They said when they released AM5 that they were going to keep supporting AM4. They weren't lying.

AM4 support has been legendary. Wouldn't surprise me to see a 5950X3D at some point. Maybe even Zen 3+ products.

IIRC Zen3+ exists already and only has DDR5 controllers.

Yeah Zen3+ exists through Rembrandt, though it's mobile only currently.

5950X3D

useless if it is only 1 chiplet, I dont think I want to deal with OS to decide which core I should use. 5950XD need to have 2 chiplet with 3d cache for scheduling simplicity.

How long after announcement do they usually take to release?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Article suggests Jan 31st launch (same time as when holiday returns expire) so it will probably be announced during CES

AMD keep releasing misleading series

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

They fixed the naming scheme with the 5000 series, then are gonna break it again with the 8000 series.

Not actually, if the CPU is released next year, it's supposed to start with 8. The first number is the release year.

Only a matter of time until we get some Ryzen GTX chips.
