Not yet.

I mean, we can see from that pic that each chiplet has 16 cores and that each chiplet in Rome has 2 CPUs with 8 cores each, but we still don't know if each CPU still consists of 2 CCX with 4 cores each or just one CCX with the 8 cores.

There are 8 chiplets in that image surrounding the 14nm I/O chip.
8x8 = 64.
So it's 8, not 16. :P

I would think CCX is now at 8... Makes sense and allows for scaling on the mainstream platforms.

In any case, this design can work wonders for AMD, reusing the same chiplets for all its Zen2 products and only modifying the central I/O chip to suit the need of the rest of the products. Because desktop Ryzen won't need an 8-channel memory controller and other security extras.
