- AMD CPU Roadmap (2018-2020):
AMD is gearing up to make some announcements of its next-gen products tomorrow at the 'Next Horizon' event, but while that is going on, we have some rumors regarding the long-awaited Zen 2 architecture, which will power the Ryzen 3000 series chips..
Zen 2-based AMD Ryzen 3000 would come with great improvements in IPC and frequencies
The frequencies and IPC performance of AMD Zen 2 based processors will be much higher than what we are currently seeing in the Zen + based chip series. AMD would be ready to show this at tomorrow's event.
AMD will talk a lot about its 7nm products, which include both CPUs and GPUs. While the GPU talk would primarily focus on Vega 20 with a possible look at AMD's Navi GPU, which is slated for release in 2019, the CPU talk would focus on the architecture of the next-gen AMD Zen 2 CPU..
AMD's Zen 2 architecture has been around for a long time. The AMD design team started working on Zen 2 right after finishing work on the first Zen architecture (2016). Zen + (Ryzen 2000) was an improvement on that original design, but most AMD engineers were always focused on the Zen 2 design. In February of this year, it was reported that AMD had finished designing the chip architecture and It would be available for testing later this year with a range of products available starting in 2019.

Wccftech fontAmd officially releases epyc rome, more cores and higher frequencies
AMD's EPYC Rome series is the successor to the first generation of EPYC Naples processors that launched two years ago.
Amd would have lowered the frequencies 'boost clock' in ryzen 3000
AMD had been too aggressive with the boost clock, and with a view to improving reliability, those frequencies would now have been lowered.
Nvidia ampere, higher rt performance, higher clocks, more vram
The rumors stemmed from leaks about next-generation Nvidia Ampere technology that the company shared with its partners.
