AMD Confirms It Will Launch Zen 3 This Year - We Haven't Seen the Best From AMD Just yet
AMD for the what .. fifth time this year is confirming that ZEN3 will launch this year. This time the turn goes to AMD Executive Vice President of Computing and Graphics Rick Bergman, who confirmed that we will see the new Zen 3 based processors before the end of the year.
He also stated that we have not yet seen the best that AMD has:
So, what’s next for AMD in the PC space? Well, I cannot share too much, but I can say our high-performance journey continues with our first “Zen 3” Client processor on-track to launch later this year. I will wrap by saying you haven’t seen the best of us yet…
This remark was made during the announcements of the new Ryzen 4000 Desktop APUs. It is interesting to see that AMD reiterates this news so many times, and quite frankly they seem really enthusiast about it, so let's hope it is really good! According to rumors, the processors based on this new architecture would be up to 20% faster in single-core and 15% faster in multi-core, and that is once again a really significant leap.

Beat Intel in "cpu bound" gaming?
First they have to dig hard to beat this in gaming:
I love seeing your 10900k in every thread. It isnt redundant at all.

No one else is posting any results, just claims with no proof :p Like 3900x beating 9900k in games :p
Good thing this is a forum, so we all can post pretty much what we want. Unless "The boss" isn't liking it

To get "likes" on this forum, just press: AMD is king

*get insta likes*
PS: I want Zen 3 to pop off and crush Intel in both rendering and gaming. Only this will push the "singlecore" performance forward. Now the latency/singlecore performance for zen 2 is 4-5 years old.
Singlecore performance done right:

If the rumors about the 8-core CCX, unified cache, 15% IPC improvements are true then yes AMD should beat Intel at everything at least until Intel can make a CPU on 10nm+. The 8-core CCX should make all 8-core or less CPU's similar to Intel monolithic cores and as such have similar latencies which is the main issue with the very high FPS gaming. All speculation and rumors right now so have to wait and see but I hope the rumors are true as we need AMD fighting it out with Intel for years to come.

Impressive, what's the cpu score on timespy?

Hey AMD: if you're tired of people questioning Zen3, maybe you should have a less stupid naming convention for APUs (including mobile). The whole reason people are doubting Zen3 this time around is because the 4000 series APUs are based on Zen2.
