In 2022, AMD embarked on a significant transition, moving fully to the AM5 socket with the introduction of the Zen4 architecture (Ryzen 7000 series). This move saw a substantial increase in pin count, from 1331 pins on the previous AM4 socket to 1718 pins on AM5. This evolution has cemented AM5's status as the longest-lasting CPU socket in AMD's history, capably supporting a span of four generations of processors, from Zen4 to Zen7, on a single motherboard.
