AMD Ryzen 6000 arrives in laptops

AMD Ryzen 6000 comes to laptops – The biggest news was.

Undoubtedly, the presentation of the long-awaited Ryzen 6000 for laptops, the new generation of APUs that comes not only with a considerable leap in terms of performance, but also with multiple latent news to that optimization and that, apart from confirming AMD's action plan, gives us a very interesting example of what we can expect in the future on this platform.

Manufactured in six nanometers, the most important thing about the integrated circuits of the Ryzen 6000 family is that, from their hand, comes a technology long awaited in the world of laptops: RDNA 2, which marks the farewell of the very veteran Vega.

In this sense, consequently, we can expect a more than significant increase in the graphics performance of these integrated circuits compared to their predecessor, the 5000 series, a leap that our AMD quantifies as doubling the performance.

AMD Ryzen 6000 is coming to laptops – But the performance jump is not only generated in the graphics section.

As regards the tasks of the central unit of prosecution, The increase can achieve 11% in single thread, which scales up to 28% if we talk about multiple processes (multithread), thanks to the Zen 3+ core architecture that starts in laptops in this 6000 series of AMD Ryzen APUs.

However, the increase in performance of the one that comes inside would not be complete if, from its hand, the support for new technologies, which carry that optimization to the rest of the system.

In the case of the AMD Ryzen 6000 series, probably the most significant optimization is the arrival of DDR5 memory compatibility and the update of support for elements and peripherals with PCIe 4.0 and USB 4, apart from next-generation wireless connectivity with WiFi 6E.

With this combination, AMD claims to be able to get the most out of next-generation components and peripherals.

It's not all about performance, of course, AMD also worked on efficiency and, consequently, its initiative in this regard aims to ensure that, with a perfect configuration and for a specific type of use, The autonomy of much more efficient equipment could reach 24 hours.

They have also communicated iInteresting news about the AMD Ryzen 5000 series for desktop and laptops, among which the Ryzen 7 5800X3D for desktop undoubtedly stands out, built using 3D V-Cache technology, which allows vertically stacking modules of memory cache in the package, allowing a larger proportion of memory to be added without the need to increase the horizontal dimensions of the same.

In this way, AMD's presentation has brought us 13 new integrated circuits for laptops, ten of them corresponding to the Ryzen 6000 series, and another three to the 5000 family.

AMD Ryzen 6000 Series

As you can see, The focus was on the top of the range, that is, the Ryzen 9 series.

With 4 integrated 6000 series with eight cores and 16 threads, 20 megabytes of cache and that we can still divide into 2 blocks, formed by the HX variations (much more capable for overclocking) and the HS of the AMD Ryzen 9 6980 and Ryzen 9 6900, a difference you can see by checking the difference in TDP between the two variations.

Now, if we continue exclusively with the 6000 series, we can find three variations of the AMD Ryzen 7 6800 With eight cores and 16 threads, the 6800H focuses on performance, the 6800HS, which seeks a greater balance between performance and efficiency, and the Ryzen 7 6800U, which with a TDP of between 15 and 28 watts focuses on efficiency.

And to round out the 6000 series offerings, we have three variations of the AMD Ryzen 5 6600 with six cores and 12 threads: the high-performance 6600H version, the balanced Ryzen 5 6600HS, and the efficient 6600U.

Ryzen 5000 Series

But, as I have previously pointed out, tThere is also news about the 5000 series..

Specifically we are with three integrated, the Ryzen 7 5825U with eight cores and 16 threads, the Ryzen 5 5625U with six cores and 12 threads and the Ryzen 3 5425U, with 4 cores and eight threads.

These three integrated systems focus on efficiency, with a TDP of only 15 watts.

The huge novelty, as far as desktop is concerned, is, as we have already mentioned before, the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, with its overwhelming 100 megabytes of memory cache (L2+L3). Undoubtedly this colossal volume of memory will have to be substantially appreciated, and it will also allow us to assess the full real potential of Three-dimensional V-Cache.

This is commenting on the present, because we were also able to take a look at the future, and it happens that the technological has given us a preview of what we can expect in the coming months.

And undoubtedly the most important thing is the long-awaited confirmation of the Zen 4 architecture and the Ryzen 7000 series, which will be released in the second half of this year, and from whose hand it will arrive AM5, the new socket for the processors of this new generation.

The other notice is the Ryzen PRO 6000 series.

A product line where performance is combined with outstanding functionalities of security, management tools, and enterprise-grade security and reliability.

As you can infer from this, they are going to be used in systems specifically geared towards the professional field, where these features are at least as essential as performance.

His debut will be generated with the Lenovo ThinkPad Z, a portable premium business that will be launched next spring.
