PS6 Rumor Hints at AMD Zen 5 SoC With X3D Cache Technology

Expert Verified By

PS6 Set to Push Boundaries with Advanced Chip Design.

Story Highlight
  • Sony’s next-generation PlayStation, likely released in 2027, will use an AMD processor featuring 3D V-Cache technology.
  • The processor will also incorporate Zen 5 CPU cores and UDNA GPU architecture.
  • AMD’s 3D V-Cache technology will be a key component in the PlayStation 6’s APU.

Zhang, an insider, claims that Sony Corporation has chosen the processor configuration for the upcoming PlayStation. The APU in the next generation of PlayStation will be based on 3D V-Cache technology.

In a recent post on Chiphell, a leaker hinted that Sony would “stack 3D to improve the performance of both CPU and GPU” on the platform, most likely the PlayStation 6.

Why it matters: The PlayStation 6 will likely offer faster load times, smoother gameplay, and better overall gaming experiences by using 3D V-Cache technology and new GPU architecture.

AMD sells processors based on this technology under the X3D brand, which is regarded as the best gaming chip. By using 3D V-Cache technology, AMD can considerably boost its processor’s cache memory, which improves gaming performance.

Furthermore, with AMD’s last RDNA architecture, RDNA 4, powering the company’s future desktop Radeon RX 9000 series GPUs, the new UDNA GPU architecture is supposedly what will power Sony’s next-generation PS6 system.

According to recent speculation, the AMD next-generation APU that will power Sony’s next PlayStation 6 system will combine Zen 5 CPU cores, X3D cache, and UDNA GPU architecture.

Although Microsoft has reportedly yet to decide whether its next-generation console will require 3D V-Cache, it will most likely be based on AMD technology. However, the company might take a different approach to competing with its rivals.

While the next generation of consoles has yet to be confirmed, the PlayStation 6 will likely be released in 2027.
