AMD Talks and Shows 7nm ZEN2 processors - Ready in 2019
AMD on Computex, also gave a small update on their 7nm Zen2 processors. AMD will first introduce 7nm processors on the EPYC server platform followed by the consumer parts in 2019.
AMD mentions it already has 7nm Zen2 actively being tested in the labs, and according to AMD, it's looking really good. The first sampling of the new generation will happen very shortly, in fact in the second half of 2018 already meaning that 7nm is on track alright. The processors will launch in 2019.
On stage CEO Lisa Su holds a Zen2 Epyc processor in her hands.

Will it use DDR5 so at least I can be raped on new hardware release prices rather than on just "lulz pay us 3-4 times more because we control all the memory in the world".

AM4 is based on DDR4 so I highly doubt it. DDR5 won't be ready for mass production this early in 2019 also

I read somewhere that the 7nm cores were going to be 6 cores per CCX, instead of 4, so that would give 48/96 for EPYC2, iirc.
7nm Threadripper....64 cores? I think so.

Who are you responding to?
Anyway, functional 7nm processor of any variety is excellent news for the future, even more so in a company that is more likely to put out something that is reasonably priced and a significant step up in power from my current ageing rig. DDR5 would be hopeful for it, but not going to hold my breath on that front, particularly the recent RAM 'shortage' and price gouging, I feel companies will try and pull a similar move to Nvidia and AMD with their gpu's, and let the commercial success of the current tech run its course before pushing into new technologies.

Already? I guess I'll believe it when I see it.
