AMD at Computex 2026
AMD is at Computex 2026, though there won’t be a keynote this year from AMD. AMD is still announcing some interesting things, and hardware and gaming-related for DIY as well! It’s that time of the year again for Computex 2026, where we are bound to see new announcements, launches, and insights into what is coming for the rest of this year and into the next. AMD has shared with us what it will be talking about for 2026, so let’s dive right into it. We are going to publish every single slide from AMD’s press deck for Computex 2026, so sit back and enjoy. We’ll make comments on relevant new PC gaming hardware and things.
AMD Platform Experience
AMD encompasses Gaming, AI, and Creation. In the gaming line, you’ll find the DIY market with the Ryzen CPUs and Radeon RX graphics. We must also not forget the console markets, and handheld as well, where AMD has dominated lately. This also extends to the Commercial and Professional sector with Ryzen PRO, Ryzen AI PRO CPUs, and graphics.
Ryzen 7 5800X3D Lives Again
If you thought we were done with AM4, you’d be mistaken. AMD is re-launching? the Ryzen 7 5800X3D CPU in the AMD AM4 Anniversary Edition to celebrate 10 years of gaming dominance. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D socket AM4 CPU has been one of AMD’s, dare I say, best ever CPU launched. It was the first CPU to usher in this new idea of 3D stacked cache on the CCD to allow better gaming performance, and it worked, and then some! Even today, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D holds up.
This Anniversary Edition has nothing new; it has the exact same specs as the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, it is simply a new CPU in name only. It is to honor the gaming experience. It arrives on June 25th, 2026, at $349 SEP. This is at least $100 cheaper than it originally launched at, which was $449 in 2022. Again, this is no different than the non-Anniversary Edition, but with the lower price point, it could be appealing if you are on an aging lower-end AM4 platform and CPU and need that gaming upgrade.
AMD Extending AM5 Longevity to 2029
If there is one thing AMD is known for these days, it is platform longevity. Nothing competes with the AM4 platform’s longevity, and this has been a good thing for gamers. Originally, AMD announced a lengthy time for AM5 as well, stating longevity on the AM5 platform till 2027+. WELL, AMD is officially extending that more!
Yep, that’s right, AMD is officially extending the AM5 platform through 2029!!!1111!!. This is amazing to hear and see. To be honest, we don’t typically see something like this. This confirms, as we already knew, that Zen 6 will be on AM5. However, it really helps solidify the idea that Zen 7 will also be on AM5!!!!111. I mean, what else are we to infer from that? Honestly, it is pretty amazing.
AMD Ryzen 7 7700X3D
AMD is announcing a new CPU for the AM5 platform, the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X3D processor. This is, as the name suggests, a Zen 4 AM5-based CPU with 8 cores and 16 threads. It is clocked at 4.5GHz and has 3D V-Cache on board as a gaming-focused CPU. It is a step-down from the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, but only slightly in clock speed. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is clocked up to 5GHz, so this new Ryzen 7 7700X3D steps that down 500MHz to 4.5GHz. Otherwise, both are 8-core/16-thread CPUs with the same capacity of 3D V-Cache and the same 120W TDP. It will arrive on July 16th, 2026, at $329 SEP.
AMD EXPO Ultra Low Latency
We don’t often see updates to memory like this, but AMD is announcing a new AMD EXPO Ultra Low Latency memory. These new modules will have automatic memory overclocking, provide an additional 4% FPS (on AVG) vs non-ULL EXPO memory, and be available from leading memory partners. We don’t have a lot of details yet, but it sounds like new modules that have new tuned EXPO profiles on board to allow for very low latency settings. In turn, these lower latencies will improve performance. AMD claims improved average FPS as well as improved 1% lows in games, which is very important. We will have to try this out and see what the real-world advantages are, but it is very exciting.
AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE
You may have already heard of the Radeon RX 9070 GRE, which is because it has already been available as a China-exclusive video card since May 2025. The new news today is that AMD is extending its availability to the US and global markets now. This will be a video card you can get here in the US, finally. The Radeon RX 9070 GRE is geared for 1440p gamers, and sits between the Radeon RX 9060 XT and Radeon RX 9070 in spec and performance, though closer to the Radeon RX 9070 on that scale. The announcement today is that for the US, the starting MSRP is $549, which sits at the SAME price point the Radeon RX 9070 launched at. AMD says it will be arriving on June 1st, 2026. Stay tuned, we will have a lot more about the Radeon RX 9070 GRE coming up.
FSR 4.1
FSR 4 and 4.1 is supported on RDNA 4, but now, finally, AMD has seen the light and is bringing INT8 FSR 4.1 support down to the RDNA 3 series of GPUs (Radeon 7000 series) starting in July 2026. AMD will also be bringing FSR 4.1 support to RDNA 2 GPUs (Radeon 6000 series), but you will still have to wait quite a while, Q1 2027, for that to come to pass.
AMD Ryzen AI Processors & Ryzen AI Halo Developer Platform
We are going to breeze through the AI CPU stuffs, but as you can see above, AMD is dedicated to the realm of AI and Agentic Computing. You’ve got the Ryzen AI Max Processors, and AMD is introducing the Ryzen AI Max PRO 400 Processors. We can see in the SKUs the 495 Max+ Pro, 490 Max PRO, and 485 Max PRO. More interesting is the new AMD Ryzen AI Halo Development system. It uses Ryzen AI Max+ 395 and Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495 CPU options. It will be available for pre-order in June 2026, starting at $3,999 USD.
Commercial & Professional
Similarly, if you are interested in the Commercial & Professional side, then this is for you. I think the important part here is AMD’s focus on shifting to on-device local AI processing, and AMD has the hardware for you. AMD Ryzen AI PRO 400 Series Processor desktop systems are coming Q3 2026; otherwise, AMD Ryzen 9000 Series Processors are great options for workstations, such as the new Ryzen 9 9950X3D2. AMD also says its Radeon AI PRO R9700 graphics are great for workstations, for AI and creator workloads, with an increasing number of Windows and Linux applications.
Conclusion
Though there is the required mention of AI these days, we are actually pleased to see a lot of client/consumer, DIY-focused announcements from AMD at Computex 2026. A lot of the focus today is on gamers, and this is becoming a rarer and rarer thing to see.
The 10th Anniversary Edition Ryzen 7 5800X3D is neat, and coming in a lower price than it originally launched at makes it more appealing as an upgrade today for an aging system without having to upgrade platforms, if you are on AM4 already. It is, however, unchanged from the original Ryzen 7 5800X3D. It would have been neat to see a frequency upgrade at least, like a binned 5800X3D that could clock higher, that would have been a nice touch for the 10th Anniversary Edition. Regardless, it is nice to see AMD recognizes the innovation and success that the Ryzen 7 5800X3D started for gamers.
The AM5 socket longevity announcement we did not see coming. AMD had pretty much covered it in the initial AM5 launch, stating a “2027+” longevity timeframe of the platform. However, to our surprise, AMD must be feeling really confident about the platform to officially extend support “through 2029.” This must certainly indicate that Zen 7 is coming to AM5, right? RIGHT?
The Ryzen 7 7700X3D is just another, cheaper option compared to the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. Since the only difference is a reduced clock speed, for gaming, having the same 3D V-Cache probably performs nearly the same, but for less money, so that CPU is a really nice option for a cheaper gaming experience on AM5.
The AMD EXPO Ultra Low Latency is a really interesting one. We know that latency is very important on the AMD platform, and lower memory timings can improve gaming performance. We don’t know how low they can go, but we look forward to this. It sounds like new memory profiles on better stable RAM, or maybe CUDIMMs? It’s possible with new firmware and such, so who knows, but we look forward to testing the results. At any rate, it’s great to see the platform evolve like this.
Bringing the Radeon RX 9070 GRE to the US and global markets is a good decision. It has the potential to be a great option for 1440p gaming, especially with FSR 4.1 support. Everything will depend on the price, though the MSRP is $549; what will it really be in retail once it is available? We’ll have to see. Stay tuned, though, we may have more about this video card to help you make your buying decision.
That’s going to do it for the AMD Computex 2026 news for now, let us know what you think about these announcements from AMD in our forums, we look forward to your feedback and thoughts.
