Every Gaming Announcement AMD Made at Computex 2026

Alongside it, AMD is celebrating a decade of the Socket AM4 platform with the Ryzen 7 5800X3D 10th Anniversary Edition. This is a commemorative re-release of the original Zen 3 chip that first introduced 3D V-Cache to desktops. It retains the original specs—8 cores, 16 threads, up to 4.5 GHz boost, and 96 MB of total L3 cache—and will be available on June 25, 2026, at $349 . The package includes an included Carbice Ice Pad for thermal management and is compatible with AMD 400- and 500-series motherboards .

Radeon RX 9070 GRE Goes Global for QHD Gaming

Perhaps the most requested move was the global release of the Radeon RX 9070 GRE. Initially launched as a China-exclusive card in May 2025, AMD officially brought the "Great Rabbit Edition" to worldwide markets starting June 1, 2026 . Built on the RDNA 4 architecture, the card is aimed squarely at QHD (1440p) gaming and comes equipped with 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus . It also supports FSR 4.1 for RDNA 3 GPUs, making it a forward-looking choice for upscaling performance . Global pricing lands at approximately $549 .

EXPO Ultra Low Latency Aims to Shrink DDR5 Timings

Beyond the CPU and GPU hardware, AMD introduced a new memory overclocking technology called EXPO Ultra Low Latency (ULL). The goal is straightforward: reduce DDR5 memory latency on Ryzen platforms to extract additional gaming performance . While AMD has not yet published exact latency reductions, the introduction of ULL EXPO profiles signals a focused effort to make AM5 systems more competitive in latency-sensitive gaming workloads .

AM5 Platform Support Extended Through 2029

Providing long-term confidence to builders, AMD formally committed to supporting the Socket AM5 platform through 2029 . The announcement mirrors the extended lifespan of AM4, which is itself being highlighted by the 10th Anniversary Edition CPU launch. The commitment means users who invest in a current AM5 motherboard can expect CPU upgrade headroom well into the second half of the decade, a contrast to rival platforms with shorter socket lifecycles .
