AMD has been very clear that they don't say anything about their semi-custom customers chip before the customer has disclosed it itself, custom or pure stock AMD design.

You just broke the first rule, you're out. Out of what you might ask? I have no idea. I can't talk about a club that I know nothing about. Nope, nope. Definitely don't know anything about any club. <whistles innocently>

Why not? An engineer has surely another perspective than the public perception of something which hasn't even been really specified yet. AFAIK There hasn't been any significant messaging by Sony about RT either in relation to the PS5. Their focus was on SSD/Fast loading as far as I know and compatibility.

I'm just saying Sony have been vocal about raytracing.
How can he deflate something he never work on. He is not rendering engineer but he was working on OS side of PS5. He probably only repeat what he was told by rendering engineer at Sony.
Do you know the PS5 OS isn't realtime raytraced? 
I didn't know that until I read it afterwards here.
So let's put this into the "twitter fluff people post and we better ignore" box.
Did you read the two wired interviews with mark cerny? It was very vocal about RT. Not sure what you're looking for.
Well, Cerny has confirmed hardware accelerated raytracing to the Wired journalist. He did that... vocally.
Do you know the PS5 OS isn't realtime raytraced?
I want ray traced music visualisations! =p
Wasn't that in relation to audio?
After the explanation of it being a true generational leap in graphics, and that it's the first time ever we can do RT on consoles, he added that it's not only about graphics, because tracing rays applies to a lot of algorithms, including audio.
I doubt the people he talked about in Sony headquarter doesn't know about what they were talking. The question are precise like about transparency which is something with performance problem on raytracing and DXR and about a VRS tier 2 functionality. I don't think he invented this things in his head, too precise and probably from someone who told him some very precise things concerning raytracing performance and limitation and VRS.

That is a picture not an official statement, hell it's not even got an AMD logo or anything indicating it came from an official slide deck.
I'll continue to consider the 8 core CCX a rumor until you or anyone can provide solid evidence.
As far as i know, AMD haven't made any official statements regarding zen3 other than to say it's under development, what process node it will be on,
and when we are likely to expect it.
The slide is from an AMD presentation:

Btw, does the shared cache automatically mean 8-core CCX or are the other factors that make up the cluster?
