A new leak from Chiphell tells us what AMD has lined up for 2026. It got most of its 2025 offerings out of the door at CES 2025 (except RDNA 4), and now, we get a glimpse at some of the company’s longer-term plans. Howeverm, the roadmap is incomplete and doesn’t include mainstream laptop CPUs and Epyc server parts.
For starters, AMD’s Zen 6 Ryzen 11,000 (tentative) desktop CPUs will be unveiled. Its CPU tile will be manufactured on TSMC’s N3E node, while the I/O die will be on N4C. This lines up with AMD’s general strategy of being one step behind the bleeding edge.
As per a previous rumour, AMD plans to merge its RDNA and CDNA product lines into UDNA. This will be the backbone of every GPU and AI accelerator launched by AMD, and in 2026, the GPU, like its desktop counterpart, will be based on TSMC N3E. This time, there will be a high-end offering.
I didn’t know Sony was looking to launch a handheld device. Inclusion of 3D V-Cache in handhelds is an interesting trend. I wonder how reviewer will try and identify the performance uplift/impact?
