Imagine this: a tech giant makes a statement in 2016, launches a platform called AM4.  The platform last released tangible updates in 2022. Meanwhile, its successor, the AM5, is out and about since 2022.  This successor is likewise hanging around the scene and has not taken back the crown from AM4 despite being touted as the new top dog. Confirmation of this came from AMD directly.

    Unsurprisingly, many people still feel AM4 is viable. A significant reason why is down to the fact that processors from 2016-2022 are still sportin' AM4's features.  Past iterations of this socket allow for continual usage- for instance, gamers, engineers, and normal users are still comfortable.  Patients are still pleased with their old gear.  Plexers who buy computer parts for themselves feel they still have a long way more they can work with things built for AM4,   Tech enthusiasts can look back and praise it, even to this day. Yet, should you not know what to be purchasing in the right know?  Should Customers should be prompt enough to jump ship for AM5?

     Now, the New Ryzen thing hasn't really been able to push things. This includes a new socket.  Some American customers have begun to take a stance that AMD should be less lax. They are almost down to nine top sellers includes the 5000 series CPUs. Many US citizens take a liking to AMD.  Especially those still in the nerd corner are always watching what changes may be on the horizon.

    AMD's game plan has earned them the trust they have now, they've squalled it with their platforms' dependability, extending its support  Judah long enough. Some argue that the old stuff's reliability made Ryzen a thing, and it will consider transitioning to the next socked generation when it's just the right time.  But AMD seems to have a hang on this one.  They're still riding the success of AM4.

    And AMD continue to do this- to be the benefit of your beloved demographic: us, here- we here AM4

    Meanwhile,  7000-series?  People should stop holding out for the success of the Ryzen 9 XP5950X version of that processor, as it is not a small leap.  You wont find many surprises in the 5000-series AM5 line after  the over half decade spent with AM4.

    Only five of the top 30 CPUs from Intel are there- which when compared to AMD in America that is a great dip. It is no doubt that AM4 isn't going to disappear anytime soon.

    This all comes down to one thing: AM4, us customers can look to the horizon and see APUs are not disappearing, and it has left a good reputation behind.  But people need to stay updated. The discontinuing of AM4 is not a thing of the near future.

     How is AMD doing against Intel? Intel still has recognition, but AM4 and Ryzen do not have to partner with many other peripherals.  Considering the time span AM4 has survived so long, the still refreshing Ryzen CPUs continue to see high sales.  And this reminds us how competitive it was always to walk into the game with affordable CPUS

This all brings me onto the point of AMD's commitment towards AM5.  AMD has to show that its about longevity and not EA with their sockets.  AMD is showing now how it truly wants to maintain its success with both sockets, but will not be rushed.
