With clock speed up to 5.0 GHz.
5.0 GHz seem to be the limit for most processors (default/non-overclocked), but who knows maybe we’ll see 6.0 GHz or even 7.0 GHz in the near future.
Taken from Videocardz … Patrick Schur revealed new OPN (Processor’s Model Number) codes for two unreleased SKUs. Those SKUs are allegedly based on Vermeer, which suggests they are desktop CPUs.
According to Patrick, AMD is now working on two models: a 16-core CPU with a base clock of 3.4 GHz and boost up to 5.0 GHz and a 6-core processor with a base clock of 3.7 GHz and boost up to 4.6 GHz. The former would appear to be a refresh or Ryzen 9 5950X whereas the latter would appear to offer identical clock speeds to Ryzen 5 5600X.
B2 Stepping for Vermeer?! 😮
100-000000059-60_50/34_Y
3.4 GHz (up to 5 GHz)
Stepping: B2
Cores: 16100-000000065-06_46/37_Y
3.7 GHz (up to 4.6 GHz)
Stepping: B2
Cores: 6— Patrick Schur (@patrickschur_) May 17, 2021
While the boost clock of the alleged Ryzen 9 5950XT would be 100 MHz higher, the same wouldn’t apply to Ryzen 5 5600XT, which is listed with the same clock speeds as the current non-XT model. That said, the XT stepping may not necessarily mean the XT variants, it could simply be a model replacement, at least this logic could apply to the 6-core part.
