AMD has taken solid steps in the field of commercial computing led by artificial intelligence, releasing the new Ryzen Pro 8040 series mobile processors and Ryzen Pro 8000 series desktop processors. These two cutting-edge chips are manufactured using advanced 4-nanometer technology and aim to bring unprecedented performance and efficiency to professional users.
The Ryzen Pro 8040 series is specifically optimized for laptops and mobile workstations, featuring up to eight high-performance cores and the "Zen 4" architecture. Compared to the previous generation, this processor can provide up to 30% performance improvement for high-load applications. Some models are also equipped with AMD Ryzen AI technology, which significantly enhances AI processing capabilities by combining CPU, GPU, and dedicated neural processing units (NPUs). In AI applications such as video conferencing, it outperforms Intel's Core Ultra 7 165U by 72% in speed and achieves an 84% increase in power efficiency.
In the desktop computing field, AMD's Ryzen Pro 8000 series leads the new trend of commercial desktop processors, becoming the first commercial desktop processor to enable AI functionality. With eight powerful "Zen 4" cores and leading 4-nanometer technology, these chips set new speed and efficiency benchmarks for daily business operations. For example, the performance improvement of Ryzen 7 Pro 8700G is up to 47%, and its graphics performance is three times that of Intel Core i7 14700.
In addition to outstanding performance, the Ryzen Pro series incorporates numerous advanced features aimed at simplifying IT management and enhancing security. AMD Pro technology provides enterprise-level management capabilities, enabling IT administrators to deploy systems 41% faster than competitors. At the same time, it provides robust protection against complex attacks through multi-layered security approaches across hardware, operating systems, and system levels. In addition, integration with Microsoft's Pluton security processor ensures comprehensive protection of sensitive data from chip to cloud.
With the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology, AMD actively collaborates with software vendors to optimize the AI experience on Ryzen-driven systems. By the end of 2024, it is expected that over 150 AI-driven independent software vendors will achieve seamless integration with Ryzen AI, providing users with intelligent features such as AI-assisted content creation, email management, and graphics enhancement.
Mainstream original equipment manufacturers such as HP and Lenovo have embraced AMD's latest products and announced a series of commercial desktops, workstations, and laptops equipped with Ryzen Pro processors. This collaboration aims to provide business users with products that have AI capabilities and creative abilities.
In the competition in the AI PC market, AMD is not fighting alone. NVIDIA and Intel have also launched processors focused on AI, and these three companies are vying for the predicted significant market share growth.
