AMD's next-gen Zen 6 APU codenamed 'Sound Wave' teased, made on TSMC 3nm node
AMD's next-gen APUs have received some more leaked details, where after Strix Point and Kraken Point APUs arrive, the company has its new Sound Wave APU made on TSMC's new 3nm process node featuring its next-gen Zen 6 architecture and RDNA 5 graphics. Oh boy.
The next-generation AMD Strix Point APUs will arrive as the Ryzen 8050 family processors, where AI is a bigger deal with its new XDNA 2 NPU (Neural Processing Unit), otherwise known as Ryzen AI, with a huge 3x improvement in AI compute performance of up to 48 TOPs.
AMD's new Strix Point APUs will feature the latest Zen 5 CPU architecture and upgraded RDNA 3.5 GPU cores, with two versions: Strix Point with a Zen 5 monolithic design featuring up to 12 CPU cores and then Strix Point Halo with a Zen 5 chiplet design with up to 16 cores. AMD is expected to launch Strix Point APUs later this year, replacing the Ryzen 8040 series "Hawk Point" APUs that launched not too long ago. $Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.US)$ $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$
