AMD Strix (1) APU Specifications & Platform Details
First up, we have the AMD Strix (Strix Point 1) family which will be using the standard monolithic APU design. These chips will be fabricated on the TSMC 4nm process node and will come in SKUs with up to 12 cores and 24 threads. We have seen several engineering samples leak out so far.
As for the cache, the APUs will adopt 12 MB of L2 cache (1 MB per core) and 24 MB of L3 cache which will be partitioned into 8 MB for Zen 5C and 16 MB for Zen 5 cores. The chips will also feature 32 KB of L1 Instruction cache and increase 48 KB of L1 Data cache (32 KB on Zen 4). The APUs will offer 16 PCie Gen 4 lanes.
