Leaked AGESA 1.2.7.0 Code Points to Zen 5 APUs Arriving on AM5

New BIOS entries with microcode 00B60Fxx suggest Krackan Point support without official confirmation.

Overview

  • Tom’s Hardware reports that MSI’s AGESA 1.2.7.0 includes microcode 00B60Fxx, which leaker HXL and prior documentation associate with Krackan Point (Ryzen AI 300).
  • ASUS has posted beta AGESA 1.2.7.0 firmware for AM5 800‑series boards listing “New APUs Support,” signaling vendor preparation for next‑gen desktop APUs.
  • The findings were data‑mined and are not in official release notes, so they indicate readiness but do not constitute an AMD product announcement.
  • Reports suggest the rumored Ryzen 9000G desktop line could leverage Zen 5 CPU cores, RDNA 3.5 graphics, and an NPU targeting roughly 50–55 TOPS.
  • Coverage references a tentative Q4 2025 window and possible 65W parts such as Ryzen 5 9500G and Ryzen 7 9700G, described as unconfirmed and subject to change.
