I'm still praying it will be called 8000 non G series to upgrade to r7 8800 and RX 8800

I hope they release an unlocked X3D chip. 8800X3DX paired with an XFX RX 8800 XTX.

I hope they drop the ryzen name and start anew from 1000
And ftlog not call it ryzen ultra

AMD Ryzen 7 Ultra 10620HX

Zen2 + Vega just rebadging old stock, wouldn't surprise me because they're still doing it now, five years after RDNA1 replaced Vega.

8K series was a sort of letdown for laptops. Hoping the next gen is a big step up... Hopefully AMD doesn't adopt the Intel strategy of just increasing TDP for more performance.

Zen 4 was overhyped IMO, not much new on the core just incremental improvements and a gateway to new interfaces like PCIe 5 and DDR5.

Zen 5 is the real deal, the core is changed significantly and well beyond this AVX-512 talk. For all practical purposes, this is an entirely new uArch (I consider Zen 2-4 to be the same uArch).

AMD Zen 5 Details Emerge with GCC "Znver5" Patch: New AVX Instructions, Larger Pipelines

AMD's upcoming family of Ryzen 9000 series of processors on the AM5 platform will carry a new silicon SKU under the hood—Zen 5. The latest revision of AMD's x86-64 microarchitecture will feature a few interesting improvements over its current Zen 4 that it is replacing, targeting the rumored...

A lot of people are talking about the fact that there's no 8000-series but that shouldn't be a surprise because new Zen architectures have always been odd-numbered:

Zen1: 1000 (example: Ryzen 7 1700)
Zen1+: 2000 (example: Ryzen 7 2700X)
Zen2: 3000 (example: Ryzen 5 3600X)
Zen3: 5000 (example: Ryzen 7 5800X3D)
Zen4: 7000 (example: Ryzen 9 7950X)

Generally, any even-numbered models have either been the Zen1 refresh (Zen+) or specifically used for mobile APUs (Ryzen 5 4600U). The question now is, "Where will they go from here?".

I worry AMD may have painted themselves into a number scheme corner

Zen5: 9000 (example: Ryzen 9 9950X)
Zen6: 11000 (example: Intel 11900K) <--- oh no!

Nah, We going to 20950x.
