Description:
AMD CTO says the firm could not be more thrilled than with the next
generation of products, no less.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

AMD is set to share more details on its future Zen 4 processors, which are expected to arrive later next year, at CES 2022 , alongside all the other stuff Team Red will have at the show.

This comes from AMDs Chief Technology Officer, Mark Papermaster, who gave an interview to Forbes and explained that the next-gen Zen 4 CPUs will indeed
get some kind of an airing at CES.

Papermaster said: With regards to the upcoming generation I point to CES in January. Were excited to be revealing some additional details on our new product launches that will deliver phenomenal experiences and as weve said, later in the year as it progresses well share more detail on Zen 4 with some mentioned at CES and more announcements on it over the course of 2022. It
will be a very exciting year for AMD.

Papermaster also mentions we could not be more thrilled than with the next generation of products elsewhere in the interview.

Of course, AMD also has refreshed Zen 3 CPUs using 3D V-Cache tech with up to 96MB L3 cache, Papermaster notes elsewhere, and that as we enter 2022, well
be taking a product line [Ryzen 5000] that were already proud of and put it
on steroids.

Its expected that these powered-up Zen 3 processors will be revealed at CES, potentially alongside new laptop chips and maybe fresh Threadripper PRO
models oh, and maybe , just maybe, well get a peek at (much-needed) new budget graphics cards too. Analysis: Attempting to pull focus away from Alder Lake mobile at CES?

This is exciting news from AMDs CTO because we werent really expecting to
hear anything about Zen 4 chips at CES, given that they are still some way off, being likely to land in the second half of 2022 (perhaps in Q3, we can hope, remembering that Lisa Su has previously suggested that this is when AMD could start to overcome its supply problems with chip production).

Further regarding Zen 4 chips, Papermaster mentions optimizing not just for better performance which is obviously a given but ever increasing battery life, and while again power-efficiency is a given for the goals of a new generation of silicon, its interesting to see it highlighted specifically here.

Particularly in the light of Intel Alder Lake processors , the newest
products from Team Blue use efficiency cores that will doubtless considerably up the ante for battery longevity with laptops, when 12th-gen mobile CPUs arrive. And theyre expected to be revealed at you guessed it CES just
around the corner. Intel vs AMD : which is best?
