At Computex 2026, AMD announced the 'Ryzen 7 5800X3D 10th Anniversary Edition' to celebrate a decade of Socket AM4, alongside a new Socket AM5-based CPU, the 'Ryzen 7 7700X3D.' Additionally, the company confirmed the global launch of the 'Radeon RX 9070 GRE' graphics card, aimed at QHD gaming, and officially extended support for the Socket AM5 platform through 2029.

Celebrating 10 Years of AM4: Launch of the 'Ryzen 7 5800X3D Anniversary Edition'

AMD is re-releasing the Socket AM4-based 'Ryzen 7 5800X3D 10th Anniversary Edition,' allowing users to upgrade existing systems without replacing their motherboard or memory. This model commemorates the 10th anniversary of the AM4 platform, which has spanned five generations of architecture and an ecosystem of over 500 motherboards.

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D was beloved for its excellent price-to-performance ratio in gaming, and since its discontinuation in 2024, many gamers have clamored for its return. Its arrival is particularly welcome, as many view it as the perfect time for a commemorative release, given the 10th anniversary of the AM4 platform and the renewed interest in DDR4 due to the sharp rise in DDR5 memory prices.

- Specifications and Configuration: It features 8 cores and 16 threads with a maximum CPU boost clock of 4.5GHz. Equipped with 3D V-Cache technology, it has a total cache of 100MB (including L2 and L3) and a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 105W. Each purchase includes a 'Carbice Ice Pad' to assist with long-term thermal management.

- Performance Metrics: According to AMD's internal testing, the average gaming FPS is 16% higher than the original Ryzen 7 5800X and up to 115% higher than the older Ryzen 7 2700X. Compared to the Intel Core i9-14900K, it recorded higher frame rates in the latest games (up to 126% in Cyberpunk 2077).

- Release Date and Price: It will be released on June 25, 2026, with a recommended retail price of $349.

New CPU for AM5 Gamers: 'Ryzen 7 7700X3D' Unveiled

AMD has unveiled the 'Ryzen 7 7700X3D' processor, offering a more accessible way to experience the Socket AM5 platform and 3D V-Cache technology.

- Specifications and Configuration: Based on the Zen 4 CPU core, it features 8 cores and 16 threads with a maximum boost clock of 4.5GHz. It has a total cache of 104MB and a TDP of 120W.

- Release Date and Price: Scheduled for release on July 16, 2026, with a recommended retail price of $329.

Radeon Graphics Card for QHD Gamers: 'Radeon RX 9070 GRE' Global Launch

The 'Radeon RX 9070 GRE' graphics card, previously available only in select regions, is now launching globally. Designed with the latest AMD RDNA 4 architecture, it is focused on delivering smooth AAA gaming performance, including ray tracing, at QHD resolution.

- Key Specifications: It features 48 Compute Units (CU), 48 third-generation ray tracing accelerators, and 96 second-generation AI accelerators. It has a maximum boost clock of 2.79GHz, 12GB of video memory (VRAM), and a Total Board Power (TBP) of 220W. It uses a standard 8-pin connector to ensure compatibility with existing power supplies.

- Performance and Technology: Compared to the competing GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, it reportedly delivers 22% faster performance across 40+ games and 26% better performance per dollar. It also fully supports AMD FSR 4.1, an AI-based frame interpolation technology, which will be expanded to previous-generation RDNA 3 architecture (RX 7k series) GPUs starting in July.

- Release Date and Price: Available at retailers worldwide starting June 1, 2026, with a recommended retail price of $549.

Raising the Floor: 'EXPO Ultra Low Latency' Technology to Prevent Frame Drops

AMD is introducing 'AMD EXPO Ultra Low Latency (ULL)' memory technology, which reduces memory latency to minimize in-game stuttering. An evolution of the existing EXPO overclocking technology, it is expected to improve frame stability during high-performance gaming for a smoother experience.

- Performance Improvements: On a Ryzen 7 9700X processor, average FPS is improved by 13% compared to standard JEDEC memory without overclocking, and the 1% low minimum frame rate—a measure of stuttering—is increased by 15%, providing a smoother visual experience. Compared to standard EXPO memory, it offers an additional 4% frame rate improvement.

- Release Schedule: Expected to be available starting June 2026 through major certified memory partners including G.SKILL, KINGSTON, TEAMGROUP, and XPG.

Socket AM5 Platform Commitment Extended to 2029

To maintain a sustainable long-term socket strategy, AMD has officially declared that support for the Socket AM5 platform will be extended through 2029. This ensures that gamers can perform stable, drop-in upgrades without needing to change their motherboards, even as new products and next-generation architectures are released.
