The World’s Most Advanced Processors for Business PC Laptops1
There’s no doubt that work styles have changed dramatically in the past couple of years — both in terms of where work is done and the way we connect with one another. Hybrid work is the new normal, creating new priorities and demands for business PCs.
Workers bounce from meeting room to home to coffee shop hoping they don't have to plug in somewhere in between. Meetings over video conference throughout the day are even more commonplace than meeting in person, demanding use of remote collaboration tools and productivity apps simultaneously. And security threats are escalating.
As a result, when designing the new AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors, AMD built for the evolving way businesses and people work today — with three key goals:
- Support the highest level of performance, while simultaneously extending battery life longer than ever before — allowing workers to be productive for longer.
- Deliver premium mobile experiences for professionals, whether it’s studio-quality videoconferencing or blazing fast connectivity for data and devices.
- Provide a modern, multi-layered enterprise-class security to protect vital information wherever workers roam.
Now, with AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors, businesses get the best of all worlds: uncompromising performance and premium mobile experiences for work teams, with the enterprise-class security, manageability, and reliability that business demands.
Advancing performance leadership to meet today’s remote working challenges
Productivity and remote collaboration are here to stay. Now, AMD Ryzen™ PRO processors address the new way of working by delivering new features and technology that drive premium experiences on premium business platforms.
Based on advanced 6nm process technology for business notebooks, AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors offer up to 8 high-performance “Zen3+” cores that deliver uncompromising performance — even in thin and light form factors. As multitasking workloads increase, these high-performance cores deliver definitive leadership across benchmarks for the business productivity applications users rely on, like Microsoft® Office. Simply put, it’s the ultimate processor for productivity in an ultrathin Microsoft® Windows® laptop, with impressive results including:
- Up to 45% better productivity performance than competition2
- Up to 29% better multitasking performance than competition3
- Up to 18% better GPU performance than competition4

Collaboration on the move with a premium mobile experience
Modern work goes far beyond word processing and spreadsheets. For the hybrid workforce joining meetings from anywhere, next-gen integrated graphics plus new AI-based audio noise-cancellation enables studio-quality conferencing and an extended battery life that reduces the worry of running out of power in the middle of an important meeting.4
- Up to 26 hours in a premium OEM laptop without plugging in.5 AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors get stunningly long battery life — up to 45% longer battery life for Microsoft Teams conferencing — thanks to Intelligent Power Management that provides maximum efficiency for productivity and mobility.6
- Vivid images, smooth streaming, and seamless playback. AMD Ryzen™ 6000 Series processors for mobile offer the world’s most powerful integrated graphics for PCs.7
- Fewer auditory distractions. New AI-based audio processing enhances video conferencing, allowing immersive collaboration, so you can focus on the work at hand.
- Next-gen connectivity. For the very best experience with data and devices, AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors support blazing-fast Wi-Fi® 6E networking, long range HD-quality Bluetooth® audio, and universal docking with high-bandwidth 40 Gbps USB4®.8,9
Count on enterprise-grade security, manageability, and reliability
A fast-paced business needs devices that keep up with ever-evolving security threats and complex fleet management. By working closely with Microsoft and OEMs, AMD enables and complements their enterprise security features. AMD PRO technologies delivers a complete set of features that are essential for the modern business. With AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors, you can take advantage of cutting-edge security features, robust manageability tools, and enterprise-grade stability and reliability.
Through a modern, multi-layered approach to security, AMD processors help protect your sensitive data from today’s sophisticated attacks and avoid downtime. AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors are the first x86 processors to integrate the Microsoft Pluton security processor, a chip-to-cloud security technology designed and updated by Microsoft, that strengthens Windows 11 devices with continuous protection for user identity, data, and apps.12, 13
Keeping up with the management of a fleet of laptop PCs is no small task. AMD PRO manageability is a robust feature set that simplifies deployment, imaging, and everyday management.14 Now it also includes an integrated AMD Manageability Processor for simple, seamless, wireless manageability.15
Buying AMD means buying reliability, too, because all AMD Ryzen PRO processors come with the quality, reliability, and longevity to deliver the long-term consistency IT managers need to simplify planning and make smart investments for future-ready computing. With 18 months of planned software stability, 24 months of planned availability, and enterprise-grade quality assurance, you can be confident that your investment in systems based on AMD Ryzen™ PRO 6000 processors is a smart choice.

Empower workers with a stellar experience — in the office, at home, or on the go
With innovations throughout an expanded product stack, AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors are optimized to deliver studio-quality videoconferencing, power-efficient productivity, and creativity on the go. Workers can count on stunningly long battery life and blazing-fast connectivity for data and devices, too, making it easier than ever to meet the demands of the modern way of working.
