Medusa Point Zen 6 10-core Surges Ahead, Hits 5.4 GHz and Tops Zen 5 by ~35%

AMD's Medusa Point Zen 6 10-core engineering sample posted 3,329 points in single‑core and 16,555 in multi‑core on Geekbench at 5.4 GHz, signaling a notable uplift over Zen 5 Strix Point and clocking up to 5.37 GHz; the sample previously outpaced Ryzen AI 9 365 by roughly 29% and is now about 35% faster in multi‑core, though early Geekbench data and engineering samples should be treated cautiously ahead of an official launch.

Medusa Point APU Matches Strix Point Geekbench Scores at Half Clock

AMD’s Medusa Point APU (Zen 6) shows promising Geekbench v6 results with a 10-core/20-thread engineering sample delivering about 2,300 single-core and 13,002 multi-core scores at a base 2.4 GHz (actual ~2.0–2.1 GHz). Surprisingly, it matches a Strix Point APU running at more than double its clock speed, with slightly lower single-core but higher multicore performance. The data suggests IPC gains and possible FP16/AVX-VNNI acceleration, though final performance will depend on later benchmarks; official launch is expected around CES 2027.

AMD Zen 6 Medusa Point 28W Low-TDP Stepping Spotted in NBD Manifest

A Medusa Point 28W Low-TDP (Medusa 1 A0) stepping for AMD's Zen 6 mobile lineup appeared in an NBD shipping manifest, confirming a 28W low-power tier alongside a 45W High-TDP line. The Low-TDP family targets Ryzen 5/7 with configurations up to 22 cores across mixed Classic/Dense/Low Power cores, shares the FP10 socket with the High-TDP family, and uses RDNA 3.5 graphics with 8 CUs. RDNA 5 is not expected until 2027, and the Medusa Point is seen as a successor to Krackan Point, potentially competing with budget Nova Lake mobile CPUs.
