AMD's 3rd generation EPYC line of enterprise processors that leverage the "Zen 3" microarchitecture, could innovate in two directions - towards increasing performance by doing away with the CCX (compute complex) multi-core topology; and taking advantage of a newer/refined 7 nm-class node to increase clock-speeds. Igor's Lab decoded as many as three OPNs of the upcoming 3rd gen EPYC series, including a 64-core/128-thread part that ships with frequency of
