AMD has DDR5 on roadmap

GamersNexus has received an AMD roadmap from an insider whom we’ve previously verified. Internal roadmaps are constantly subject to change and aren’t public promises, so this is really more useful as something to look out for, not necessarily something to bet on. That’s especially true given the current economic and manufacturing uncertainty in the global climate.

All of those disclaimers out of the way, we ask that you not overly sensationalize this news and just keep it to the facts: The roadmap we received, which we are unable to share as it is likely marked to find leakers, indicates that 2022 is the year that AMD is intending to get DDR5 into its premium desktop lineup. The 2022 platform will retain PCIe4 and will likely be a Zen4 product, also intended to feature native USB4 support. The APUs for that year also presently have DDR5 on the roadmap and are listed as Zen3+ parts. The mobile roadmap has DDR5 LP5 on-board for 2022 in the premium and gaming lines.

We have more information than that, but since we know how wildly internal roadmaps can change, we’re going to exercise responsibility and withhold the rest until we get closer to those windows.
