AMD’s future AM5 plans reportedly include Ryzen 9000G “Gorgon Point” and EPYC 4005 “Grado”

Leakers digging through official AMD repositories and related databases have found new details about Team Red’s future processor roadmap. Based on their posts, they’ve discovered entries about upcoming desktop, mobile, and workstation product lines, offering a glimpse into products beyond what has been officially announced.

Among the Olrak29 and InstLatX64’s findings (via VideoCardz) are more mentions of Zen 5-based products that we have heard about previously. This includes the purported Ryzen Threadripper ‘Shimada Peak’ 9000WX family for workstations, which should be announced soon, potentially during Computex 2025 in early June. For the desktop space, the Ryzen 9000G ‘Gorgon Point’ APU series, combining Zen 5 cores with RDNA 3.5 integrated graphics, has also reappeared in these databases, seemingly confirmed for the AM5 desktop socket.

The leaks extend into the mobile space and beyond. Entries related to Ryzen AI Mobile SoCs on an FP8 socket were found, with one of them suggesting ‘Gorgon Point’ would succeed ‘Strix Point’ mobile APUs, contradicting the previous reports and rumours. Additionally, a ‘Krackan2′ appears to be a refresh of the current ‘Krackan Point’ APUs.

Another rumoured AM5-bound lineup discovered is the EPYC 4005 ‘Grado’ series, which some believe could be built on existing designs but adapted for entry-level commercial/enterprise use, potentially succeeding processors like the EPYC 4004. Perhaps most intriguingly, an FF5-based ‘Soundwave’ processor design has surfaced alongside these future mobile chipsets, fuelling industry rumours that AMD might be exploring or planning to use Arm architecture at a lower product tier.

KitGuru says: Of all AMD’s upcoming products, which one are you the most curious about?
