Just to be clear, it’s Ryzen that has 10 year anniversary. And it’s actually not until March 2027. It is only 9 years and 2 months since the first Ryzen CPU was released.

Ryzen R7 5800 X3D came out Apr 20, 2022. So that particular CPU is “only” 4 years old.

According to the article, the anniversary edition is identical to the original, so no improved production process or anything.

Still impressive that a 4 year old CPU is still relevant today. I run my games fine on a standard R7 5800X.
