From ExtremeTech: AMD has released an investor presentation focused on the products the company will introduce later this year. The deck mostly rehashes the advances the company has already publicized regarding 7nm, Epyc versus Xeon performance comparisons, and the improvements to its Radeon Instinct family. There is, however, one slide that confirms 3rd Generation Ryzen will debut mid-year:
A mid-year launch for 3rd Generation Ryzen has always made the most sense given AMD’s communicated timelines. Mid-year likely means at the beginning of Q3 (July-September), though it’s possible that AMD could also go for a late Q2 launch in June. We should either hear about these products at Computex with a launch aligned to the show or see them announced at Computex, with the launch following shortly thereafter. It’s not clear if AMD will launch third-generation Threadripper immediately on the heels of Ryzen3 (I can’t write “3rd Gen Ryzen” every single time I mention the same product or else the Journalism Gods and Mrs. Melvin from junior-year English class will punish me).
The GPU roadmap also got an update, but with much less granularity.
