AMD Kaveri-Refresh Coming Summer 2015?

Kaveri "Godavari" is generally identical today and uses the same infrastructure, ie socket FM2 + and support for DDR3 memory at 2133 MHz. This includes four cores Steamroller and up to eight GCN cores, ie 512 stream processors. Again becomes instead retained TDP values with higher frequencies, anything that is said to bring in 10-15 percent higher performance against the current 7000 series.

Those chips will belong to a family called Summit Ridge, SweClockers says. They'll be fabbed on a 14-nm process, and they'll pack as many as eight cores inside thermal envelopes ranging up to 95W. The site also brings up a DDR4 memory controller, integrated PCI Express 3.0 lanes, and a new FM3 socket that will apparently succeed FM2+.
