Yesterday we reported that AMD confirmed that they are developing a series of AMD ZEN 6 and ZEN 7 computer processing chips that will be launched starting next year. ZEN 6 will use the TSMC N2 chip production process, while AMD ZEN 7 is expected to arrive in 2027 or 2028 and be produced with the TSMC A16 process.
As for the graphics side, several reports say that AMD will continue to produce new graphics cards for gamers. For now, AMD has RDNA 4 graphics technology that has produced graphics cards such as the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT and AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT, two mid-range and affordable graphics cards.
This new series of graphics cards is said to focus on improving artificial intelligence performance and also Ray-Tracing functions, which will likely mean that AMD will once again compete with NVIDIA for the throne of powerful gaming graphics cards.
So far, no further details have been given, and it is not yet known whether it will be called RDNA 5 or a new technology name. The Radeon RX 9000 model could also be seen as the end of the Radeon RX series, but for now, that is just speculation.
Perhaps more importantly, two AMD gaming APUs were also confirmed during the Financial Analyst Day event, namely the Gorgon Point and Medusa Point APU chips.
The AMD Gorgon Point chip will launch next year, and while not much is known about its official specifications at this time, it is confirmed that it will be based on the same Strix Point chip with some improvements such as higher core speeds and cache.
The Medusa Point chip is expected to launch in 2027 or 2028 and will use the AMD ZEN 6 chip that will be introduced next year. Other details such as the number of cores, speed and graphics chip usage have not yet been confirmed.
