eight-core 9900K. They will launch before the end of Q2 2019.
