AMD will launch Ryzen 7040 Phoenix processors in late April

As Golden Pig Upgrade announced on the Chinese site Bilibili, AMD is not going to until the end of April to supply Ryzen 7040 Phoenix laptop processors.

The release of Ryzen 7040 Phoenix processors at the end of April

Ryzen 7040 Phoenix processors are the new generation of AMD laptop APUs, developed on the basis of Zen 4 and RDNA 3 architectures. These processors are essentially replacements for the Ryzen 7000 Rembrandt processors, which were developed based on the updated Zen3+ architecture. AMD has unfortunately delayed the release of these new APUs, as it needed to coordinate its time window with its partners.

The Ryzen 7040 Phoenix laptop processors were first announced by AMD at CES 2023 in January, and now we’re talking about their launch on April 30, which is about four months after its official announcement. On the other hand, Intel’s Raptor Lake laptop processors have been on the market for over two months now.

As claimed, the 15-watt Phoenix series Ryzen 7 7840U processor is scheduled to be released on May 1. It is likely that AMD will release all of these processors in a one-week time window.

The interesting thing is that despite the fact that full unofficial information and even benchmarks of these processors have been released for a long time, AMD has not yet officially announced their exact specifications. AMD has announced that we are going to have 15W Zen 4 processors, but there is still no word on the release of exact specifications.

So far, we know that 9 processors from the Ryzen 7040 Phoenix family are going to be released under the H, HS, and U series. The division of these processors is based on thermal power and maximum frequency, and the number of main and graphic cores does not change in the entire family.
