AMD to release 3rd Gen Threadripper processors this year already
There's no slowing down AMD isn't there? AMD will release their third generation Threadripper processors this year already. A presentation slide from an investors briefing confirms that info to become a true fact. Obviously, there are no details about the CPUs series just yet.
The slide that shows AMD mentioning third Threadripper was spotted by Tom's Hardware. We all know Ryzen 3000 is due out for a release this year, 7nm, chiplet design and likely high clock frequencies on ZEN2 that go along with it. Ryzen series 3000 procs are expected to be released halfway this year.
Threadripper CPUs originally have been released just two years ago, and shook up and reshaped the market for Intel alright, that was Summer 2017 folks. The 2nd gen based in 12nm fabrication was released exactly a year later so we expect AMD to follow that timeframe, August 2019? The roadmap does mention it is subject to changes.

.
- a decent clockspeed increase to around 4GHz base and 4.5GHz boost (sorry I don't believe the rumours about 5GHz)
Not sure what is hard to believe about it. It's only logical for it to be expected to be near 5ghz. Otherwise you're saying that a fairly major node change and architecture change has about the same increase as the minor architecture change and minor node change from Zen to Zen+, and that's not logical.
Obviously only time will tell but i prefer to base expectations on logical progression.

It actually wasn't a fine paid to a government--100% of the money went straight to AMD as a part of the settlement it enacted with Intel to end the AMD anti-trust lawsuit against Intel. More importantly, also as a part of the settlement, Intel has agreed in writing to never again pull the stunt of paying OEMs (like Dell) to not sell AMD CPUs. It always bears repeating what a powerful competitor AMD is--Intel used every nasty trick in the book to add AMD to the long line of x86 wannabe cpu manufacturers who are now extinct, from pre-Athlon on up. Even though threatened by Intel with parts shortages and higher prices, the third-party motherboard vendors were resolute in supporting AMD's Athlon platform regardless, way back in 1999. They took a dim view of Intel's attempts to strong-arm them. These days Intel will have to compete on solely technical grounds as opposed to just throwing money around, as in the old days, plus AMD's top management is composed of technical people, not the pencil pushers who have taken over Intel by all appearances.
