ASUS's new notebook equipped with AMD Ryzen 9 7940HX made a splash at the CES 2024 show and attracted attention

At the recent CES 2024 exhibition, Intel released the highly anticipated 14th generation Core HX series processors, specially designed for gaming laptops. Although AMD did not release new products at this exhibition, observations show that they are also actively preparing.

ASUS’ latest TUF GAMING A16 2024 laptop is a good example. What is different from the past is that this model no longer uses AMD graphics cards, but is upgraded to the more powerful RTX 4070. What is striking is that it is also equipped with a new AMD processor-Ryzen 9 7940HX. According to information, the processor is equipped with a powerful configuration of 16 cores and 32 threads, 64MB L3 cache, and a maximum frequency of 5.2GHz. This makes the TUF GAMING A16 a very powerful laptop.

With the existing flagship Ryzen 9 Compared with 7945HX, the frequency of the new processor is only 200MHz lower. However, it is still unknown whether its base frequency will be lowered from 2.5GHz. In addition, AMD's naming rules seem to have some abnormalities on this processor. According to convention, the products in 2024 should belong to the Ryzen 8000 series, but this processor is still classified as the Ryzen 7000 series. Does this mean there will be Ryzen 9 in the future? The emergence of 7840HX? Or will AMD rename it Ryzen 9 8940HX?

According to market statistics, only 7 brands have launched 31 gaming laptops based on the AMD Ryzen 7045HX series. In contrast, only the ROG Magic 7 Plus Super Edition uses the top-end Ryzen 9 7945HX3D technology. However, with the successive launch of new AMD processors, this market structure is expected to undergo new changes in the future. More brands and models are expected to enter the market, providing consumers with more choices and competitiveness. This will make the market more diverse and further increase the share of AMD processors in the gaming field.
