AMD's Gorgon Point APUs Leak, Showcasing Modest Updates in Ryzen AI Lineup

The refreshed APUs feature Zen 5 cores, RDNA 3.5 GPUs, and XDNA 2 NPUs, with new SKUs targeting premium and entry-level laptops.

AMD's Gorgon Point APUs, a refresh of the Strix Point lineup, include Zen 5 CPU cores, RDNA 3.5 GPUs, and XDNA 2 NPUs for improved AI performance.
The lineup introduces new SKUs such as Ryzen AI 9 HX and Ryzen AI 3, offering higher clock speeds and targeting both high-end and budget laptops.
Performance gains are modest, with up to 10% improvement in single-thread and 12% in multi-thread tasks, according to leaked benchmarks.
AMD has confirmed that RDNA 4 GPUs will not be available for laptops, focusing instead on desktop GPUs and future architectures like UDNA.
The Gorgon Point APUs are expected to launch later in 2025, with the Medusa series featuring Zen 6 cores and FP10 sockets anticipated in 2026 or beyond.
