Extensive distributor leak reveals AMD and Intel Roadmaps - AMD Z490 and Intel Z390, 8-Core CFL

Extensive distributor leak reveals AMD and Intel Roadmaps - AMD Z490 and Intel Z390, 8-Core CFL

A colossal frack up from German-based Bluechip. They have had a 30-minute youtube Webinar presentation for its business partners where it shared NDA information on both Intel and AMD releases, these include time schedule releases for AMD Z490, Intel Z390 and 8-Core Coffee Lake in Q4.

The Youtube video since then has been taken offline, however, as with anything on the web, everything can be traced and Anandtech got hold of the screengrabs. Including the most important screengrabs of that presentation actually.It is quite amazing that this presentation video was even online to the public. Well hey, good stuff for us right?

We can be very short here, as the information shows everything we recently have been discussing, and that kind of confirms our expectations. The top of the slides confirms the recent Raven Ridge releases followed by the H370/B360 launches. But then things get interesting. AMD is indeed is planning Z490 platform, to be released in June say Computex time; the new chipset will add an extra 4 PCIe Gen 3.0 lanes for usage of another full speed M2 slot.

  

  

Other than that, it's the same as the current X470. A B450 chipset is also mentioned, expected in July. The AMD Zen+ Threadripper refresh is due for a release in August, there will be a refresh of X399 motherboards as well, but no new chipset.

 

  

When we move to Intel, the Z390 chipset makes its return. But that is not due for release anytime sooner than Q3 2018. Paired with the chipset is indeed the 8-core Coffee Lake processor. However, that one will arrive not anytime sooner than Q4 2018.

Super curious about Cascade Lake-X and how many more CPU pci-e lanes Intel are allowing for Coffee Lake, now that I've read AMD are adding more. Intel non-X platforms desperately need more CPU lanes, only 16 is just stupid, needs to be 24 at least or better yet 32. :confused:

Ryzen on AM4 has access to more lanes than they give for GFX, given how many one can get out of a threadripper CPU, at least 32 must be in there, just not exploited.

You need a new socket to export more CPU lanes, so on AM4 or 1151, this is really unrealistic to change, unless they planned for this to happen when designing the socket and it just got unused (and undiscovered) for all this time.

The only change I'm aware of is that AMD is finally switching their chipset connection to PCIe 3.0, which basically doubles the bandwidth available from/to the chipset, so thats something (also something they really should've done from the beginning, but thats another topic).

I do hope that the next generation of CPUs (with new sockets) actually do increase this to at least 20 from the CPU directly, so you can have GPU + SSD running on that, without having to tie the SSD to the chipset already.

I feel like its only a matter of time (and soon) that we see more CPU lanes made available, m.2 and graphics cards becoming more powerful is just going to force the change.

Interesting chipset update on that AMD Z490 = More pciE lanes.
