AMD Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster confirmed the Zen 6 server processor launch for July 22 and 23. The announcement took place at the Raise Summit 2026. Codenamed Venice, these EPYC CPUs utilize TSMC’s 2nm manufacturing process to drive performance gains.

The server market remains a critical, high-margin segment for AMD. This schedule solidifies the timeline for the company's next major product cycle. Desktop Ryzen variants based on Zen 6 architecture may arrive later in 2026.
