- Venice (MS Server) engraved in N2P
- Venice-dense (Cloud Server) engraved in N2P

- Medusa Point 1 (Premium portable) engraved in N2P+N3P and N3P for entry -level fleas
AMD is currently working on its next generation of Zen 6 processors, expected for the end of 2026. According to documents shared with several mothermark manufacturers, the American firm will use advanced engraving technologies N3 (3 Nm) and N2 (2 nm) of TSMC.
The objective is to continue the improvements on the energy efficiency side while offering net increases.
Server, up to 256c/512t
On the servers, the future generation Epyc “Venice” will be available in two variants: a “classic” version for traditional data centers and a “dense” version intended for high density cloud environments. Both will benefit from the personalized N2P process, offering up to 10 % more frequency compared to the current N3E. Venice fleas will climb up to 256 cores and 512 threads thanks to massive configurations to 8 interconnected matrices.
General public, a varied offer
On the general public side, several code names appear in the AMD roadmap. The most emblematic is probably “Olympic Ridge”, which will propel the next Ryzen 10000 series on desktop computers, engraved in N2P. For powerful laptops, “Gator Range” is planned with consumption greater than 55 W, targeting players and creators.
AMD will also tackle the market for fine and light devices with “Medusa”. It will normally be a hybrid architecture combining components in N2P for calculation, and in N3P for inputs/outputs. More economical versions, such as “Medusa Halo” and “Bumblebee”, are also planned, although their final engraving is not yet frozen.
Thanks to a close collaboration between AMD and TSMC, future Zen 6 processors could benefit from a unique optimized architecture, close to a tailor-made “N2-AMD” node. The first samples should get out of factories before Christmas 2025.
