The year 2019 has been a good one for AMD in terms of its CPU and GPU products. Rumors also suggest that the company is not done yet in announcing new processors this year. Information leaks may have recently uncovered a new set of Threadripper offerings or the company’s so-called high-end desktop (HEDT) chipsets.
AMD rumors: New HEDT arriving in fall?
Unannounced products of AMD have been the subject of numerous leaks in the previous weeks. While this is still not a formal way to get information on upcoming chipsets, the listed benchmark results from the performance of supposed upcoming AMD chips are promising.
One of the rumored AMD Threadripper chips to be announced soon appeared on a Geekbench listing under the codename Sharkstooth. The results were uploaded on Aug. 13 and show a 5,677 single-core and 94,772 multi-core performance when used on a Linux 5.2.8 operating system with an AMD WhiteHavenOC-CPU motherboard.
The possible AMD Threadripper clocked in with a base frequency of 3.60 GHz, according to the image originally shared by Twitter user @momomo_us. But the clearer hint that it is going to be a HEDT chipset is it works with 32 core and 64 threads.
The launch of very powerful CPUs is not that surprising since AMD already revealed in March that its 2019 roadmap would close with a third-generation Ryzen Threadripper CPU. But for some reasons, the company discreetly removed it from the list in the following investors meeting last May.
With the new information leaks surfacing online, hopes are up again for an update on the AMD HEDT offerings. Meanwhile, a report from DigiTimes in July also claimed that AMD and Intel both plan on announcing new high-powered CPUs in October.
More people are using AMD CPUs; Company overtakes Nvidia in GPU market share
As mentioned, 2019 has been a good one for AMD. PassMark reports that more consumers are using AMD processors as of the Q2 2019. Intel still holds more than half of the microprocessor market share worldwide, but AMD made a significant change this year. In Q2, the shares were at 76.9 percent for Intel and 23.10 percent for AMD. But that changed in Q3, as Intel goes down to 68.10 percent while AMD’s share rose to 31.90 percent.
AMD also saw improvements in its GPU shipments versus Nvidia within this year. Jon Peddie Research reports AMD’s numbers increased to 9.8 percent while Nvidia’s barely moved at -0.04 percent in Q2 2019.
