MSI ads suspected of leaking AMD multi-core processor messages: Beyond 8 cores

When it comes to AMD's products, I believe that many DIYers have an impression: Core. It is true that AMD has been selling multi-core selling points for a long time in the past, but in addition to these two generations of Ryzen, the previous 4-core 8-core products are not very successful. However, Intel, which is now trapped in the 14nm process, has also begun to climb the core number. Not only has the quad-core been popularized below i5, but also 8-core or even 18-core processors have been released. In addition to the high-priced thread tearers, AMD The multi-core advantage is no longer obvious.

However, it seems that AMD is working on solving this problem. Recently, the board manufacturer MSI launched a new advertisement for its own B450 chipset motherboard, and the advertisement inadvertently leaked news about AMD's new multi-core processor.

In the advertisement, MSI highlighted the 'enhanced layout and digital power design for 8 core and up CPU'.

This sentence is very strange, because the B450 chipset does not support thread tearers, why does MSI have to separately support CPUs with '8 cores and above'?

Unless MSI has learned that AMD is about to introduce a new multi-core CPU on the B450 chipset, the number of cores for these CPUs is likely to exceed 8 cores.

It is difficult to determine the actual meaning of MSI's subtle expression. However, considering the development of the Zen 2 architecture has also revealed the news of the 12-core or 16-core Ryzen chip, so the inference of multi-core new products is very reasonable, then Ryzen Maybe you can play a dozen with i9.
