# AMD HIP Library 3.2.0 Adds Medusa APU Support

October 23, 2026 at 08:35 AM

> AMD releases HIP Ray Tracing library update 3.2.0, revealing new RDNA 3.5 and RDNA 4m GPU identifiers for the upcoming Medusa APU lineup.

**AMD** has officially released the **HIP Ray Tracing library** version 3.2.0, introducing support for the upcoming **Medusa APU** lineup. The update adds three new iGPU IDs: GFX1171, GFX1170, and GFX115E, following the previously confirmed GFX1172 identifier for the series.

The new IDs reveal a hybrid architecture strategy for Medusa. The GFX117X series utilizes the **RDNA 4m** architecture, while GFX115E belongs to the RDNA 3.5 family. Medusa Point, a monolithic version, will retain RDNA 3.5 to power entry-level and mainstream units.

This release underscores AMD's competitive roadmap against **Intel**, which recently upgraded to the Xe3 architecture. As Intel prepares its Xe3P Arc D-Series for 2026, AMD is leveraging a mix of RDNA 3.5 and RDNA 4m to scale performance across its mobile chips.
