Raven Ridge is the codename of AMD’s upcoming APUs, which are supposed to combine a “Zen” CCX unit and up to 12 “Vega” NGCUs, which together offer 768 stream processors. This information leaked due to OpenCL tables and they also “confirm” that all Raven Ridge APUs will feature Vega-based CUs.


Most likely the Raven Ridge parts are going to ship with up to 4 cores and 8 threads. Apart from that there should be 8MB of last level cache. As we’ve already mentioned there will be “Vega” based graphics on board with up to 12 NGCUs and therefore up to 768 stream processors. In the case of the memory controller the chips are supposed to host a dual-channel interface. In combination with the same southbridge that was already used on “Summit Ridge” two SATA 6Gbps ports and a bunch of USB 3.0 ports are integrated. Furthermore there is a PCI-Express x16 interface, which can drive two cards in x8/x8 configuration.

Apparently there is no information available as of today that is related to pricing or availability. Once more bits and pieces will make it through we’ll definitely keep you guys posted.
