Pinnacle Ridge a la vuelta de la esquinaY AMD confirma; otra vez; la salida de la segunda generacion de RyZEN, o para no causar confusion, una mejora al actual RyZEN con un proceso de fabricacion mas pulido a 12nm que permitira mayores frecuencias de trabajo y uso de memoria mas rapida, mejor relacion de rendimiento/watt y un mejorado IMC; controlador de memoria integrado; asi ya se tendria mas estable el manejo de la memoria.
Para Matisse, que seria el RyZEn con el nucleo ZEN-2 falta aun mucho tiempo. Pero Pinacvle Ridge promete mejorar lo mejorable y corregir los detalles que quedaron sin pulir del actual RyZEN.

AMD’s next generation Ryzen 2 CPUs are set to debut on 12nm process technology in the first quarter of 2018. The new lineup comprised of 2000 series Ryzen 7, Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 3 2000 microprocessors is said to bring higher clock speeds and better overclockability to the table in addition to support for faster DDR4 RAM.
AMD Ryzen 2 Pinnacle Ridge Coming Late February, Early March Next Year – To Support New 400 Series Chipset
The company is said to be planning the roll out of Ryzen 2000 Pinnacle Ridge starting with Ryzen 7 in late February, followed by Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 3 in March. The new chips will be manufactured using Globalfoundries’ 12LP “Leading Performance” process node and will feature AMD’s improved Zen+ CPU microarchitecture.
These parts will go against Intel’s upcoming 9000 series, which our sources tell us to expect around June’ish next year. Intel’s 9000 series will bring 8 cores to the mainstream for the very first time and will certainly offer stiffer competition to Ryzen than Coffee Lake has, which has been subject to significant shortages that have dragged out for months.
Very little is known about the microarchitectural side of these new Zen+ parts, although the transition to 12nm will enable higher clock speeds and better power efficiency. Based on the claims touted by Globalfoundries for its 12LP node, we could see Ryzen frequencies pushed to anywhere between 4.2-4.4GHz on the high-end, with a couple to several hundred MHz improvements across the lineup.
The new processors are also said to support higher DDR4 memory frequencies, at least thats what some folks have been whispering into our ears. This is likely due to the performance and power improvements that 12LP brings to the table. Low power and mobile variants of Pinnacle Ridge processors are expected to debut around April and 2nd generation Ryzen Pro parts are set to come out in May.
