New rumours surrounding AMD’s next-generation Zen 6 processors have surfaced, indicating a renewed push for higher clock speeds.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

The latest leaks from HXL<\/a> (via Wccftech<\/a>) suggest that Intel’s Coyote Cove P-cores are poised to claim the IPC (Instructions Per Clock) crown. Rumours indicate that Intel’s focus on a \u201cwider\u201d execution engine is paying off, allowing Nova Lake to process more instructions per cycle than AMD’s upcoming Zen 6. However, IPC is only half the battle, as AMD is expected to counter this with raw speed.\n<\/p>\n

Early reports for Zen 6 (codenamed Olympic Ridge) suggest that the move to TSMC’s N2P (2nm) process is enabling clock speeds as high as 7.0GHz<\/a>. This would represent a massive jump over the 5.7GHz boost clocks of the Ryzen 9000 series. To complement these speeds, AMD is also restructuring its chiplets, with Zen 6 reportedly moving to a 12-core CCD (Core Complex Die) design, enabling a 24-core flagship with better intra-core latency and a unified 48MB L3 cache per chiplet.\n<\/p>\n

KitGuru says: If all of this proves true, then the next-generation desktop CPUs from Intel and AMD will be very interesting to compare when the time comes.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
