AIDA64 gets support for Zen 6 CPUs and Radeon RX 9060 GPUs

While the dust is still settling from the launch of Zen 5, it seems the software world is already bracing for what comes next. In a move that gives hardware enthusiasts a glimpse into the future, the latest AIDA64 update has added preliminary support for AMD's Zen 6 architecture and unreleased Radeon GPUs.

Note that this is the earliest of early support. We are talking about basic hardware identifiers being added to a database so the software doesn't crash when it eventually encounters these parts, so don't expect these new products to arrive tomorrow. In fact, we likely won't see this silicon on shelves until late 2026. Still, these software breadcrumbs are the first official hints of the components we'll be debating for the next couple of years.

The update explicitly lists initial support for Zen 6-based CPUs across server, desktop, and mobile platforms. This architecture is, of course, poised to be the eventual successor to the Zen 5 family that currently populates AMD's product stack. Early whispers point to the AM5 desktop variant of Zen 6 being codenamed “Olympic Ridge”, with some speculating it could usher in the most significant architectural shift since the move to AM4, potentially by increasing the number of cores per CCD.

On the graphics front, the AIDA64 update also threw in some intriguing new entries. For AMD, the update adds the Radeon RX 9060 XT and the professional-grade Radeon PRO R9700. Perhaps most curiously, however, is the listing for a Radeon RX 9060 (non-XT). While this could point to a mobile GPU, AIDA64's listing hints that they expect a non-XT desktop card for this SKU. The complete list of patch notes (via HXL) for AIDA64 version 7.70.7500 can be found below:

KitGuru says: Although we're still at least a year away from seeing the first Zen 6 processors, the Radeon RX 9060 shouldn't take long to arrive.
