AMD announces 2023 ‘extreme gaming laptop CPU,’ Dragon Range

AMD said Tuesday afternoon that it has made a change to its mobile CPU roadmap, adding an “extreme gaming laptop CPU” for 2023, code-named “Dragon Range.” AMD made the announcement at a small press conference following the release of its second-quarter 2022 earnings, which showed a reported record revenue of $5.9 billion on net income of $786 million. Dragon Range, like AMD’s “Raphael” desktop processor, will use the company’s Zen 4 architecture disclosed this past January at CES 2022. There, AMD announced the Ryzen 7000 processor that’s presumed to be Raphael; it will be launched before the end of 2022, AMD said. AMD Dragon Range and “Phoenix” will be AMD’s CPUs for gaming laptops in 2023. AMD describes Dragon Range as a CPU for “extreme gaming laptops” that are thicker than 20mm, and Phoenix as the CPU for slimmer thin-and-light gaming laptops, according to a slide AMD showed during the press event. Dragon Range, described as “new for 2023,” will achieve the “highest core, thread, and cache ever for a mobile gaming CPU,” AMD said. Robert Hallock, the technical marketing director for AMD, declined to discuss the specifics of the new chips. However, the slide reveals a few key details: Dragon Range will support DDR4 and PCI Express 5, and consume more than 55 watts; Phoenix will support LPDDR5 memory, PCI Express 5, and consume between 35W and 45W. In response to a question, Hallock declined to say whether the memory designations would be exclusive, or... Continue reading at 'PC World'
