AMD's Zen 4 is the next big revision of the company's Zen CPU micro-architecture and lately, information related to the upcoming platform has been spilling out fast. According to the latest rumor today, each next-gen EPYC server processor based on Zen 4 (codenamed 'Genoa') will pack up to 128 cores, which is double that of what AMD offers in its current EPYC 7003 lineup.

The image below shows the 64-core layout of an EPYC 7703 (Milan) processor:

The rumor isn't completely new as earlier there were reports of Zen 4 allegedly having more than 64 cores with new instructions like AVX-512, BFloat16, and more. These new instructions are helpful for high-performance computing (HPC) and server workloads so the alleged addition of them definitely makes sense.
