AMD Notebook Processor Roadmap to 2024 – Phoenix Point with Zen 4 and RDNA 3


Fortunately, along with other products, the roadmap of notebook processors AMD Also published by 2024, which includes examples such as Phoenix Point and Strix Point.

AMD has confirmed that the next-generation Phoenix Point and Strix Point APUs will power future laptops with special features. The Phoenix Point uses a combination of Zen 4 architecture for CPU and RDNA 3 for integrated graphics, and the manufacturing technology will be 4nm, while Strix Point uses Zen 5 cores and RDNA 3 Plus integrated graphics on a more advanced node (possibly 3nm). ) Will use.

The new Phoenix APUs support both LPDDR5 and PCIe Gen 5.0 standards, and will include 35- to 45-watt models. This line-up will be unveiled in 2023 and probably at CES 2023.

According to previous information, the Ryzen 7000 Phoenix series may still offer up to 8 16-thread cores, while the higher number of cores is offered exclusively by Dragon Range chips. However, Phoenix is ​​expected to have more graphics cores and significantly increase performance.

It was initially rumored that Strix Point APUs might use a hybrid architecture and have two types of Zen cores. Of course, the core is Zen 5, while the rest of the cores may use the older Zen 4 architecture. However, the new roadmap confirms that we will only see Zen 5 architecture for this series.

Of course, there is talk of a new Level 4 cache system for Strix Point processors, but it has not been confirmed yet. Until now, AMD APUs have used an integrated design where all components (CPU / GPU / IO) are all on the same die. This is not yet known for next-generation models, but technologies such as Infinity Cache (along with RDNA 3 Plus graphics architecture) are expected for the Strix Point series.
