Tune in to watch CEO Lisa Su discuss her company's AI plans.

AIAIOOOOOOOOOOh

But really, we can expect to hear about Granite Ridge, Strix Point, or both.

Same as previous leaks pointed out. More to come.....

I'm more interested in the Strix Point Ryzen AI lineup though. They haven't mentioned the MSRP of these SKUs yet....

Here it comes.

+16% IPC, better than Zen 4 if accurate. Going from Zen 2 to Zen 5 is +56% IPC. Sonoma Valley looking good.

Thanks for the cringe branding. Maybe it's only for the Ryzen 9.

The 10-core cuts two of the Zen 5c cores, not the higher clocked Zen 5. Nice.

Let's see 890M graphics compared to 780M plz.

VideoCardz lists 15-45W configurable TDP for these two Strix Point SKUs, instead of 35-54W.

9600 non-X theory busted.

Strix Point branding seems confusing as before. Product differentiation for an average consumer is not gonna be easy, unless they first dig into the specs of each SKU, especially the core count.

Too bad only 2 Mobile processors were announced.

Both are Ryzen AI 9 SKUs, and the only naming differentiator seems to be the HX moniker for now. These product codenames also don't tell anything about the iGPU specs, be it 890M, or 880M, or how many CUs they sport.

Ryzen AI 9 HX 370
Ryzen AI 9 365.

AM5 socket commitment extended to "2027+".

RDNA 3+ became RDNA 3.5 again lol.

XDNA2 gains "Block FP16" capability, with the accuracy of FP16 and the performance of INT8 (they claim).
