In a recent interview with James Prior, senior product manager at AMD (the man behind Threadripper) mentioned a number of things that are interesting. First and foremost, Prior mentions that socket AM4 will be supported until at least 2020, and it will support Ryzen 2, not be confused with the optimization of Zen, named Zen+.



Prior also mentioned Raven Ridge, the APU that makes use of Vega 11 GPU 11 enabled Compute Units = 704 shader procs (until now APUs only have had 8 and 10 CUs). 
 

 
Last but not least, Prior also confirmed that will be halting the production of RX Vega 56 and 64 reference models. This way they only make the GPUs which they sell to board partners. That clears up the selling space and thus partners will get far more chips available. Hopefully, that will get volume availability of the cards back on track.
