AMD 6-core Ryzen possible after all
 

8-core chip can be split

It appears that earlier rumors that AMD Ryzen lineup might not include a 6-core SKU were a bit off as, according to fresh information, those are indeed real and should be coming soon.

As you know, the earlier rumor, started by Zolkorn.com, stated that AMD can't disable the half of the four-core Zen module, suggesting that the lineup will only launch in quad- and eight-core configurations, with and without SMT and at various frequencies.
