AMD's Krackan Point APUs, part of the Ryzen 9000G series, are expected to make their way to desktops soon, with a new BIOS update adding support for the Ryzen AI 300 series. The update, featuring AGESA version 1.2.7.0, hints at the arrival of Krackan Point CPUs. These new APUs, built on Zen 5 architecture with RDNA 3.5 integrated graphics, promise a significant performance boost compared to the previous Ryzen 8000G series. While the Strix Point APU remains more powerful, the focus for now seems to be on mobile devices, with potential for a unified Ryzen 9000G series combining both Krackan and Strix Point configurations. More details may emerge after AMD's CEO, Lisa, speaks at CES 2026.
