AMD unveils new chips for laptops, desktops, and gaming handhelds at CES 2025

At CES 2025 in Las Vegas, AMD unveiled a slew of new chips destined for devices ranging from desktops to gaming handhelds.

All chips in the series have a dedicated neural processing unit (NPU) to accelerate certain AI workloads, like running a text-summarizing language model or Windows 11’s AI-powered image editor. Ryzen 300 series chips, which will come to market in Q1/Q2 2025, pack between 6 and 8 cores clocked at up to 5GHz, and deliver “24-plus-hour” battery life in the best-case scenario (e.g. light work only).
