AMD intends to release new hybrid processor every two years, with discrete graphics of the previous generation will be gradually transferred to APU. Next year should appear some hybrid processors with graphics system new generation - obviously, we are talking about a family Pirate Islands. Accordingly, somewhere in the beginning of 2018 will be the next generation of hybrid processors.
Moreover, in a couple of years AMD expects to create specialized hybrid processors that combine graphics system with professional-grade cores server level. The scope of such processors will be the acceleration of computations.
It should be noted that the first processors for high-performance computing AMD will launch no earlier than 2017, if you believe the blurred illustrations from the event in Japan. By the way, colleagues from the site WCCFTech in Japanese revelations AMD somewhere saw mention of support for processor architectures in 2016 the possibility of simultaneous processing of multiple threads. Characteristically, if Intel processors per core suggest a virtual twin, in the case of AMD processors, each core can simultaneously handle more threads.
Well, this year there should be a unified platform SkyBridge, which will operate as a processor architecture ARM Cortex-A57, and x86-compatible processors with core Puma +. However, we can not assert that both processors types will be able to work in one processor socket . Most likely, these processors will become common in the segment of dense servers.
