AMD Ryzen 8000 “Granite Ridge” Series to Feature Between 6 to 16 Cores

AMD Ryzen 8000, which is codenamed “Granite Ridge”, will feature updated Zen5 core architecture. Its core clusters combined with new Core Complex Dies (CCD) are called “Eldora.” The processors will offer 6 to 16 cores codenamed “Nirvana.” However, not much information is available about the upcoming AMD series.

According to a rumor, AMD is planning to release a 6-core SKU, so the Ryzen 7000 and 8000 series will be pretty similar. However, there are no confirmed launch dates for the Ryzen 8000 series. It might be released in the second half of 2024, but AMD has not commented on this yet.

Here’s everything we know about the Ryzen 8000:

  • Zen 5 CCDs (“Eldora”)
  • Zen 5 CPU Cores (“Nirvana”)
  • 6 to 16 Zen 5 processor cores
  • 65W-170W of power dissipation (“TDP”)
  • Up to 64 MiByte L3 cache and 16 MiByte L2 cache

The AMD 2022-2025 product roadmap featuring Zen5/Zen5c server products was recently leaked. The term ‘series’ suggests that the Granite Ridge mentioned refers to embedded solutions and not the Ryzen 8000.

According to the slide, AMD Ryzen 8000 could enter production between Q1 2024 and Q1 2025. However, this could also refer to the non-gaming platform which arrives almost a year after the initial release.

Apart from small snippets, there is no notable mention of the Ryzen 8000X3D series. AMD has confirmed that the Zen5 microarchitecture with 3D V-Cache is in the works. However, its end result is undetermined.

It is highly possible that the Zen5 might be released depending on the availability of 4nm and 3nm process nodes. Hopefully, AMD roadmaps will further clarify any confusion about release windows.
