The frequency of references to the Ryzen PRO 4000G processors in the price lists of online stores suggests that, contrary to the official position of AMD, they will still appear in retail, albeit not in a boxed version. Other pleasant surprises for private enthusiasts will be the presence of solder under the cover and a free multiplier, which will facilitate overclocking of processors.
A freely variable multiplier has long become a familiar attribute of many AMD processors, but it is not in demand in the commercial segment, and therefore the first successes in extreme overclocking of the same Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G are impressive from this point of view - under liquid nitrogen, the processor frequency was raised to 5,8 GHz , the value of the multiplier in this case reached 57Γ. Of course, liquid nitrogen is impractical in daily use, but Ryzen PRO series processors can be overclocked above the nominal frequencies using air or liquid cooling.
Close attention is also paid to the quality of the standard thermal interface. About it from the pages ΡΠΎΠΎΠ±ΡΠΈΠ» AMD Director of Technical Marketing Robert Hallock. Unlike the Ryzen 3000G (Picasso) series processors, among which only the older Ryzen 5 3400G model could boast of solder under the cover, the Renoir desktop processors have solder under the cover for each model. This improves heat dissipation conditions compared to conventional plastic thermal interface.
For desktop versions of Renoir, as Robert Hallock confirmed, the number of PCI Express 3.0 lines allocated for communication with a video card has been increased from eight to sixteen, compared with mobile versions of processors of this family. You won't have to sacrifice performance if you use a productive video card.
Finally, the abundance of offers of Ryzen PRO 4000G processors in foreign online stores allows us to express confidence that by the end of summer they will also appear in Russian retail. The only thing that is better not to count on is the appearance of box sets on sale. These processors will be delivered in traditional blisters through system integrators, who are often closely associated with large retail chains.
