AMD Next-Gen Zen 6 and Zen 6C CPU

The company has not yet revealed full details of Zen 5 and Zen 5C, but AMD has confirmed that development work is underway on the next-next-gen core architecture: Zen 6 and a denser version of these cores known as Zen 6C or now formally unveiled under the codename Morpheus. Zen 6 CPUs are expected to tap bleeding-edge manufacturing for advanced process technologies likely ascending from the 4nm and 3nm nodes used by Zen 5 and Zen C series processors, respectively.

Zen 6 and Zen 6C are expected to power future AMD product lines, including the upcoming EPYC “Venice” processors of Genoa that will be part of the SP7 platform with support for up to 16-channel memory configurations. This is the architecture that will lie at the center of next-generation Ryzen Desktop CPUs codenamed Medusa integrating newer RDNA GPU cores and a 2.5D interconnect for higher bandwidth. Furthermore, Sound Wave APU is also expected to use Zen 6. The next-gen Ryzen AI 300 has recently made headlines with the “Strix Point.”

AMD plans three Zen 6 configurations offering: an 8-core, a 16-core, and up to 32 cores. This set of core offerings will be located from the weakest to 16 / 32 cores in a single CCD, which is consistent with multi-threaded generation-based Ryzen CPUs (Threadripper and EPYC families). To the mainstream user, AMD might up core counts even further, with benefits in gaming and like applications limited largely by present software optimizations.

Moreover, AMD is currently in the process of developing its next-generation Zen 7 microarchitecture so future CPU designs are likely to continue iterating on this front. XDNA 3 for Client CPUs and Versal accelerators (now aimed at AI) will also be coming around in 2026. The debut of AMD’s Zen 6 architecture is expected by 2026, with ongoing support planned through AMD’s AM5 platform into 2027 and beyond, ensuring longevity and continued high-performance capabilities for desktop PCs.
