Details of the latest AMD processors for laptops

Not only introducing powerful AI processors, AMD also continues to "refresh" previously successful chip lines to popularize high performance on popular, low-cost laptops.

After the success of the Ryzen AI 300 series and the all-new AI Max series with Zen 5 architecture, AMD has successively launched the Ryzen 200 series, Ryzen 100 series and Ryzen 10 series to suit the lower segments. Below are all the latest AMD processors for laptops from the popular to the most high-end.

The New Era of AI: Ryzen AI 300 and AI Max Series

Ryzen AI is AMD's new line of chips that guarantee a minimum of 50 TOPS of NPU. The 300 number marks the third generation of AMD chips with an NPU (after the 7040 and 8040). This chip line uses a new CPU architecture that combines high-performance Zen 5 cores and energy-efficient Zen 5c cores, but it's worth noting that Zen 5c still supports hyperthreading.

Ryzen AI is AMD's new line of chips, ensuring a minimum NPU of 50 TOPS.

The biggest upgrade is the new XDNA 2 NPU, which delivers 50 TOPS of computing power, far exceeding Microsoft's 40 TOPS claim for the Copilot+ PC. The integrated graphics are also upgraded to RDNA 3.5 architecture. Notably, these chips drop the U/H/HS suffix, allowing manufacturers to flexibly customize TDPs from 15W to 54W, suitable for both thin and light ultrabooks and high-performance laptops.

Some notable names include Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 (12 cores/24 threads), Ryzen AI 9 365 (10 cores/20 threads), Ryzen AI 7 350 (8 cores/16 threads), Ryzen AI 5 340 (6 cores/12 threads), Ryzen AI 5 330 (4 cores/8 threads).

In addition, AMD also introduced the Ryzen AI Max series with the code name Strix Halo, which is strong in both computing power and graphics. The most advanced is the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395, which has 16 Zen 5 cores combined with Radeon 8060S integrated graphics with 40 CUs, more than enough to handle all AAA games smoothly in Full HD.

Mid-range AI segment: AMD Ryzen 200 series

The Ryzen 200 series is the new name for the very successful Ryzen 8040 "Hawk Point" series.

In terms of technology, this chip line is built on the Zen 4 architecture (4 nm process). The Ryzen 200 series is equipped with an XDNA 1 NPU that provides 16 TOPS of power. Although not powerful enough for a full Copilot+ PC experience like the 300 series, 16 TOPS is more than enough to run basic Windows AI features like Studio Effects (background blur, eye contact) smoothly and save battery. This chip line uses RDNA 3 integrated graphics for still impressive graphics power.

High-performance mainstream segment: AMD Ryzen 100 series

This is a new line of chips aimed at low-cost gaming laptops or high-performance office laptops that don't focus on AI. The Ryzen 100 series is the replacement for the old Ryzen 7000 series "Rembrandt-R".

This chip series uses the successful and powerful Zen 3+ (6 nm) architecture, combined with an integrated RDNA 2 GPU. The biggest difference compared to the 200 series is that the Ryzen 100 series does not have an NPU at all. This is the choice for those who need good CPU and iGPU performance at a reasonable price but do not care about new AI features.

Some notable names in the product line include Ryzen 7 170 (8 cores/16 threads, 45 W), Ryzen 7 160 (8 cores/16 threads, 28 W) which are still more than enough for a smooth and stable gaming and office experience.

Student and low-cost office segment: AMD Ryzen 10 series

In the popular segment for students and offices, AMD introduced the Ryzen 10 Series, replacing the 7020 "Mendocino-R" line.

This chip line is built on the Zen 2 architecture launched in 2019 but is still powerful enough for basic tasks. The Ryzen 10 series uses RDNA 2 integrated graphics and is manufactured on a 6nm process that is still energy-optimized. Similar to the 100 series, the Ryzen 10 series also does not have an NPU.

The AMD Ryzen 10 series will include Ryzen 5 40 and Ryzen 5 30 products, both of which have 4 cores/8 threads, suitable for low-cost laptops, mainly serving basic learning needs, web surfing and office applications.

Above are all of AMD's latest laptop processors as of the end of 2025, each processor targets a different segment, meeting a variety of user needs.
