It looks like the generation digit corresponds to year for Desktop CPUs too. I think the only major difference from the image I showed prior is the last digit, the desktop CPUs have different letter(s) but the other 4 digits correspond the same. For example, the 7950X is 2023, Ryzen 9, Zen 5, Lower model, and X is high power draw and clock speeds, then there is the 7955WX which is 2023, Ryzen 9, Zen 5, Upper Model (Threadripper), Workstation. The 8950X upcomming cpu is 2024, Ryzen 9, Zen5, Lower Model, High Power and clock speeds, etc. So the 8 series is still Zen 5, so its still a refresh of other zen5 chips, however it also apparently has about a 20% uplift compared to the 7 series, but its still a refresh. So the 9000 series we won’t know if its a refresh or not until we have the skus with the 3rd digit, if its a 6, then its a not a zen5 refresh, if its a 5, it is a zen5 refresh.

That’s because, according to the super secret AMD Decoder Wheel, the 7 series just means it came out in 2023, while the 8 series means it comes out in 2024, and the 9 series is any model released first released in 2025. Which means you can’t use the first digit to tell what architecture the CPU is at all, you need the 2nd digit and 3rd digit. Which means this “leak” about 9000 series is not a leak because AMD has already stated, for over a year now, that the 9 series would be CPUs released in 2025.

Awesome! Well, I will definitely be playing it when you release it.

I looked up the video, the game he actually played was a different one called “The Corridor”

I think you and them both came up with a similar concept, Stanley Parable-like narrative game about pushing a button. And both are described as Stanley Parable-Like about a button, so it looks like I probably confused the two games. I’m still going to get it when its done though.

RCE is Real Civil Engineer.

I think I remember seeing RCE play the demo of this, I thought it looked like great fun and planned to play it when it released :) Then promptly forgot about it >< But its on my wishlist now.

I saw that too, then thought, “nah, I’m good”
