ZEN 2 and ZEN 3 are also coming eventually too! It's almost too much power for one computer! lol
I love it!
A few weeks, back AMD’s CTO Mark Papermaster confirmed that the Zen 2 design has been finished
The company announced Zen+ cores in 12nm shipping by early Q2 and to replace the current Ryzen 7 stack.
The fact that the one after that is finished, brings a degree of certainty that we might see the Zen 2 designs next year.
This is when 7nm becomes a bit more mature and companies like Apple, Qualcomm and Samsung will help in the process. They will drive millions of mobile chips through the fabs and help the AMDs and Nvidias of the world refine the yields for higher complexity and bigger chips such as GPUs and CPUs.
Snapdragon 835 has around three billion transistors while AMD Ryzen 7 is likely to have 4.8 billion, Nvidia Volta has 21billion transistors and it is much harder to manufacture. Both Ryzen 7 and Volta GPU are significantly bigger chips and harder to manufacture too.
The Zen 2 design is complete and it improves on the original Zen core in Multiple Dimensions.
But I will gladly settle for the current TR 1950x with 64 gb ram! OMG!
For anyone that hasn't realized it yet!
THIS IS Literal NANOTECHNOLOGY AT THIS POINT! We have gone far beyond simple microprocessors... 7nm+ transistors! CRAZYNESS!!! That's so tiny!
