AMD Launches Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series Processors for Commercial AI Laptops

Intel isn’t the only chipmakers with new silicon today: AMD has announced its Ryzen AI PRO 300 series processors, which will power commercial mobile AI PCs.

“Enterprises are increasingly demanding more compute power and efficiency to drive their everyday tasks and most taxing workloads,” AMD senior vice president Jack Hyunh said. “We are excited to add the Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series, the most powerful AI processor built for business PCs, to our portfolio of mobile processors. Our third generation AI-enabled processors for business PCs deliver unprecedented AI processing capabilities with incredible battery life and seamless compatibility for the applications users depend on.”

The Ryzen AI PRO 300 series processors are the commercial siblings to the Ryzen AI 300 series chips the company released back in August. Like those processors, the Ryzen AI PRO 300 series chips are based on the Zen 5 architecture, and each model features a 50 to 55 TOPS NPU. There are three models–Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 375, HX PRO 370, and HX PRO 360–with Radeon 890M or 880M graphics and 15 to 54-watt configurable TDP.

The PRO chips expand on AMD Secure Processor, AMD Shadow Stack, and AMD Platform Secure Boot with unique security and manageability features like Cloud Bare Metal Recovery, Supply Chain Security (AMD Device Identity), and Watch Dog Timer.

HP, Lenovo, and other PC makers have announced new PCs based on these chips that will arrive by the end of the year, with more models to follow in early 2025. They will arrive with Copilot+ PC features like Recall (Preview) and Click to Do (Preview), plus security advances like the Microsoft Pluton security processor and Windows Hello Enhanced Sign-in Security (ESS).
