At this year's Computex press conference, AMD CEO Lisa Su was visibly more confident than in recent years. And for good reason, because what AMD has announced for the next 6 months makes AMD the clear leader in the workstation market for the first time in almost a decade.
After Intel surprisingly announced yesterday a 28 core processor for their own workstation/HEDT platform (news follows separately), it was already very probable: With the upcoming Threadripper version 2 AMD raises the maximum core number of its workstation CPU to an incredible 32 cores (and 64 threads). This monster processor will certainly not be cheap, but pin compatible to current TR4 boards. Intel, on the other hand, requires another new socket.
AMD says only very vaguely that the new Threadripper processors will be released in the second half of the year. Trade fair Augurians, on the other hand, want to know that the time has already come in late summer. More 
Background knowledge about workstation CPUs can be found here.
But AMD does not only accelerate in the CPU market. Thanks to two 7nm manufacturing options (TSMC and GoFlo), AMD is now in a comfortable position to produce the first GPU designs with particularly small structures. AMD has already demonstrated a first Vega Instinct graphics card with 32 GB HBM2 memory. However, this will only be intended for deep learning and workstation applications and will also have a corresponding price tag. We estimate that the 32 GB 7nm Vega Instinct will not be available for less than 5,000 Euros, as it competes directly with Nvidia's most expensive top models (GV100). With the 4096Bit HBM memory interface, which is mandatory for 32GB, it should act much faster in video applications than current Vega or NVidia GPUs. However, this already sheds light on where the GPU trip at AMD will go, even though a structurally new generation of consumer GPUs (navigation devices) is not expected until 2019.
