It would be probably worth to get CPUID data for EPYC and introduce Ryzen CPU model as well. Another question is whether we should named it "Zen" instead of EPYC since EPYC and Ryzen are CPU models like Intel Core or Xeon. For Intel we use the architecture name which is "Skylake" for example. In the past we used CPU model names for AMD, Opteron_G5 for example, but from consistency POW it should have been "Piledriver" and Opteron_G4 should have been "Bulldozer". Pavel
