Putting Strix Halo into the AM5 socket would make no sense. Half the memory controllers would be orphaned and the GPU would be severely bandwidth-starved (assuming that the memory controller on Strix Halo actually supports DDR5 and not just LPDDR5).

Yeah the next generation of Strix Halo is what would get me excited. I think right now TSMC has no capacity, so maybe we have to wait another year. Kinda ironic that all CPU/RAM capacity is being sold to LLM companies, and as a result we can't get the hardware needed for good local LLMs.
