AMD has reportedly decided to make its new RDNA 5 gaming GPUs extra transformative by giving them codenames named after Transformers characters, although there's sadly no Megatron or Optimus Prime GPU on the way. These rumored internal names aren’t likely to be used outside of the company, but they do potentially give us an insight into the company’s future plans.

These new rumored AMD codenames point towards three separate areas of focus. One, unsurprisingly, points to future GPUs for gaming PCs and laptops, ones that we hope to see in our best graphics card guide. The other two leaked codenames reportedly correspond with chips for next-gen game consoles, with future Xbox and PlayStation GPUs expected to use these new RDNA 5 GPUs, too.
