Process technology

Zen 3 will be fabricated on TSMC's 7nm+ process.

Architecture

There is very limited information available about the architectural improvements of Zen 3.

Key changes from Zen 2

  • Unified 8-core CCX with 32 MiB L3$ available to all 8 cores equally
  • Wider and more flexible issue in floating-point and integer engines
  • Increased number of loads and stores, improved prefetching
  • Increased branch prediction bandwidth, "zero-bubble" branch prediction
  • Improved µop cache
  • [Unconfirmed] 7 nm+ process (from 7 nm), 20% more density and 10% power reduction compared to Zen 2. EUV (Extreme Ultraviolet) lithography 7nm+.

This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.
