- New AMD Ryzen PRO and AMD Athlon PRO powered commercial notebooks from HP and Lenovo provide the power-efficient performance, silicon-level security features, and battery life to get business users through the work day*
AMD has announced the latest additions to its PRO processor lineup: the 2nd Gen AMD Ryzen PRO mobile processors with Radeon Vega Graphics and AMD Athlon PRO mobile processors with Radeon Vega Graphics.
Providing commercial notebook users with power-efficient performance, state-of-the-art security features, and commercial-grade reliability and manageability, these new processors enable global PC manufacturers to create a wide range of business systems, from premium professional notebooks to everyday productivity notebooks. Initial commercial systems from HP and Lenovo are expected this quarter with other original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and further platform updates anticipated later in 2019.
“Modern PC users expect the experience between professional and personal to be imperceptible, and business notebook users want to utilise the latest modern features including 3D modelling, video editing, multi-display setups while multitasking securely, to get more done,” said Saeid Moshkelani, Senior VP and GM, Client Compute, AMD.
“With AMD Ryzen PRO and Athlon PRO mobile processors, AMD delivers the right performance, features, and choice to OEMs and commercial users, combined with the productivity, protection, and professional features needed to ensure seamless deployment throughout an organisation.”
Built on 12 nm manufacturing technology, the new AMD Ryzen PRO 3000 Series mobile processors deliver best-in-class performance** and increase productivity by offering up to 16% more multi-threading processor performance than competition***.
Specifically, the new AMD Ryzen PRO mobile processors deliver:
- Up to 12 hours of general office use or up to 10 hours of video playback*,
- Up to 14% faster content creation**** and accelerated everyday office applications with integrated Radeon Vega graphics, from 3D modelling to video editing,
- Security on all Ryzen PRO processors with AMD’s security co-processor built into the silicon,
and
- Eighteen months of image stability, 24 months of processor availability, commercial grade quality, enterprise-class manageability, and a 36-month limited warranty to system manufacturers.
AMD is also offering Zen-based***** Athlon PRO mobile processors, bringing a greater choice of mobile computing experiences across the full budget spectrum.
