AMD extends Socket AM5 platform support until at least 2029
AMD will extend support for its desktop CPU Socket AM5 platform until at least 2029, lengthening the period in which users can upgrade to future Ryzen processors without changing motherboards. AMD had previously planned support through 2025, later extending it beyond 2027, and has now set a minimum of 2029. AMD also announced the Ryzen 7 7700X3D, priced at $329 and launching on July 16, and said it will re-release the Ryzen 7 5800X3D as a 10th anniversary edition for $349 on June 25.
