I hope it does. I also hope AMD allows them to be fused like they current do with two 128-bit AVX FPUs that can run one 256-bit AVX2. If they do this then they will have the lead in AVX512!

Intel's top of the line 18 core CPU only has 2 AVX512 units on it. Imagine a Zen 2 CPU with up to 8 AVX512 fused units!!! I know there is an extra cycle or two when doing a fused operation but still up to 8 AVX512 operations will be nice!
