So this is a combined leak from Igor and Videocardz. Igor recently posted a bunch of details about AMD's upcoming Ryzen 4000 series for desktop - Vermeer - and WhyCry supplemented the leak with his own information.  Unlike Renoir which is built for the mobility platform and based on Zen 2, AMD Vermeer is the true successor to the Ryzen 3000 series out on desktop today. This leak also confirms the existence of a mammoth 16-core based on Zen 3 built for the mainstream desktop market. > We have already heard some extremely tantalizing things about Vermeer including a huge IPC gain and the iterative performance far outpacing Intel's 14nm on both compute and gaming sides. Vermeer will be manufactured on TSMC's 7nm process (likely EUV) and will be a big step up from current generation Zen 2 processors. It looks like nothing can stop AMD's rise to dominance in the x86 market.
