CoresStorm Peak; Zen 4. Boxed product ID 100-100000887WOF; tray ID 100-000000887. Announced 19 October 2023. HP stated November 2023 availability for the Z6 G5 A; its original 27 November QuickSpecs lists this exact processor as a factory option. Release is kept at OEM month precision; the exact first shipping day is unverified. AMD’s 21 November DIY date covered selected PRO models and is not applied here.Shimada Peak; Zen 5 architecture. Tray product ID 100-000000726. AMD lists a launch date of 23 July 2025. Its July availability blog omits this exact model from the table; the first exact-model OEM on-sale month is not established, so release precision remains 2025.
