According to Su, rumors circulating about a potential delay of Ryzen 4000 Vermeer chips until 2021 are exactly that—just rumors, completely unfounded. As previously planned, Zen 3-based processors will launch by the end of 2020.
Currently available information suggests the new Ryzen 4000 Vermeer processors will deliver an IPC increase of up to 20%, alongside higher clock speeds compared to existing Ryzen 3000 chips. These CPUs are expected to be manufactured using an improved 7-nanometer process.
