AMD Discloses RDNA 2 Graphics, CDNA Data Center GPUs, Next-Gen Zen

“At its Financial Analyst Day, AMD disclosed additional details regarding its next generation CPU and GPU architectures,” writes Slashdot reader MojoKid:
– While the company isn’t ready to disclose concrete details yet, AMD is promising that Navi 2X will arrive this year and deliver “enthusiast-class” performance, excellent power efficiency, and “top-of-stack” GPUs with “uncompromising 4K gaming”.

– While AMD has RDNA for its gaming-centric consumer GPUs, the company is shifting to a new GPU compute architecture, dubbed CDNA, for its High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Machine Learning (ML) accelerators. CDNA has been designed from the ground-up for ML/HPC applications, and will leverage what AMD calls its second-generation Infinity Architecture interconnects.

– AMD also reiterated that its first Zen 3-based products will be rolling out later this year. On the server side, this means EPYC 7003 “Milan” processors, but the company also revealed that Zen 3 client processors would also arrive by the end of 2020.
