Next generation Ryzen Zen 6 CPUS for Desktop can come with up to 24 nuclei

The next generation of AMD Ryzen processors for Desktop, based on Zen 6 architecture, can deliver components with up to 24 core and 96MB of cache. The information is still on the basis of rumors and leaks, so they must be understood as such. Who talked about it was the famous “Leak” Zhanzhonghao, on Chiphell, as well as the people of Moore’s Law is Dead (Mlid), who have a fickle host history.

Gathering the information that appears in the forum and the channel, Tom’s hardware understands that AMD can change its chiple design (CCDs) in Zen 6 generation. The company would pass from a Zen 5 + 4 Zen 5C configuration to a 12 -core structure, enabling the creation of components up to 24 in total.

In addition, according to rumors, the company does not intend to cut the CPU cache, which would result in a total of 96MB L3 in its most advanced products of the next generation.

Mlid staff also state that the size of the Zen 6 generation CCD is 75mm². Tom’s hardware, meanwhile, speculates that perhaps the products will be made in TSMC’s N3P process, to advance from current 4NM, but not yet in N2, which is very expensive today.

Apus Zen 6 based will also use CCDs?

The mlid channel goes beyond its leaks and also states that the Apus for Zen 6 -based notebooks, now known as Medusa Point, will adopt the 12 -core CCD design as well. This would result in 200mm² dies, with a large NPU.

It would be a considerable change for AMD, which currently still uses monolithic design in these components. In addition, the desktop version of this line, known as Medusa Ridge, would also use CCD, in AM5 format, keeping the NPU avantjada, but giving up an integrated GPU.

Again we emphasize that we are in the phase of rumors. The first Zen 6 products should start to appear in 2026, so we should see more leaks throughout the year that can still deny or add credibility to what we have seen so far.
