Pulsestacks reported on April 24th that ASUS and MSI recently released AGESA firmware updates for AMD 600 series motherboards, confirming support for the "next generation AMD Ryzen CPU." Furthermore, in a press release from Gigabyte, it was once again indicated that the next generation Ryzen desktop processors will be named "Ryzen 9000." ?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0424%2Ff6e1bc8fj00scfqhg002od000q000kwg.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg Previously, there were speculations that AMD's next-generation Ryzen processors would adopt a new naming scheme after upgrading to the Zen 5 architecture, but it appears that AMD will not make any adjustments in the near future.

AMD is expected to unveil the Zen 5 "Granite Ridge" Ryzen CPU at the Computex conference in June this year, with leaks suggesting the existence of 6/8 core versions. ?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdingyue.ws.126.net%2F2024%2F0424%2Ff459eb06j00scfqhg002dd000xc00hcg.jpg&thumbnail=660x2147483647&quality=80&type=jpg Source for pulsestacks annotation: videocardz

In terms of AMD's naming conventions, logically, Strix Point should be labeled as Ryzen 8050. However, rumors suggest that Fire Range and Strix Halo are set to be released next year. To maintain consistency, it seems more appropriate for all Zen5 products to follow the same naming scheme.
