According to AMD’s newly-released roadmap for laptop CPU, AMD will pair their mobiles with refreshed Zen 3+ in 2022. AMD’s CPU 6000-series for mobiles in 2022 carries the 6nm lithography process, and this is why it’s called Zen 3+, as the predecessor Zen 3 includes a 7nm-node CPU. How exactly will this chip make a difference for AMD? At the outset, if AMD continues their partnership with TSMC, it’s admitted that there would not be as many renovations of Zen 3+ (in comparison with Zen 3) as expected. TSMC’s 7nm and 6nm nodes are not clearly distinct in performance, and Rembrandt is not even a fresh product lineup to strict eyes. However, we should not overlook the delicate retouches made by the US-based manufacturer. Chief among them are the well-known RDNA 2 graphics cores, while the Ryzen 5000 mobile employs old Vega counterparts. This integration would promise a well-boosted performance for upcoming gaming laptops running AMD’s CPUs. Specifically, the new graphics cores offer better
