AMD’s Ryzen 7000 series processors, codenamed Raphael, have just started selling, and other products with the same Zen 4 architecture are also in the pipeline. These include Genoa for servers, Dragon Range for mobile platforms, Storm Peak for HEDT/workstations, and more.
According to TomsHardware reports, a Ryzen Threadripper 7000 series processor equipped with 64 Zen 4 architecture cores has recently appeared on a distributed computing platform. Its OPN code is 100-000000454-20_Y, which belongs to Family 25 Model 24 Stepping 1. It can basically be confirmed that the Zen 4 architecture is adopted.
Testing on a distributed computing platform can better take advantage of the high core count of the Ryzen Threadripper 7000 series processors. Since the EPYC processor code-named Genoa can be configured with up to 96 cores, this Ryzen Threadripper 7000 series processor is not necessarily the highest specification product in the same series.
Originally AMD’s Ryzen Threadripper series was entirely geared towards the consumer market, while the Ryzen Threadripper Pro series is mainly for workstations with more memory channels.AMD has previously said that the two will be integrated in the future, offering only the Ryzen Threadripper Pro lineup. AMD’s current Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5000-series processors for workstations came much later than expected, not released until March of this year.
AMD appears to be picking up the pace on the new generation of Ryzen Threadripper 7000 series processors, scheduled for release in the first half of 2023. In addition to the Ryzen Threadripper 7000 series processors, AMD has recently been testing APUs codenamed Phoenix Point, the next generation of chips for mainstream laptops and desktops, also based on the core of the Zen 4 architecture.
