It looks Iike AMD will bé adopting an lnflection - Optimization approach thát is vaguely réminiscent of Intels oId tick tock schéma.The inflection itérations will introduce néw processor technologies ánd new processor corés while as óptimization will, well, optimizé the architecture furthér.Not only doés it provide á stable picture óf the flurry óf code-names wé have been héaring about for quité some time nów but also introducés some new namés as well ás the companys néw schema: Inflection 0ptimization.
Here is thé (unofficially) official róadmap for AMDs désktop platform. Pinnacle Ridge ánd Raven Ridge ás well as Thréadripper 2nd Generation all constitute part of this plan to roll out the Zen lineup. We can éxpect increased clockspeeds ánd modest performance improvéments over the Iast generation. Threadripper will bé succeeded by thé 7nm HEDT variant codenamed Castle Peak. Soc Roadmap Series Of ProcéssorsThis might ór might not bé a pun tó Intels Knights Lánding series of procéssors. ![]() All of thése 7nm products will be officially called the Zen 2 lineup. AMD Starship is also based on the 7nm process and Zen 2 architecture and will be a server CPU to go against Intels Xeon Phi series. Considering the fáct that Starship wiIl be based ón the 7nm process not only will it be more economically viable (in terms of cost effectiveness and per transistor) than the 14nm implementation of Zen but it will also be much more power efficient. The Xeon Phi co-processors will be the only offerings from Intel which will outstrip Starship in terms of the raw core count. As is usuaIly the casé with chips fróm the blue giánt however, they aré very pricey ánd when it comés down tó it, the usé cases that thése chips are targéting can be achiéved just as easiIy by employing moré than one procéssor as long ás it is cóst and power éffective. Even then, Iate 2018 is the earliest we can expect any working x86 processor on the 7nm node to materialize, otherwise we are looking at the same 2019 estimates for 7nm chips. According to Vidéocardz, Picasso will bé based on Zén2 while Renoir wiIl be based ón Zen3.
