With the introduction of the new Ryzen 8000 HX series, AMD is once again raising the performance level in the field of mobile high-performance processors. The new chips not only promise exceptional performance for gaming notebooks, but are also aimed at content creators who require maximum computing power in a mobile format. This is made possible by AMD’s advanced “Zen 4” architecture in combination with modern 5nm manufacturing technology.
The new generation specifically addresses the growing need for powerful yet energy-efficient processor solutions for premium notebooks that combine both graphics performance and computing power.
- Up to 16 cores and 32 threads for top mobile performance
- Integrated Radeon 610M graphics with RDNA 2 architecture
- Support for DDR5 RAM and PCIe 5.0 for maximum bandwidth
- Designed for gaming, creative work and intensive multitasking
More computing power on the go
The Ryzen 8000 HX processors bring the power of desktop CPUs to portable formats. The flagship model Ryzen 9 8945HX, for example, offers up to 16 cores and 32 threads with a boost clock of up to 5.4 GHz – ideal for resource-intensive applications such as AAA gaming, 3D rendering or video editing. The generous cache of up to 80 MB also contributes to the high reaction speed.
This mobile performance class is particularly suitable for users who are often on the move but do not want to compromise on performance and workflow. Developers, streamers or professional users also benefit from the ability to handle complex tasks without a stationary workstation.
Advanced architecture and platform compatibility
The basis of the 8000 HX series is AMD’s proven “Zen 4” microarchitecture, which is manufactured in an efficient 5nm process. In combination with DDR5 memory and PCIe® 5.0, it opens up new possibilities in terms of data transfer rates, energy efficiency and multitasking capability.
This combination not only ensures sustainable future-proofing, but also extremely responsive system behavior – both in gaming and in the productivity sector. Thanks to the platform support, manufacturers can also scale flexibly and develop customized notebooks for a wide range of requirements.
Graphics and efficiency combined
Although the target group is likely to mainly use notebooks with a discrete GPU, the integrated Radeon 610M graphics, based on the RDNA 2 architecture, offers solid basic features. It enables smooth video playback, simple graphics editing and the use of multiple displays – without having to immediately rely on dedicated graphics solutions.
| Model | Cores / Threads | Boost / Base Frequency | Total Cache | Graphics Model | cTDP | Graphics Cores |
| Ryzen™ 9 8945HX | 16C / 32T | Up to 5.4 / 2.5 GHz | 80MB | Radeon™ 610M | 55-75W | 2 |
| Ryzen™ 9 8940HX | 16C / 32T | Up to 5.3 / 2.4 GHz | 80MB | Radeon™ 610M | 55-75W | 2 |
| Ryzen™ 7 8840HX | 12C / 24T | Up to 5.1 / 2.9 GHz | 76MB | Radeon™ 610M | 45-75W | 2 |
| Ryzen™ 7 8745HX | 8C / 16T | Up to 5.1 / 3.6 GHz | 40MB | Radeon™ 610M | 45-75W | 2 |
With a configurable TDP range between 45 and 75 watts, the power consumption can be flexibly adjusted. This means more efficiency in everyday use and longer battery runtimes without compromising performance too much. This is a particularly relevant factor for hybrid work and gaming setups.
Conclusion: Future-proof power for mobile elite systems
The AMD Ryzen 8000 HX series sets new standards for mobile processors. It combines a high core count, modern architecture, flexible platform compatibility and integrated graphics in a powerful package. It is therefore clearly aimed at users who demand maximum performance combined with high mobility.
The processors are available immediately and will be installed in a large number of upcoming high-end notebooks. The Ryzen 8000 HX series is a future-proof solution for those who don’t want to do without desktop performance on the move.
