The Ryzen 7040HS series, codename “Phoenix”, is the first Zen 4 architecture mobile APU for laptops. (The Ryzen 7045HX “Dragon Range” is based on desktop versions of Zen 4.) Aside from that, it features the very first dedicated AI block aptly named Ryzen AI, powered by the new XDNA architecture. Pair it with RDNA3 graphics with up to Radeon 780M and a TSMC N4 manufacturing process, this is the most advanced Ryzen chip AMD has produced so far.
