After the launch of Ryzen AI 300 series for the consumer laptop segment, AMD today announced the Ryzen AI PRO 300 series for businesses. These models, as usual, features enterprise-level security features catered to large-scale organizations.
AMD Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series
The new Ryzen AI PRO 300 series is based on the same Zen 5 architecture currently powering both the Ryzen AI 300 series and the Ryzen 9000 series; in this case, the lineup will feature up to 12 cores, XDNA2 NPU, RDNA3.5-based onboard graphics, along with AMD PRO technologies designed for enhanced security.
The new XDNA2 NPU feature up to 55 TOPS of compute power, which qualifies itself for Microsoft’s new Copilot+ PC standard that enables various AI-enhanced features, such as camera background blur, local chatbots, and more.
The launch roster will first feature three chips, the Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 375, 370, and Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360. Both the Ryzen AI 9 HX chips perform the exact same with one single exception – the PRO 375 gets a 10% more powerful NPU. Performance-wise, the Ryzen AI PRO 300 series is up to 40% faster than Intel’s latest vPro-enabled models, the Core Ultra 7 165H. The AMD chip also nets 14% faster productivity performance against the same Intel chip.
AMD says over 100 systems from the likes of HP and Lenovo will feature the new lineup throughout next year, which means the free Copilot+ PC update coming this November will be available to all supported systems by then.
Pokdepinion: I wonder what will extra 5 TOPs bring in terms of the performance.
