AMD recently released a series of exciting products - high-performance products based on the Zen 2 architecture and 7nm process. In the backstage message, Xiao A felt the recognition and expectation of many AMD fans for the new products, and a large number of "AMD YES" groups came~~ At the same time, many users also raised questions related to products or technologies. Xiao A will focus on selecting and answering them for everyone~


Today's Q&A: "What are the advantages of the Zen2 architecture compared to the previous generation architecture?"

In recent years, AMD's consumer-grade processor products have been upgraded all the way, from the first generation of Ryzen to the second generation of Ryzen, and then to the current third generation of Ryzen. The CPU architecture has also evolved from 14nm Zen to 12nm Zen+, and then to the current 7nm Zen 2 architecture. It has made continuous breakthroughs in both process and performance, implementing the "building great products" strategy proposed by AMD President and CEO Dr. Lisa Su.


One of the advantages of the Zen 2 architecture processor is its design. It uses the design concept of Chiplets to design the CPU and combines chips through modularization. This packaging method is different from the previous ones. In essence, it combines chip circuits with different processes and different architectures as needed. It is more sophisticated and more complex.


In the chip diagram on the right side of the above picture, the two cores on the top are 7nm process, and the I/O core on the bottom integrates I/O units such as memory controller and PCIe controller. This design makes the configuration very flexible, which can effectively increase the number of cores/threads and control costs. At the same time, in order to better realize the connection between cores, AMD has improved the Infinity Fabric bus, upgraded the bit width, and supported PCIe 4.0.


In addition, compared with the previous generation architecture, the "Zen 2" architecture has doubled the floating-point throughput and up to 15% cycle instruction improvement. It also provides twice the L3 cache and optimizes memory latency, which greatly improves the game frame rate and can provide players and creators with excellent single-threaded and multi-threaded performance.


In addition, it is worth mentioning the security of the CPU. AMD has been focusing on solving the security crisis brought by the Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities to the entire industry. The previous generation Zen architecture is already immune to multiple Spectre ghost, Meltdown and other variant vulnerabilities. The Zen2 architecture is further upgraded and is completely immune to Spectre-type bugs from the bottom up. It is reassuring in terms of security, vulnerability protection and other issues, which is very important for enterprise-level users.


In summary, the new architecture and new process will inevitably bring higher frequency and lower power consumption, which is why everyone is enthusiastic about the third-generation Ryzen processor~


Currently, the third-generation Ryzen processor family has released the following models:


In addition to the powerful Zen2 architecture, if you buy the third-generation AMD Ryzen processor, you also need to know the following Ryzen secrets:


The AMD X570 chipset on the AM4 platform supports powerful 3rd Gen Ryzen processors and is designed for gamers, creatives and performance enthusiasts, delivering exceptional performance, massive bandwidth and incredible speed.


The AMD AM4 platform has excellent compatibility and can easily handle cutting-edge and mainstream products. The 1331-pin processor design is compatible with multiple generations of AMD Ryzen desktop processors and supports the latest enthusiast-level technologies: PCIe 4.0, NVMe, SuperSpeed ​​USB 10Gbps, RAID, etc.


The third generation AMD Ryzen processor is the first processor to support PCIe 4.0. The standard bandwidth of PCIe 4.0 is twice that of PCIe 3.0, with a data transfer rate of up to 2GB per second for each serial line and up to 32GB per second for x16 channels. The increased bandwidth can break through performance bottlenecks and accelerate workflows, which means faster file storage and program loading. With the third generation AMD Ryzen processor and AMD X570 motherboard, you will feel the excellence and power of PCIe 4.0 technology.


In the AMD Ryzen Master software, a redesigned user interface and new overclocking* features tailored for enthusiasts allow users to easily squeeze the ultimate potential of their AMD Ryzen desktop processor-based computers.


Focus on performance, born to win. If you want to build your ultimate computer gaming platform, you must not miss the third-generation AMD Ryzen processor, come and buy it!
