AMD CEO Dr Lisa Su talks about Zen+ processor development

At the at the Credit Suisse 19th Annual Technology, Media & Telecom Conference earlier this month AMD CEO Dr Lisa Su confirmed that the company is working on several generations to succeed Zen. A high-end Zen+ processor is said to be in the works, aimed at datacentre applications, but it will be a three to five year effort to see it released.

AMD's Zen processors are expected to become available next year. It difficult to know when the first new architecture processors will arrive; we have seen notice that AM4 motherboards supporting Zen could be launched in March but AMD will also be launching compatible seventh generation A-Series Desktop APUs to make use of these motherboards. Previously all signs pointed to a Q4 2016 launch/release for Zen processors.

"I think Zen is the first of a multi-year strategy so you know again you ask me what are my thoughts around the company I think AMD at our core we are a high performance computing company and so you know Zen is a from scratch architectural design, for those of us who do those you know it takes a lot of work. It’s a multi-year effort but I think it’s a multi-year effort that we can see coming to fruition. And so what datacenter customers want from us is one we want you to be competitive and two we want a long term roadmap. And so we’ve really talked about Zen+, Zen follow ons, as you know a three to five year view of what’s needed to be successful in the datacenter."

Zen+. Now is high end, 3-4 years later it will become low end. And they cannot release and they will have to work on another new one. lol

Why do I not trust her? At times I wonder if the little money AMD have, would be better spent on actual R&D rather then sales pitchers.

Desktop doesn't earn. Xeons and Opterons do. How else do you think Intel earns money? Xeons fund Intel's research, not desktop SKUs.
