Today, AMD is promising it will keep supporting its AM5 desktop motherboard socket with new Ryzen processors through 2029, which likely means you can keep upgrading to newer CPUs till the end of the decade without changing your board.
Even if you’re still on the older AM4 socket, you may have one last upgrade left: it’s relaunching a “10th Anniversary” edition of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D to celebrate the 10th anniversary of that AM4 platform. That’ll be $349 on June 25th.
And if you decide now’s the time to switch to AMD or the AM5 socket, the company’s got a new old chip for that too: a $330 Ryzen 7 7700X3D, likely a binned version of the existing 7800X3D. The beefier chip costs $380 to $450, though can occasionally be found at $320. On paper, the 7700X3D looks only slightly slower:
Meanwhile in the GPU realm, AMD’s finally bringing its formerly China-exclusive Radeon RX 9070 GRE to other countries including the US, starting June 1st for $549.
That’s not quite as friendly for PC gamers to hear, as $549 was supposed to be the starting price for the notably more powerful RX 9070, not the cut-down GRE version which trails the RTX 5070.
AMD’s making an interesting pitch at a time that everything, especially gaming, is beginning to feel too expensive. Does it convince you?

But for desktop PC gamers, AMD has a different pitch. It’s relaunching three old components alongside a big new promise: you won’t need to buy a new motherboard until 2030.

Actress Celina Jaitly has been served with two legal notices by her husband Peter Haag and his father, Wolfgang J. Haag, according to a statement issued by Mumbai-based law firm Semwal & Co., Advocates & Solicitors.
Celina Jaitly receives legal notices from husband Peter Haag and father-in-law amid ongoing court proceedings
The notices have reportedly been sent in connection with statements and allegations that the Haag family claims have been circulated through social media platforms, interviews, digital publications, and other media channels in recent months.
According to the statement, one notice has been issued by Wolfgang J. Haag in his capacity as Peter Haag’s father and the grandfather of the couple’s children. The second notice has been issued by Peter Haag, who has cited concerns regarding his reputation as well as the privacy and welfare of the couple’s three minor children.
The legal notices state that matrimonial and child custody proceedings between the parties are currently pending before courts in Austria. The Haag family has alleged that despite the ongoing judicial process, various public statements and media reports containing allegations against Peter Haag and other members of his family have continued to circulate.
The family has denied allegations that have reportedly appeared in public statements and media coverage, including claims relating to domestic violence, emotional abuse, intimidation, harassment, relocation of children, and issues connected to religion and radicalisation.
A key aspect of the notices concerns the couple’s children. The family has expressed concern over the public discussion of matters involving the minors, including the use of their names, photographs, and personal details in media reports. According to the statement, such publicity has exposed the children to unnecessary public attention during an ongoing legal process.
The notices further state that the family believes the alleged publications amount to defamation, invasion of privacy, and interference with ongoing judicial proceedings. Among the demands outlined are the removal of certain content, a public clarification and apology, and restraint from making further public statements concerning the ongoing legal matter and the children.
Commenting on the issue, Solicitor Yesha Shah, Partner at Semwal & Co., said, “Laws enacted for the protection of women are among the most important safeguards in a civilised society. However, when matrimonial disputes are converted into public media trials through unverified allegations and emotional narratives, the very sanctity and purpose of such laws stand diluted. Legal remedies must remain instruments of justice and protection, and not tools for public vilification or reputational destruction.”
The statement adds that Peter Haag and Wolfgang Haag reserve the right to pursue civil and criminal remedies if the demands outlined in the notices are not complied with. The family has also stated that it does not intend to make further public comments at this stage due to the ongoing proceedings before Austrian courts.
