Zen 6 Kernel Patches Put Numbers on a Third Core Type

Feature image with three horizontal bars drawn to scale from the hard-coded Zen 6 client frequency ceilings, 5025 for the performance core and 3524 for the dense efficiency core in grey, and a shorter amber bar at 2399 for the new low-power core, above a headline reading low-power core at 0.47x.

AMD's kernel patches put the first numbers on Zen 6's new low-power core, Intel's own parts store names LGA1954 alongside Nova Lake-S, and G.Skill brings EXPO ULL to a mainstream AM5 memory kit.
