And its not very pretty. What were you thinking amd

Slower then a stock 4770K in some tests

@ 5GHz (stock) & that's it? What is the TDP 220w? But it will sell....tks :pt1cable:

renz496 · Jul 14, 2013

i though this proc suppose to use LN2 to bresk world record hence the crazy TDP and asking price?

swifty_morgan · Jul 14, 2013

wonder how long the motherboard will last pumping out the voltage needed to keep that processor running?

swifty_morgan :

Shouldnt have an issue with good 990FX boards with atleast 8 power phase's

ElMoIsEviL · Jul 14, 2013

Yeah there is no way I could cool that down in this heatwave. From the consumers standpoint... this processor is pointless imo.

ElMoIsEviL :

It's all for PR. "Amd releases first 5Ghz Processor" but they leave out "It's 899.99 and loses to a 3.5Ghz 329.99 Core I7 4770K". I'm rooting for amd only because i'd love a 12 or 16 core Opty on AM3+ but it'll never happen.

I have a feeling Steamroller will come in a 12 or 16 core variant.

Every 990FX board wiould have to be redesigned to handle the power requirements. They'd be 250W processors

you would lose the headroom to overclock, but come on... how much power does an 8350 use at 4.8 ghz. If it isn't 250W it would be very very close

317watts

Hmmmm... Still i'd like to see an 8350's power draw at 4.8, something tells me it wouldn't be that far off.. however I will concede the point... you might just fry the mobo

Steamroller comes with a 28nm process node shrink. With that you can add 2 more modules to the existing 4 I think while keeping the power envelope modest.

I though SR was on 32nm. On 28nm 12 core should be very doable.

Yeah exactly what I'm thinking here some of the news but there are many links from Anandtech to Toms: http://www.techpowerup.com/167884/amd-adopts-28-nm-bulk-manufacturing-in-2013.html
