- distances 7y agoLast time I checked on this, the promise was a lot less clear than everyone is making it up to be.
- llampx 7y agoElsewhere, Zen 3 has been rumored to be a full rewrite, i.e. a new microarch from the ground up. That doesn't jive well with maintaining socket compatibility with AM4.
- lliamander 7y agoThe words I've seen from AMD on this matter seem fairly clear that they intend to keep Zen 3 on AM4. Most likely they'll wait until Zen 4 on a 5nm process to switch to a new socket(in 2021).
