Breaking New Ground

Before AMD Ryzen™ processors were introduced in 2017, 4-core CPUs based on double-digit node processes were the market standard. Customers now enjoy desktop and mobile processors that offer up to dozens of cores and threads, powerful integrated graphics, and more cutting-edge technologies that drive the most demanding work, games, and creative applications in use today.

AMD Ryzen processors have led the market in a variety of ways since they were first introduced. Here are just a few ways in which users are enjoying a better PC experience than ever with AMD processors.

AMD Ryzen™ Processors: Evolution of Expectations

In 2020, AMD introduced a range of AMD Ryzen™ and AMD Ryzen™ PRO processors based on a 7nm process, surpassing competitor products in node size. This year, AMD introduced to market AMD Ryzen™ 7040 Series processors, the world’s most advanced x86 processors, and based on 4nm technology.1

This technology sets new expectations from customers, who can enjoy exceptional performance, power efficiency, and battery life--and with a world-first x86 AI engine included in AMD Ryzen and Ryzen PRO 7040 Series processors, AMD continues to deliver even more leadership technologies to users.2

AMD and AI: The World’s First Integrated AI Engine in an x86 Processor2

Continuing the pervasive AI strategy, AMD is the first company to transform the traditional x86 PCs we know today with a dedicated AI engine, delivering AMD Ryzen™ AI to market.3 AMD Ryzen AI will reshape the way business users work and communicate. It starts with providing immersive AI collaboration experiences on Microsoft Teams and other leading video conferencing applications with incredible battery life advantages, multitasking speed, and quiet operation.

With nearly 50 AI-enabled systems already in the market, AMD is leading the AI PC era with existing products and plans for exciting new developments in the future, unlocking AI-powered features such as Windows Studio Effects for customers.

Leadership in Performance and Efficiency

When it comes to getting the most out of systems, AMD doesn’t hold back. While competitors are introducing different core types to achieve better efficiency, AMD is delivering up to 8 high-performance cores on mobile products with TDPs ranging from 15W to 45W, offering incredible results for customers across the market. 

AMD delivers:

  • Up to 58% better multithreaded performance4
  • Leadership battery life of up to 14.5 hours – up to 17 percent better than the competition5,6
  • Up to 2x the graphical performance against competitor products, offering customers the world’s fastest integrated graphics3

No compromises or shortcuts necessary.

AMD will continue to push boundaries, advancing the market with groundbreaking new technologies and performance leadership, ensuring AMD customers get the best possible performance and experiences when they opt for AMD products. When your customers ask for leadership performance for work, gaming, or creative, be sure to introduce them to AMD Ryzen and Ryzen PRO processors.

  1. Based on a smaller node size of the AMD processor for an x86 platform, as of September 2023. GD-203
  2. As of May 2023, AMD Ryzen AI was the first available dedicated AI engine on an x86 Windows processor, where 'dedicated AI engine' is defined as an AI engine that has no function other than to process AI inference models and is part of the x86 processor die. For detailed information, please check: https://www.amd.com/en/products/ryzen-ai. PHX-3
  3. Ryzen™ AI is defined as the combination of a dedicated AI engine, AMD Radeon™ graphics engine, and Ryzen processor cores that enable AI capabilities. OEM and ISV enablement is required, and certain AI features may not yet be optimized for Ryzen AI processors. Ryzen AI is compatible with all AMD Ryzen 7040 series processors except the Ryzen 5 7540U and Ryzen 3 7440U. Please check with your system manufacturer for feature availability prior to purchase. GD-220a.
  4. Testing as of 7/13/23 by BOXX Technologies, commissioned by AMD, utilizing Dell Latitude 5440 with Intel Core i7 1365U processor, Intel Integrated graphics, 16GB RAM, 512GB NVMe SSD and Windows 11 Pro, Dell Latitude 5440 with Intel Core i7 1370P processor, Intel Integrated graphics, 16GB RAM, 1TB NVMe SSD and Windows 11 Pro, and Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 4 with Ryzen 7 PRO 7840U processor, Integrated Radeon Graphics, 16GB RAM, 1TB NVMe SSD, Windows 11 Pro. Using the following tests: Geekbench V5 Single core, Cinebench R23 n-thread, Blender bench CPU-Classroom, Passmark 11 Overall, and 3DMark Night Raid. PC manufacturers may vary configurations yielding different results. Results may vary. PHXP-41
  5. Battery life testing by Lenovo. All battery life claims are approximate. Battery life based on MobileMark 25 testing results using a Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 4 with AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 7840U processor with WUXGA Low Power display (non-touch) and 52.5Wh battery set to best power efficiency mode @250nits brightness. Actual battery life will vary based on several factors, including, but not limited to: product configuration and usage, software, operating conditions, wireless functionality, power management settings, screen brightness and other factors. The maximum capacity of the battery will naturally decrease with time and use. AMD has not independently tested or verified the battery life claim. For more information see https://psref.lenovo.com/Product/ThinkPad/ThinkPad_T14_Gen_4_AMD.  PHXP-43
  6. Based on internal testing by AMD as of 10/4/23. Battery life results evaluated by operation of a nine-participant Microsoft Teams video conference on battery. System configuration for AMD/Intel systems run from power level 100% > 5% @150nits brightness and power mode set to "power efficiency." System configuration for Ryzen™ 7 7840U: Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 4, AMD Radeon Graphics, 16GB RAM, 1TB NVMe SSD, Windows 11 Pro and 52Wh battery. System config for Intel core i7 1370P, Dell Latitude 5440, 16GB RAM and 1TB NVMe SSD, Intel integrated Graphics, Windows 11 Pro and 54 Wh battery.
