History
PredecessorZen 5

Zen 6 is the name for an upcoming CPU microarchitecture from AMD, shown on their roadmap in July 2024.[1][2] It is the successor to Zen 5 and is believed to use TSMC's 3 nm and 2 nm processes. Desktop processors will be codenamed "Medusa" under the Ryzen 10000 name,[3] while Epyc server processors will be codenamed "Venice".[4]

Just like Zen 4 and Zen 5, the Zen 6 is also expected to come with the standard variants as well as a high-core-density variant named "Zen 6c".

Zen 6 is expected to release in 2025.[1]
