NVIDIA and Intel had their moment in the spotlight, and now it’s AMD’s turn. The chipmaker is kicking off CES 2026 on Monday night, where it’ll cover its latest AI developments and perhaps show off its newest Ryzen chips. It’s the kickoff keynote of CES 2026, and CEO Dr. Lisa Su is expected to outline how AMD’s hardware will power the AI revolution — and what the company can offer partners and consumers that those aforementioned rivals can’t.
We’ll tell you how to tune in to the livestream and what else you can expect to see.
How to watch AMD’s keynote live
Dr. Su will deliver a keynote speech from the Palazzo Ballroom at the Venetian on Monday, January 5 at 9:30PM ET (6:30PM PT). You can watch the event live on the CES YouTube channel (we’ve embedded the livestream below).
Engadget will also be liveblogging the AMD keynote in real-time.
What to expect from AMD at CES 2026
While AMD says it’s keeping its product details under wraps, we can expect “updates on AI solutions, from cloud to enterprise, edge and devices.”
It’s also likely that AMD will unveil its new versions of the Ryzen chips during its keynote on Monday, as Su will talk about the “advancements driven by Ryzen CPUs.” That could include the Ryzen 7 9850X3D, which is expected to have better single-threaded performance than its predecessors. Additionally, we can expect to see the Ryzen 9000G series, which is potentially built with AMD’s Zen 5 architecture.
Regarding AI, AMD could further discuss its new FSR Redstone technology, which it previously previewed on December 10. AMD’s upscaling tech aims to close the gap on NVIDIA’s DLSS 4, which was announced during CES 2025.
Su’s presentation caps off CES’s press day, so she’ll be taking the stage in the hours after rivals NVIDIA and Intel present their chipmaking and AI plans to the world. As a reminder of how cross-linked these companies have become: OpenAI has pledged billions of dollars of hardware orders to AMD, while rival NVIDIA has invested billions in OpenAI — and taken a stake worth billions in Intel, too.
