Italian tech site Bits and Chips claims a previously reliable source revealed that on average, AMD's Zen 2 design has a 13 percent higher IPC versus the current Zen+ generation.

This figure refers to scientific tasks, at the moment there's no data about gaming performance.

The Zen 2 architecture will be released next year, it will power the Ryzen 3000 series. These chips will be made on a 7nm process.

Zen+ -> Zen2: +13% IPC (Average) in scientific tasks. Not bad.
P.S. No gaming data, atm.
