A new technological era is on the horizon for AMD, which announces a substantial update to its central processing and graphics units in 2025. With more robust features and increased performance, these advancements promise to redefine the gaming experience. users in terms of computational power and graphics.
Expanded horizons for AMD APUs
Taking a bold leap forward, AMD has revealed details of its next generations of APUs, with a particular focus on the Krackan Point and Hawk Point series. The first, Ryzen AI 300 series, will be distinguished by extensive AI integration, offering up to 50 TOPS of dedicated performance via the integrated XDNA 2 engine. With up to 8 cores and 16 threads distributed between Zen 5 and Zen 5C architectures, as well as 8 RDNA 3.5 compute unitsversatility is there. Memory will also be improved, supporting formats LPDDR5X-8000 et DDR5-5600while the L3 cache will reach 16 MB.
At the same time, the Hawk Point Ryzen 200 series will specialize more on the integration of cores Zen 4. It will also offer 8 cores, but will increase graphics performance with up to 12 RDNA 3 computing units. These components target a range of users demanding high performance without compromise.
New platform and advancements in Strix Halo
The Strix Halo platform, scheduled for launch in 2024, is particularly fascinating. She will embark until 16 courses Zen 5 et 64 Mo L3 cachesupported by a formidable computing capacity of 60 TOPS pour l’IA thanks to the integrated XDNA 2 engine. For fans of breathtaking graphics, the Strix Halo is equipped with up to 40 RDNA 3.5 computing units, configured to support LPDDR5X-8000 memories.
Compared to previous platforms, the innovation lies in a memory controller of 256 bits and support for 16 PCIe Gen4 lanesthus amplifying the scope of possibilities for users ranging from video game designers to AI engineers, seeking rapid and effective answers to complex problems.
The diversity of performance also extends to platforms based on the Fire Range, notably offered for the Ryzen 9. These innovations are also ready for a future where GPUs will be based on the Navi 4X architecture, promising a revolution in visual experience with models such as Navi 48 and Navi 44.
In terms of performance, AMD CPUs continue to push the limits with configurations up to 16 hearts for the most hardcore models. Whether you're a die-hard gamer, content creator or simply passionate about new technologies, these updates mean access to a world of previously unparalleled virtualized opportunities.
Furthermore, the promise of power consumption adapted to different configurations, from 15W to 130W, demonstrates a compromise between raw power and energy efficiency. Adapting to the varying needs of users with a conscious respect for the environment.
Through these advancements, AMD isn't just keeping up; the company is redefining industry standards, ushering in an era of improved performance and efficiency for technology enthusiasts everywhere.
