AMD’s next-gen Ryzen processors primarily based totally at the Zen four structure may release concurrently along RDNA three-powered pics cards, however we’ll be ready a while for this to take place.

A clean rumor shared on Twitter – from leaker Broly_X1 – asserts that this simultaneous CPU and GPU release ought to arise on the quit of 2022 (withinside the very last quarter). That’s quite lots consistent with all of the current hypothesis we’ve heard approximately Zen four CPUs which holds that a later in 2022 launch appears the maximum possibly time-frame. That’s additionally what the reliable roadmaps have advised withinside the past, too…

As VideoCardz, which noticed this tweet, reminds us, Broly_X1 has a stable tune report of AMD leaking previously, spilling the information on quite lots the whole AMD keynote for Computex (and effectively highlighting the Radeon Pro GPU release earlier than it changed into revealed).

However, although Broly_X1 is at the cash with this agenda proper now, matters ought to nicely extrade at AMD, due to the fact we are, after all, speakme a time-frame of a 12 months and a half.

Stopgap solution

As we’ve referred to earlier than while discussing a probable Zen four (Ryzen 6000?) release on the near of 2022, that is an extended manner out for not anything else to take place on the grounds that AMD unleashed Ryzen 5000 (Zen three) processors at the world (past due final 12 months). Potentially leaving the door open for Intel to take returned a few critical turf withinside the CPU world (beginning with Alder Lake chips which may flip up in October).

The apparent stopgap solution – if the rumors approximately there being no Zen three+ refresh are proper, and we’ve nonetheless heard not anything approximately that possibility – could be for AMD to push out Ryzen 5000 XT fashions to pep matters up a bit. Indeed, those had been rumored to possibly be deliberate for later this 12 months. Broly_X1 seems to agree that some thing can be had to fill the gap, however that we won’t see an XT refresh of modern-day CPUs till early in 2022; now no longer this 12 months.

On the pics card front, not anything can be taking place till we get thru till Q4 2022, Broly_X1 reckons, so the modern-day RX 6000 variety will theoretically continue to be in area thru this 12 months and maximum of next. The leaker believes that AMD will tape out RDNA three GPUs (which means the layout can be finished) later in 2021.
