Yet another leak, this time it's not so much the intricate technology specifications, but rather a roadmap and timeline, showing not just the codenames of upcoming Zen2 but also Zen3. Looks like AMD is going for the old masters in painting, Castle Peak, Matisse, Picasso, Vermeer and Renoir.



The leaks originate from Informatica Cero and appear to originate from a recent sales kickoff event for retailers and distributors held by AMD. It is not unthinkable that all the leaked content from the past day or so, originates from there. The roadmap shown there is revealing the codenames of upcoming Zen2 and Zen3 processors. As spotted by Videocardz, a 2nd Generation Ryzen Threadripper (Zen+) would see a successor next year called Castle Peak. In 2020 AMD is set to unveil a new architecture as Zen3 NG HEDT, listed for a third generation Threadripper. For regular Ryzen it's famous classic painting artists, better called old masters. Matisse and Picasso codenames we already heard of, Vermeer and Renoir are new.


 

Ryzen 2000 (Zen+ released in April) codenamed Pinnacle Ridge would bee succeeded by Matisse next year (Zen2) and replaced by Vermeer (based on Zen3) in 2020. Raven Ridge APUs are to be succeeded by Picasso and Renoir, based on Zen2 and Zen3 respectively.

 

 

In the lower slide you'll notice that once again the four Zen+ processors for Ryzen 2000 are mentioned. Well, when it rains, it poors.
