Earlier this year, AMD released its new Ryzen 7000 series CPUs at CES 2023. Meet the new AMD Ryzen Mobile 7040U series processors. Unlike the standard 7000 series chipsets, the “U” in AMD Ryzen 7040U processors stand for “ultra-low power”, and they are designed mainly for thin laptops and other ultra-portable devices. AMD says the Ryzen 7040U series mobile processors, based on the new Zen 4 architecture provide “more graphics power than ever before” and even offer better output compared to its rivals, Apple and Intel. AMD has announced their lineup of new mobile processers called the Ryzen 8040 codenamed Hawk Point. The AMD Ryzen 8040 processors, which will be the successors to the Phoenix chipsets, consist of the 8040HS APU and its little brother, the 8040U. The Ryzen 8040 come with a built-in NPU based on AMD's XDNA, but other than that, they are similar to the Ryzen 7040 such as using a 4nm TSMC process. “We’re so excited to see Ryzen 8040 Series processor-powered devices come to life in the Windows ecosystem and can’t wait to see what developers and customers do with all of this innovation.” AMD have also stated that the Ryzen 8040 processors will be launched in the first quarter of 2024.
