AMD Ryzen AI PRO 400 for AM5 socket
During Lenovo’s CES 2026 keynote, a slide briefly showed Ryzen AI PRO 400 on an AM5 socket. That is the clearest confirmation so far that Ryzen AI 400 is coming to socketed desktops, and it also signals there will be no “Ryzen 9000G” desktop APU naming this time.
AMD already hinted at this in a press slide during its CES briefing, saying the 400 series would reach desktops. The wording was easy to miss, though. This Lenovo keynote slide makes it clear.

On the specs side, AMD has been framing Ryzen AI 400 as a 4 nm refresh of the same “Gorgon Point” family used in laptops. It’s not yet clear if AMD will use both Krackan and Strix Point silicons for desktops, but AGESA updates we have seen over the the past few months clearly suggest that both are coming.
Expect higher clocks and a faster NPU (hence the Copilit+ branding). If AMD is to use Strix Point, one should also get more cores and better graphics. The top config AMD talked about is up to 12 cores and 24 threads, up to 5.2 GHz boost, and an RDNA 3.5 iGPU with up to 16 compute units.
AMD still has not shared desktop SKU names or prices. From what I recall, AMD did not explicitly mention when desktop Ryzen 400 is coming, but it would surprise me if we were talking about late Q1 or late Q2 of this year.
