The current-gen are the 600 series, so next-gen will be. the 800 series?
Regular HotHardware readers will recall that we reported on the leaked naming scheme for AMD’s next-generation Ryzen processors. At that time, it was thought that AMD’s upcoming chips would be named something like “Ryzen AI 9 HX 170”, but according to more recent leaks, it seems like AMD will instead go with “Ryzen AI 9 HX 270” so that it has processor model number parity with Intel. The latest leak implies that the company will also do the same thing with its chipset naming.
So, the current-generation Ryzen chipsets are the 600 series: X670, B650, and A620. You’d naturally expect that the next-generation parts would be the 700 series, but according to Chinese hardware site Benchlife, motherboard vendors are actually going to be building boards around AMD “800 series” chipsets instead.
