AMD Zen 3 Could Bid the CCX Farewell, Feature Updated SMT (Proactive)edit
With its next-generation “Zen 3” CPU microarchitecture designed for the 7 nm EUV silicon fabrication process, AMD could bid the “Zen” compute complex or CCX farewell, heralding chiplets with monolithic last-level caches (L3 caches) that are shared across all cores on the chiplet. AMD embraced a quad-core compute complex approach to building multi-core processors with “Zen.” At the time, the 8-core “Zeppelin” die featured two CCX with four cores, each. With “Zen 2,” AMD reduced the CPU chiplet to only containing CPU cores, L3 cache, and an Infinity Fabric interface, talking to an I/O controller die elsewhere on the processor package.
