Only quad- and octa-core SKUs
According to the latest rumor, AMD's upcoming Ryzen CPU lineup might lack 6-core version, due to the fact that AMD cen't partially disable the four-core Zen module.
According to a rumor started by Zolkorn.com and spotted by PCGamesHardware.de, AMD will not be able to deactivate half of the four-core Zen module, which means the lineup will only launch in quad- and eight-core models, with and without SMT (Simultaneous MultiThreading).
This new rumor contradicts some previous rumors that AMD Ryzen series will include a full lineup, including a dual-core (with two cores disabled) and six-core versions.
