AMD Ryzen 4000 Rumored to Bring 15% IPC Uplift
AMD's Zen 3 architecture will power the next generation Ryzen 4000 desktop chips and the 3rd Gen EPYC lineup which are both expected to launch later this year. Adored TV has received some leaked information detailing the technical specifications of the Zen 3 architecture. The majority of the leaked information confirmed existing rumors such as the 8 core CCX, higher clocks and lower power draw.
However the leak suggests IPC improvements will be less than the expected 20% hinted at by AMD and may end up being closer to 10 - 15%. The leak also claims that L3 cache will remain at 32 MB however it will no longer be split due to the single CCX. While this may be disappointing for some, remember to take the claims with a grain of salt as with any rumor.

And it doesn't also mean that the next jump will just double the core counts (making desktop CPU jump to 32C), personally I think Zen4 will still have 8C chiplet, total core count will stay the same, maybe the next jump will be with Zen5, and only a minor jump, like 10~12 cores per chiplet, and maybe AMD then will be able to afford having two CPU core chiplets with different core counts (like 8C and 12C) to serve different market needs.
16-core chiplet with Zen 4, I demand it.
I Believe AMD Won't commit the same mistake as intel did with their whole "lets keep on 14nm forever cause amd will never catch up"
Yeah 3rd gen Ryzen doesn't quite boost as well as people expected, but it looks like the 4900HS regularly boosts 100MHz above spec so that might be something they're on their way to fixing.
