The first AMD processors with Zen 5 architecture are expected to launch in the second half of 2024, but partly because they are not capable of supporting Windows 10. The reason for this is no question that AMD either for the “AI PC” technologies that, by yourself, is directed to Windows 11.
Focus on artificial intelligence
Rumor has it that a person claims to be the head of Lenovo in China and is posting details about the Zen 5 chips on the social network Weibo. One of the claims is that the new processors have achieved about a 10% increase in IPC (English sign for “instructions per clock cycle”) in relation to current management.
But the statement which causes or espanto is the following APU (AMD chips combining CPU and GPU) Strix Point, which will be based on the Zen 5 architecture, does not have drivers for Windows 10.
Also, a combination of CPU and GPU cores, you hope the Strix Point chips will have one NPU (Neural Processing Unit) capaz de atingir 77 TOPS de empenho.
Each TOP corresponds to a quarter of operations per second. For Microsoft, it is precisely about the capacity of the computer in less than 40 TOPS to be considered a PC AIThat is, a machine is capable of performing dependent artificial intelligence or online service tasks.

Is this a reason to abandon Windows 10?
Sending to the social network Weibo is not a source of security. The information disclosed may be inaccurate. However, AMD will not decide to develop drivers for Windows 10 on the Zen 5 architecture. That is why Microsoft will strive to support Windows in October 2025.
Even so, it will be a decision made, which will be confirmed. A recent development indicates that o Windows 10 is present on 70% of PCs than Microsoft operating systems.
On the other hand, AMD intends that this will make it possible to concentrate the efforts that are most relevant at this time: artificial intelligence. Oh TechSpot It turns out that the company is ready to claim to have placed the acronym “AI” in our names of its nearby chips.
