At the end of March, information about processors came to light AMD Granite Ridge. All thanks to published transport documents. And we're talking about architecture-based systems AMD Zen5which will still be supported by motherboards equipped with sockets AMD AM5.
For now, we are only talking about flagship models
Although the exact list of models, their specifications and release date remain unknown, many people point to a possible presentation at the beginning of June during the fair. Computex 2024. And it seems that this is quite possible because one of the motherboard manufacturers already supports new processors.
