AMD WIKI

 

Hello Guys Today we are here to discuss about a great topic hope you guys will enjoy this a lot  so lets get started

Today we are discussing about the new processors that will be launch by AMD soon

Before coming to main scenario I would like to introduce desktop processors of today's generation basically we are talking about AMD and their products so lets start

What is AMD?

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) is an American multinational semiconductor company based in Santa Clara, California, that develops computer processors and related technologies for business and consumer markets. While it initially manufactured its own processors, the company later outsourced its manufacturing, a practice known as going fabless, after Global Foundries was spun off in 2009. AMD's main products include microprocessors, motherboard chipsets, embedded processors and graphics processors for servers, workstations, personal computers and embedded system applications.

Products sold by AMD

Embedded CPUs

Main articles: Alchemy (processor) and Geode (processor) In February 2002, AMD acquired Alchemy Semiconductor for its Alchemy line of MIPS processors for the hand-held and portable media player markets.[209] On June 13, 2006, AMD officially announced that the line was to be transferred to Raza Microelectronics, Inc., a designer of MIPS processors for embedded applications

Embedded graphics

AMD builds graphic processors for use in embedded systems. They can be found in anything from casinos to healthcare, with a large portion of products being used in industrial machines. These products include a complete graphics processing device in a compact multi-chip module including RAM and the GPU.ATI began offering embedded GPUs with the E2400 in 2008. Since that time AMD has released regular updates to their embedded GPU lineup in 2009, 2011, 2015, and 2016; reflecting improvements in their GPU technology.

 RAM

AMD Radeon memory

In 2011, AMD began selling Radeon branded DDR3 SDRAM to support the higher bandwidth needs of AMD's APUs. While the RAM is sold by AMD, it was manufactured by Patriot Memory and VisionTek. This was later followed by higher speeds of gaming oriented DDR3 memory in 2013. Radeon branded DDR4 SDRAM memory was released in 2015, despite no AMD CPUs or APUs supporting DDR4 at the time. AMD noted in 2017 that these products are "mostly distributed in Eastern Europe" and that it continues to be active in the business.

CPU and APU products

AMD's portfolio of CPUs and APUs as of 2020

Athlon - brand of entry level CPUs (Excavator) and APUs (Ryzen)

A-series - Excavator class consumer desktop and laptop APUs

G-series - Excavator and Jaguar class low power embedded APUs

Ryzen - brand of consumer CPUs and APUs

Ryzen Threadripper - brand of prosumer/professional CPUs

R-series - Excavator class high performance embedded APUs

Epyc - brand of server CPUs

Opteron - brand of microserver APUs

Graphics technologies

As of 2017 technologies found in AMD GPU products include:

AMD Eyefinity – facilitates multi-monitor setup of up to 6 monitors per graphics card

AMD FreeSync – display synchronization based on the VESA Adaptive Sync standard

AMD TrueAudio – acceleration of audio calculations

AMD XConnect – allows the use of External GPU enclosures through Thunderbolt 3

AMD CrossFire - multi-GPU technology allowing the simultaneous use of multiple GPUs

Unified Video Decoder (UVD) – acceleration of video decompression (decoding)

Video Coding Engine (VCE) – acceleration of video compression (encoding)

 

So this is the brief of AMD and their history now we will discuss about there new Ryzen 4^th gen cpu’s

AMD's 4th generation Ryzen desktop processors are expected to launch around September 2020, sources in the motherboard industry tell DigiTimes. Codenamed "Vermeer," successor to "Matisse," these processors will be socket AM4 multi-chip modules of up to two CPU complex dies based on the "Zen 3" microarchitecture, combined with an I/O controller die. The "Zen 3" chiplets are expected to be fabricated on a newer 7 nm-class process by TSMC, either N7P or N7+. The biggest design change with "Zen 3" is the doing away of CCX arrangement of CPU cores, with each chiplet holding a common block of cores sharing a last-level cache. This, along with clock speed headroom gains from the new node are expected to yield generational price-performance increases.

The "Zen 2" based 8-core "Renoir" die is also expected to make its socket AM4 debut within 2020, succeeding the "Picasso" based quad-core Ryzen 3000-series APUs. This is a particularly important product for AMD, as it is expected to compete with Intel's 10th generation Core i5 6-core/12-thread processors in terms of pricing, while offering more cores (8-core/16-thread) and a faster iGPU. The 4th gen Ryzen socket AM4 processor lineup will launch alongside AMD's 600-series motherboard chipset, with forwards- and backwards-compatibility (i.e., "Vermeer" and "Renoir" working with older chipsets, and older AM4 processors working on 600-series chipset motherboards). AMD was originally expected to unveil these processors at the 2020 Computex trade-show in June, but Computex itself is rescheduled to late-September.
