Fresh information has come to light regarding AMD's next-generation CPUs for both mobile and desktop platforms based on the Zen 5 architecture. This latest development pertains to details about the Strix Point APUs designed for laptops and the upcoming AMD 8000 series, which will be dubbed Granite Ridge. The latter is expected to have a TDP of either 105W or 170W.
A well-known leaker, momomo_us, recently shared screenshots of a shipping letter showcasing various CPU models. These documents seemingly confirm AMD's plans to launch several additional Granite Ridge variants later in the year. The leaked information references two specific models - a six-core CPU with a 105W TDP featuring A0 stepping, and an eight-core CPU with a 170W TDP featuring B0 stepping. These Granite Ridge CPUs are speculated to be the highly anticipated desktop processors based on the Zen 5 architecture that AMD is rumored to unveil at Computex. While it has been suggested that these CPUs will be manufactured using the 4nm process, specific details remain scarce.
Simultaneously, another leaker, harukaze5719, has also shared information on the upcoming Strix Point APUs designed for laptops. According to the leaked details, there will be at least two variants of these APUs - the Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 9 models, both featuring a 128W TDP. Recent leaks have indicated that these Strix Point APUs will incorporate a hybrid architecture, combining Zen 5 and Zen 5c cores, along with an integrated 'RDNA 3.5' GPU and an enhanced Ryzen AI engine. The manufacturing process for these APUs is said to be on an 'advanced node,' likely referring to TSMC's 3nm process.
Furthermore, the leaked documents also make mention of two potential high-end APU models named Fire Range, reported to have a TDP of 55W. These Fire Range APUs could include a Ryzen 7 model with eight cores and a Ryzen 9 model with sixteen cores, offering users a range of choices in terms of performance and power efficiency.
