The apparent Zen 5 desktop chip would be AMD's first 16-core PRO processor with 3D V-Cache, extending a lineup that previously topped out at 12 cores.
PassMark showed it 7.3% behind the Ryzen 9 9950X3D in multi-threading and 2.7% lower in single-threading, though the listing appeared to misreport L3 cache at 32MB.
Its TDP remains unclear, with reports pointing to either a typical 65W PRO envelope or 170W, making efficiency and final positioning uncertain ahead of any official AMD confirmation.
Is AMD's new 16-core chip an efficiency marvel or a power-hungry beast for professional workstations?
Without an NPU, is AMD's new desktop CPU already falling behind Intel in the AI PC race?
