In Geekbench, the 16-core AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 “Strix Halo” APU beats the Ryzen 9 7945HX3D.
Information on the high-end Strix Halo APUs with integrated graphics, which are reported to be powerful enough for the system to not require discrete graphics at all, has been keenly anticipated by enthusiasts like ourselves ever when AMD unveiled Strix Point. A new Geekbench leak reveals the CPU performance of the Ryzen AI+ Max 395 APU, which has a 16-core configuration made up entirely of Zen 5 cores, as opposed to Strix Point, which has a mix of Zen 5 and the smaller Zen 5c cores. Leaks about the upcoming performance mobile APU lineup have been leaking steadily. And the figures are so profitable, oh dear.
In the single-core category, the APU scored 2,849 points, and in the multicore category, it scored an incredible 20,708 points. This result is far better than AMD’s current top-end mobile product, the Ryzen 9 7945HX3D, which receives about 16,900 points in the multicore test, as Videocardz accurately points out. However, with about 2,900 points, the Ryzen 9 7945HX3D does have an advantage in single-core. However, the ROG Flow Z13 laptop in which the APU was installed is probably still undergoing testing, so it’s possible that the finished product will have even greater performance. Nevertheless, with 3,800 single-core and an astounding 25,000 multicore scores, the Apple M4 Max SoC is still in a class by itself. It will only be a few weeks until the Ryzen AI Max+ lineup is out and in our hands, with CES 2025 rapidly approaching.
