AMD not only announced new Epyc processors with a huge amount of cache memory, but also talked about future products of this line. In fact, this is AMD’s first detailed data on processor architecture since Zen 3.
In this case, we are talking about the Zen 4 architecture, which will be used for AMD processors next year. Epyc server CPUs based on this architecture will exist in two lines, which will be implemented for the first time.
The first generation is called Genoa. These CPUs will receive up to 96 cores and will be manufactured using the 5 nm process technology. These will be the first AMD Epyc processors since the launch of the family to receive more cores than their predecessors. Also new items will support DDR5 and PCIe 5.0. It will also be the first AMD platform to support the CXL interface.
But 96 cores is not the limit. The company is also preparing the Bergamo generation, which will receive a Zen 4c architecture optimized for cloud applications. Such processors will have up to 128 cores! At the same time, Genoa and Bergamo will have the same socket, but the former are expected next year, and the latter will be released in the first half of 2023.
Recall that just the other day we talked about Bergamo processors, and the source turned out to be right both regarding the specific architecture and the number of cores, making a mistake only with the name (the version of the architecture is called not Zen 4D, but Zen 4C). And if that source was otherwise correct, then Ryzen consumer processors with 32 cores await us. By the way, they may well be called Zen 4d cores, since AMD speaks of Zen 4c precisely as a solution for cloud computing.
