Zen 4 is a planned microarchitecture being developed by AMD as a successor to Zen 3.

History

Zen 4 on the roadmap.

Zen 4 was first mentioned by Forrest Norrod during AMD's EPYC One Year Anniversary webinar. During the next horizon event which was held on November 6, 2018, AMD stated that Zen 4 was at the design completion phase.

Process Technology

AMD claims that Zen4 is going to be produced on a 5nm node by TSMC.

Key changes from Zen 3

This section is empty; you can help add the missing info by editing this page.

raised core/thread count from 64/128 to at least 96/192 (vastly due to 5nm process allowing more space, therefore more cores).

improved cache load, write and prefetch from/to register (less latency).

improved iGPUs for APU variants; navi integrated gpu with up to 3.4 TFLOPs FP32 (clock frequency unknown, at least 2 GHz).

utilizes new AM5 socket and is expected to support DDR5 and possibly PCIe 5.

more transistors (depending on AM5 socket as well and not just the CPU it self).
