AMD Zen5-based Strix Point and 16-core Fire Range CPUs spotted in shipping manifests

AMD Strix Point and Fire Range spotted in transit

It’s raining Zen5.

It looks like AMD is moving several unreleased processors between its headquarters and labs. Something that we rarely see these days are shipping manifests that confirm anything more than a codename, but here we actually have some information that was not disclosed by AMD.

Starting with the Strix Point APU, AMD is working on two variants featuring different classes: “R7 – Ryzen 7” or “R9 – Ryzen 9”. The name “Strix128W” suggests that we are either looking at Strix Halo, the high-end APU rumored to feature 40 Compute Units, or it’s actually Strix 1 with 28W TDP, which is a mainstream mobile APU. What is clear though is that both entries confirm support for FP8 socket.

Another product that made an appearance is the “Fire Range”. As we know, AMD is set to refresh its gaming high-end APU class, targeting 55W TDP. What we are looking at are either Ryzen 8055 or Ryzen 9055 SKUs, depending on when AMD actually releases them. What’s confirmed is that the APU supports 16 cores, which is also supposedly the maximum configuration of the desktop Zen5 variant. The Fire Range SKUs are nothing else than desktop silicon on a mobile package.
