That's, well at least an interesting find. In a leaked (and unconfirmed) road-map from AMD names of birds are used for future APUs. After the launch of the first 14nm based ZEN APU with code-name Raven Ridge, AMD is to launch AMD Horned Owl (it's a h00t!).



Then Banded Kestrel is to see the light as the smaller brother for embedded systems, Horned Owl however should reach the AM4 platform as well. For the enterprise market (servers) AMD is to release a Snowy Owl APU, again on 14nm and likely based on Naples. Then in 2019 you can expect Grey hawk, a 7nm processor based on Zen+ architecture.
