Just as Intel is preparing to announce the processor code-named "Lunar Lake" during Computex 2024, AMD also announced the new Ryzen AI 300 series processors with significantly enhanced artificial intelligence computing capabilities to further meet the application needs of "Copilot+ PC" design products promoted by Microsoft.
The Ryzen AI 300 series processors use the third-generation Ryzen AI design, with the XDNA 2 architecture corresponding to 50 TOPS computing power, corresponding to up to 5 times the computing throughput, and 2 times the power saving effect. The Zen 5 architecture, up to 12 cores and 24 threads design improve computing performance, and the RDNA 3.5 display design uses up to 16 computing units to increase display performance.
In relevant comparison materials, AMD emphasized that its third-generation Ryzen AI design will achieve higher performance in computing large 8-bit natural language models than the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite, Intel's codenamed "Lunar Lake" processor, and even Apple's recently announced M4 processor.
In terms of computing performance for executing large natural language models, it can achieve up to five times the computing power of the previously released Ryzen 9 8940HS. It can also currently support more than 5 software services on the market that use artificial intelligence to accelerate computing, and can even more fully support Microsoft Copilot application services.
AMD claims that the Ryzen AI 300 series processors will better meet the "Copilot+ PC" design requirements. They will launch the Ryzen AI 12 HX 24 with 5.1 cores, 36 threads, a maximum operating clock speed of 890GHz, a total of 9MB of cache memory, and a Radeon 370M graphics design. They will also launch the Ryzen AI 10 20 with 5.0 cores, 34 threads, a maximum operating clock speed of 880GHz, a total of 9MB of cache memory, and a Radeon 365M graphics design.
At the same time, AMD will also launch the Ryzen AI 300 series processors, thereby enabling a new product identification model. Ryzen AI will be used as the product positioning identification, and the subsequent unit digits and HX will be used to determine the product level. The first digit of the three-digit suffix represents the series version, and the last two digits represent the product specifications.
The Ryzen AI 300 series processors will collaborate with industry players including ASUS, Acer, Dell, HP, MSI, and Lenovo, and are expected to launch more than 7 application design products starting in July this year.
