AMD Plans New High-end Ryzen CPUs, Will Feature 16 Cores, 36 Threads, Cheaper And Better Than Core i7-6950X

AMD's Ryzen CPUs have thrown a wrench into Intel's monopoly of the CPU market. The new AMD CPU's promises to bring more cores and threads which result in better performance at a lower price. So far, only the Ryzen 7 series has been released and benchmarks show that the AMD CPUs are consistently beating Intel processors in multi-threaded tasks and content creation at a significantly lower price. But it seems that AMD isn't stopping at Ryzen 7 as it plans to build a monster 16-core, 32-thread CPU.

Forbes reports that the new AMD Ryzen CPU will have a new platform to take advantage of the monster CPU. The new CPU will have 6 more cores and 20 more threads than Intel's flagship, the Core 07-6950x which has 10-cores and 16-threads. If an increase in performance directly translates to more cores and threads, AMD will have the upper hand in this battle.

According to WCCFtech the new AMD Ryzen CPUs is reportedly support a Land Grid Array with the pins in the CPU socket similar to Intel. Ryzen CPUs lack the quad-channel memory support which the Intel X99 currently supports. With AMD not fully utilizing the platform, it seems that there is still room for growth which is where the supposed monster AMD CPU will come in.

Moreover, the new Ryzen CPUs will come in at a cheaper price compared to Intel's flagship processor. The Core i7-6950X comes in at $1700 but the new AMD Ryzen CPU will sell at $1000. It will also come in at twice the size of its intel counterpart to support the additional cores.

The Intel Core i7-6950X is the only CPU that consistently beats the Ryzen 7 CPUs. And with the new AMD CPU, the tech company plans to usurp Intel's throne at the top of the CPU wars. AMD plans to beat Intel in every level; top to bottom. Intel currently still has the best CPU that money can buy. But that may change with AMD's new CPU. This time, however, the best CPU may not be the most expensive. Intel should be worried.
