AMD Computex 2026: 10 Years of AM4, AM5 Support Through 2029 and Expanded RDNA 4 Gaming

Five Things to Know from AMD 

  • AMD cele­bra­tes 10 years of the AMD Socket AM4 plat­form with the AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D 10th Anni­ver­sa­ry Edi­ti­on processor.
  • AMD extends sup­port for the AMD Socket AM5 plat­form through 2029, rein­for­cing a long-term com­mit­ment to upgradea­bi­li­ty and invest­ment protection.
  • AMD intro­du­ces the AMD Ryzen™ 7 7700X3D pro­ces­sor for AM5 based platforms.
  • AMD EXPO™ Tech­no­lo­gy fea­turing Ultra Low Laten­cy enables cer­ti­fied memo­ry kits to deli­ver impro­ved per­for­mance on AMD Ryzen™ platforms.
  • AMD laun­ches the AMD Rade­on™ RX 9070 GRE gra­phics card glo­bal­ly, exten­ding AMD RDNA™ 4 gam­ing per­for­mance and value to more play­ers worldwide.

At Com­putex 2026, AMD is rein­for­cing its com­mit­ment to high-per­for­mance gam­ing expe­ri­en­ces through con­tin­ued plat­form inno­va­ti­on, long-term upgrada­bili­ty and expan­ded access to enthu­si­ast-class technologies. 

Cele­bra­ting a deca­de of the AMD Socket AM4 plat­form, we are announ­cing the AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D 10th Anni­ver­sa­ry Edi­ti­on pro­ces­sor, along­side the new AMD Ryzen™ 7 7700X3D pro­ces­sor for the Socket AM5 plat­form. We also con­firm­ed exten­ded sup­port for Socket AM5 through 2029, giving gamers and PC buil­ders a lon­ger run­way for future upgrades.

PC gamers now have more ways to build around AMD tech­no­lo­gies, whe­ther they are exten­ding the life of an exis­ting sys­tem, widening their gam­ing opti­ons on AM5 or pai­ring a new pro­ces­sor with Rade­on gra­phics for high-per­for­mance 1440p gaming.

We’re com­mit­ted to giving gamers high-per­for­mance tech­no­lo­gies with the fle­xi­bi­li­ty to upgrade their sys­tems over time. Ulti­m­ate­ly, our goal is to deli­ver unmat­ched owner­ship expe­ri­en­ces for play­ers around the world,” said David McA­fee, cor­po­ra­te vice pre­si­dent and gene­ral mana­ger, Cli­ent Chan­nel and Gra­phics Busi­ness, AMD.

Cele­bra­ting 10 Years of Socket AM4 with the Ryzen 7 5800X3D 10th Anni­ver­sa­ry Edition

For a deca­de, AMD Socket AM4 has ser­ved as the trus­ted foun­da­ti­on for PC gamers, making it one of the most endu­ring enthu­si­ast desk­top plat­forms in gam­ing histo­ry. Across mul­ti­ple gene­ra­ti­ons of AMD “Zen” archi­tec­tu­re inno­va­tions, chip­let designs and AMD 3D V‑Cache™ tech­no­lo­gy, AM4 enab­led gamers to upgrade over time wit­hout rebuil­ding their sys­tems from scratch.

To cele­bra­te the platform’s 10th anni­ver­sa­ry, we crea­ted a spe­cial edi­ti­on of the ico­nic Ryzen 7 5800X3D pro­ces­sor for Com­putex, the first Ryzen CPU to fea­ture AMD 3D V‑Cache Tech­no­lo­gy. The anni­ver­sa­ry edi­ti­on is bund­led with Car­bice® Ice Pad™, a next-gene­ra­ti­on ther­mal inter­face mate­ri­al desi­gned to sim­pli­fy instal­la­ti­on and deli­ver long-las­ting ther­mal performance.

The Ryzen 7 5800X3D 10th Anni­ver­sa­ry Edi­ti­on will be available begin­ning June 25, with a sug­gested etail pri­ce of US $349 at launch.

 

Expan­ding AMD 3D V‑Cache Gam­ing Per­for­mance with Ryzen 7 7700X3D

Addi­tio­nal­ly, we are announ­cing the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X3D pro­ces­sor, brin­ging AMD 3D V‑Cache tech­no­lo­gy-based per­for­mance to more gamers on the AM5 platform.

Fea­turing eight cores, 104MB of total cache and boost speeds of up to 4.5GHz1, the new pro­ces­sor deli­vers respon­si­ve and high-per­for­mance experiences.

The Ryzen 7 7700X3D pro­ces­sor gives gamers a powerful ent­ry point into the AM5 plat­form, brin­ging AMD 3D V‑Cache gam­ing per­for­mance to more play­ers at acces­si­ble pri­ces, with the fle­xi­bi­li­ty to upgrade for years to come.

The Ryzen 7 7700X3D will be available July 16, with a sug­gested etail pri­ce of US $329 at launch.

 

Long-Term Plat­form Com­mit­ment to AMD Socket AM5

With the launch of the Ryzen 7 7700X3D pro­ces­sor, we are exten­ding sup­port for the Socket AM5 plat­form through 2029.

Sin­ce laun­ching with AMD “Zen 4,” AM5 has deli­ver­ed one of the industry’s lon­gest-stan­ding com­mit­ments to socket lon­ge­vi­ty and upgrade fle­xi­bi­li­ty. For gamers, the sup­port exten­si­on repres­ents more time to build, upgrade and impro­ve a sys­tem around the same plat­form. A lon­ger plat­form road­map can redu­ce the need for full sys­tem repla­ce­ments and gives PC buil­ders more con­fi­dence when choo­sing AMD Ryzen pro­ces­sors, AM5 mother­boards and com­pa­ti­ble memory.

Our dedi­ca­ti­on to Socket AM5 reflects the same long-term com­mit­ment we made to Socket AM4. For near­ly a deca­de, AMD sup­port­ed the Socket AM4 plat­form as users con­tin­ued to upgrade their sys­tems across mul­ti­ple pro­ces­sor generations.

 

Rade­on RX 9070 GRE Brings RDNA 4 Gam­ing to More Players

We are also intro­du­cing the AMD Rade­on™ RX 9070 GRE gra­phics card glo­bal­ly, exten­ding AMD RDNA™ 4 archi­tec­tu­re, advan­ced ray tra­cing capa­bi­li­ties and AI-enhan­ced expe­ri­en­ces more gamers.

Deli­ve­ring an avera­ge of 21% fas­ter 1440p gam­ing per­for­mance than the competition,2 Rade­on RX 9070 GRE fea­tures 48 AMD RDNA 4 com­pu­te units, 12GB of memo­ry and clock speed up to 2.79GHz.1 Gamers can take per­for­mance even fur­ther with the latest AMD FSR Gam­ing Tech­no­lo­gies, now available in more than 300 titles.

The Rade­on RX 9070 GRE GPU will be available glo­bal­ly from AMD board part­ners in refe­rence and over­clo­cked con­fi­gu­ra­ti­ons start­ing June 2, with a sug­gested etail pri­ce of US $549 at launch.

 

AMD Advan­ces Gam­ing Plat­form Inno­va­ti­on with AMD EXPO ULL

AMD EXPO™ Tech­no­lo­gy con­ti­nues to help make memo­ry over­clo­cking easier and more acces­si­ble for gamers.3

With AMD EXPO Tech­no­lo­gy: Fea­turing Ultra Low Laten­cy, gamers can enjoy an addi­tio­nal 4% avera­ge increase in FPS (frames per second) per­for­mance ver­sus non-ULL AMD EXPO tech­no­lo­gy memory.4 The­se new memo­ry kits will be available from cer­ti­fied memo­ry part­ners start­ing June 2026.
