Overview

  • AMD has announced it will begin disclosing clock speeds and core counts for its Zen 4c cores on official specification pages, a move that aligns the company with standard industry practices.
  • The decision comes after criticism that AMD's lack of transparency could lead to deceptive marketing practices.
  • AMD's Zen 4c cores, which are smaller and less performant than standard cores, have been absent from the company's main specification pages and marketing materials.
  • The company currently has five consumer chips with Zen 4c cores on the market, but the presence of these cores is not clearly communicated in product listings.
  • The changes to AMD's disclosure practices are expected to take a few weeks to implement.
