AMD Roadmap Update Points to RDNA 3 GPUs releasing this year, ‘Zen 5’ CPUs in 2024

Just a few weeks after announcing the first details of its upcoming Ryzen 7000 series desktop CPUs, AMD has disclosed an outline of its consumer and server products roadmap for the next two generations. This was announced during AMD’s Financial Analyst Day, where CEO Dr. Lisa Su spoke about the company’s plans to capture a part of the projected $300 billion market for high-performance computing solutions. While the event is focused towards financial analysts and shareholders, disclosures about AMD’s competitive positions in various markets include information about upcoming products. Also, the company now has a new slogan: “Together we advance”.

 

Zen 4 will also power the upcoming ‘Genoa’ line of Epyc server CPUs as well as a new line of ‘Bergamo’ based on a density-optimised variant called Zen 4c for cloud-native computing applications. ‘Genoa-X’ variants will feature AMD’s integrated 3D V-cache, a vertically stacked layer of high-speed memory on top of the CPU die. Another product line codenamed as ‘Siena’ will target a new market in intelligent edge and communications equipment.

 

‘Zen 5’ is a ground-up redesign planned for launch in 2024 and should further improve performance and efficiency as well as introduce new optimisations for AI and machine learning for consumer Ryzen CPUs codenamed ‘Granite Ridge’. These CPUs will use 4nm and 3nm processes. The next Epyc generation will be codenamed ‘Turin’ and should be released in late 2024.
