Being one of the leading companies in the processing sector, AMD has always presented a large number of CPU models that seek to compete in all aspects with those of its rival, whether in terms of power, price or other factors that can be taken into account. As the launch of its new generation gets closer and closer, many operating systems are preparing for it, and Linux allows us to see that it is possible that AMD launch 64 processor models.
Due to several leaks, over the past few months we have been able to see more and more features on the Zen5 of AMD, and one of the news that we currently have is the fact that the company could have prepared many models of processors of the new generation, although it is possible that we will not see them all. However, this implies that the launch of these CPUs is getting closer, since the leak comes directly from a Linux update that prepares the operating system for these new processors.
AMD could present a large number of Zen 5 models
The company that created Ryzen begins to lay the groundwork for the arrival of the next generation of its processors based on the architecture Zen5and the latest news we know about these processors is that urgent fixes are currently being implemented in the Linux kernel that cover four digital ranges of the new generation of processors. AMD.
These numerical ranges can be directly linked to the type of processor in question, which implies that each of the numbers included in said ranges could represent each of the processors which AMD plans to present. These ranges are 0 to 15, 32 to 47, 64 to 79, and 112 to 127, which would leave us, if each number were tied to a processor, which AMD It could present up to sixteen processors in each of the CPU ranges, Strix Point for mobile phones or Granite Ridge for desktop computers would be some examples of these ranges.
Obviously, we may not consider all models as market launches, taking into account that there may be versions that are only CPU versions used only for development, others that may be linked to pre-releases, etc.
AMD’s Zen 5 processors arrive with big improvements
As we know well, architecture Zen5 seeks to offer performance and power capable of surpassing any other processor, being one of the premises of AMD, the quest to further improve CPU performance in intensive tasks. Although the new leaks that we have seen from the Linux kernel update do not indicate anything regarding the performance of these new processors, we can see how the company that created the Ryzen has sought to create a range of processors for each of them the uses that we can give to it.
Among other things, as we well know AMD has devoted a lot of resources to improving its AI-related capabilities, so we can expect significant improvements in AI performance from its XDNA 2 technology. Meanwhile, the company continues to dominate the integrated graphics market, since thanks to RDNA 3+. that the new processors will integrate, there will be times when it will not be necessary to use a graphics card to perform certain functions.
