AMD's Zen 5 CPUs will debut sometime in the second half of 2024 and they may well bring with them the biggest performance boost in generations.
AMD Zen 5 is the next-generation Ryzen CPU architecture for Team Red and is slated for a launch sometime in 2024. We’ve been hearing tantalizing rumors for a while now and promises of big leaps in performance. In short, Zen 5 could be very exciting indeed.
Related Recently, motherboard vendors began adding support for Zen 5 CPUs, suggesting an imminent launch. Reported leaks point to a maximum of 16 cores on the Zen 5 generation, mirroring what’s currently available for Zen 4. There are also rumors of limited or non-existent clock speed improvements, which isn’t unheard of in a new-generational architecture, but it is less common.
Zen 5 will reportedly be built on TSMC’s 3nm process, perhaps with an older process for the I/O die, as it did with Zen 4. AMD is looking to replicate this with its AM5 socket, which debuted with Ryzen 7000 CPUs in the fall of 2022. Zen 5 will use the same AM5 socket as Zen 4, meaning not only will coolers be compatible, but CPUs will be too. Anyone with an existing X670E, X670, or B650 motherboard should be able to drop in a Zen 5 CPU and receive most of the benefits of the new generation as soon as they are available — though a BIOS update may be necessary.
Still, if the CPUs do indeed enjoy higher cache quantities, a new cache design, and up to 30% boost in IPC, Zen 5 CPUs could be very, very fast — easily outstripping both AMD’s existing CPUs and anything Intel launches by the time. Maybe even Arrow Lake.
