AMD Introduces AMD Ryzen 9 4000H for Gaming Notebooks

This is very impressive!
If this is what Ryzen 4000-series mobile processors can manage, then how much more performance will be gained with the desktop editions, I wonder.

 

Why imagine? They've already been available. Remember - laptop models are always last-gen parts (at least for AMD). The 4000 series mobile is Zen2, just like the 3000 series desktop parts.

 

Honestly I blame AMD's naming scheme. The mobile should have just followed the desktop part numbers with an M or something.

 

I totally agree. I think it's utterly pointless for them to make it so confusing.

 

The same goes for the desktop APU. 3x00G is still GF 12nm.

I think something went wrong with AMD expectations/plans/schedules/fab availability and thus the generations got screwed up. They needed new products for the market, but only the desktop parts could keep up with the normal generational development. They just had to stretch the old process for the mobile and APU parts. This could be all just me speaking nonsense, but it could also be the truth due to AMD's still somewhat lacking financial muscles in R&D and on the other hand the fab issues with TSMC being booked full all the time and the unholy deal with GF requiring AMD to keep buying stuff from them despite GF dropping out of the race. At the end of the day, just like Intel, AMD is also selling everything they can manufacture, I believe, on the CPU side.

 

The real Question is AMD when you going to roll out 45 watt 8c/16t desktop cpus.

 

A 65w 8 core 16 thread with 4.8 turbo = 4700X hopefully.

 

Well if they made another big bang theory then we would not have to be looking at Sheldons Alienware lappy, so called running Linux (Char).
