New leaks arrive regarding iGPU performance
AMD Radeon 890M. Specifically, this information comes from the well-known Chinese leaker “Golden Pig”, which reveals the performance of this GPU, and what we can expect from a top-of-the-range AMD Ryzen AI 9 300 APU. According to reports, this information comes directly from anonymous sources
inside MSI. Where they revealed the approximate performance that a Ryzen AI 9 will have at the CPU and GPU level.
Remember that the AMD Radeon 890M is the new top-of-the-range GPU. It is not the replacement for the Radeon 780M, and the 890M is
the number of cores has increased, while the Radeon 880M does maintain the same amount compared to the Radeon 780M. In this way, below we give you a brief summary of what we can expect from this GPU in terms of performance.
The AMD Radeon 890M will have a performance very similar to that of an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050
Although we have seen that at the IPC level the architecture
RDNA 3.5 It offers practically no improvement, the Radeon 890M compensates for this by increasing the cores (1,024 vs 768). Just last week we saw that this iGPU in Geekbench was shown to offer
39% more performance regard to the Radeon 780M. Although of course, to achieve this improvement, they have had to add 33% more cores to the GPU. This makes it clear that the RDNA 3.5 architecture offers practically no performance improvements. Now, at least a great improvement is expected in terms of energy efficiency.
Now, according to Golden Pig leaks, an unknown AMD Ryzen AI 9 300 Series APU, with this GPU, offers performance of
+3,600 points in 3DMark Time Spy. This practically implies performing as an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 with 2,048 CUDA Cores (+/-3,700 points). Now, the RTX 2050 is a dedicated GPU with an energy consumption of 50W, that would be more than what this GPU itself consumes together with its CPU. Out of the box, this APU is designed to operate
at 28W. Now, it has a customizable TDP between 15 and 54W.
And this is the performance that we will have at the CPU level
At the CPU level, there is talk of a score of +2,000 points in single-core and 20,000+ multi-core in Cinebench R23. To be exact, we are talking about better performance in terms of the CPU
around 20%. This can quickly translate into a new generation of portable consoles with AMD hardware truly powerful and more efficient. And yes, efficiency is crucial when a device is attached to a battery.
No specific model is indicated, so we could be facing a AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. This APU has already been seen in many laptops that will debut next month. These offer a configuration of 12 cores and 24 threads
processing under the architecture AMD Zen 5. Now, of these 12 physical cores, 4x are high performance (Zen 5) and 8x high efficiency (Zen 5c). Additionally, they also include the Radeon 890M iGPU with 16 CUs (1,024 Stream Processors) at a frequency of 2.90 GHz to maximize performance.
