AMD Next-Gen Ryzen APUs For Laptops: Phoenix-H With 8 Zen 4 Cores & Raphael-H With 16 Zen 4 Cores

AMD'southward side by side-generation Ryzen APUs for high-performance laptops will include the Zen 4 powered Phoenix-H and Raphael-H family. In a tweet by Greymon55, we accept got farther confirmation that AMD is indeed going to increase the cadre counts of its mobile family to compete with Intel'southward hybrid architecture.

AMD's Adjacent-Gen Ryzen APUs For High-Operation Laptops Include Zen 4 Powered Phoenix-H With eight Cores and Raphael-H With sixteen Cores

With 12th Gen Alder Lake CPUs, Intel will gain the edge in the number of cores and threads over AMD thank you to its hybrid design which includes both Aureate Cove and Gracemont cores. AMD has plans to increase its own laptop APU core count only that upgrade isn't coming someday presently. The soon to launch Rembrandt-H Ryzen 6000 APU family is going to retain the 8 core & 16 thread count though those will be based on the brand new Zen three+ architecture on the 6nm process node so a nice bump in operation is to exist expected but Intel will be offering fries with up to xiv cores and twenty threads.

Phoenix-H
5nm Zen4
upwards to 8C 16T
TDP<40W

Raphael-H
5nm Zen4
up to 16C 32T
TDP≥45W

To tackle Intel, AMD's answer will come in the form of Raphael-H which volition be a brand new loftier-end laptop APU family designed with higher core count in heed. Nosotros have heard from multiple & well-known leakers that Raphael-H will carry upwardly to 16 cores and 32 threads. Simply by the time they launch, the family might be competing with Intel's Raptor Lake-H or fifty-fifty Meteor Lake-H CPUs & their further increased core/thread count. With that said, Zen four is expected to offer a huge spring in IPC then the battle will be neck-to-neck in the laptop segment between the two adversaries. So let's talk about what AMD has in their pockets with the Zen 4 architecture for the laptop APU segment.

AMD Phoenix-H Ryzen APUs With Up To viii Zen 4 Cores

The reason we are saying that Phoenix APUs will autumn under the AMD Ryzen 7000 banner is that it comes afterwards Rembrandt which is the successor to the Ryzen 5000 'Cezanne' APUs. If AMD doesn't skip any naming convention till Phoenix, then the lineup would about definitely fall nether the Ryzen 7000 banner however information technology volition all the same exist considered the sixth Generation Zen APU offer since Renoir is 3rd Gen and Cezanne is fourth Gen.

The Phoenix lineup of Notebook APUs will be made for the FP8 platform. AMD's Rembrandt APUs are already expected to land on the FP7 socket which means that FP7 would simply last a single APU generation. The Phoenix APUs are expected to feature the 5nm Zen four processor architecture with upwards to 8 cores and 16 threads along with an updated Navi GPU architecture. These APUs will launch around 2023 and will come up with TDPs below 40W.

AMD Raphael-H Ryzen APUs With Up To 16 Zen four Cores

AMD is expected to launch its Zen iv cadre architecture not only for the Phoenix APU lineup which will be aimed at low-power and loftier-end mobility platforms merely there's too a higher-end segment that will be known equally Raphael-H and that too will be powered by Zen 4 cores. The AMD Raphael codename has been specific to the desktop AM5 platform ever since it got leaked. But the latest rumors tell united states of america that Raphael be headed to high-performance laptops as well with Raphael-H fries.

Not much is known but we do know that but similar Rembrandt and Phoenix, the Raphael chips will also offer integrated graphics support though they might carry a lower number of CUs running at higher clocks compared to their standard APU counterparts. The Raphael-H fries are said to offer up to 16 Zen 4 cores which will put AMD's mobility lineup on par with their desktop offerings. The existing lineup is limited to 8 cores and 16 threads on laptops and that may be true for Phoenix and so information technology makes sense to launch a high core count lineup nether the Rapahel-H branding. The APUs volition get TDPs of 45W and higher up, aiming at the high-end spectrum laptop designs.
