Can they double the memory lanes without switching socket ? If not I feel like PC is going to fall behind even further compared to Apple chips. Having ram on chip sucks for repairability but 500gb/s main ram bandwidth is insane.

They stumbled into the right direction with strix halo but I have a feeling they won't recognize the win/follow up.

So Zen 6/7 will have a core design and a CCD design. But like past gens, these will be packaged into different products with different sockets and packages (everything from monolithic APUs to sprawling multi-chiplet Server cpus).

So to say that Zen 6/7 supports AM5 on desktop, doesn't necessarily exclude that Zen 6/7 product family in general doesn't support other new/interesting sockets on desktop (or mobile) also. Maybe products for AM6 and AM5 from the same zen family.

Medusa Halo and the Zen7 based 'Grimlock Halo' version might be the interesting ones to watch (if you like efficient Apple-stlyle big APUs with all the memory bandwidth)
