Unleash the Power: AMD Renames Strix Halo to Ryzen AI Max 300 Series – What You Need to Know
AMD Ryzen AI Max 300 Series Processors: Strix Halo Unveiled
We will launch the Zen 5 processor architecture, the Ryzen AI 300 series of processors codenamed Strix Point, in 2024, and then there will be the Ryzen AI Max 300 series with the same Zen 5 processor architecture, codenamed Strix Halo.
Ryzen AI Max 300 Series Processors: Key Features
It is currently confirmed that the Ryzen AI Max 300 Strix Halo series processors will have three products:
- Ryzen AI Max+ 395: 16C (Zen 5), 40 CU (RDNA 3.5)
- Ryzen AI Max 390: 12C (Zen 5), 40 CU (RDNA 3.5)
- Ryzen AI Max 385: 8C (Zen 5), 32 CU (RDNA 3.5)
Related information was provided by netizens on China’s Weibo @Golden Pig Upgrade Pack Reveal.
Processor Architecture and Performance
The Ryzen AI Max+ 395 from the Strix Halo processor series will use each CCD and provide an 8-core processor, which means this product will have 2 CCDs. If you follow this logic, the 8-core Ryzen AI Max 385 will use a single CCD.
GPU Architecture and Performance
Furthermore, it can be seen that the three exhibited Ryzen AI Max 300 processors use the RDNA 3.5 GPU architecture and their Compute Units are no less than 32. In principle, such configurations are superior to the Ryzen AI 300 Strix Point-series processors.
Memory and Workstation Capabilities
The information exposed also mentions that Strix Halo allows users to convert memory on the platform to be used by the iGPU. Among them, the usable capacity reaches 96 GB. When combined with ROCm, the platform can be transformed into a small workstation.
