AMD promised eventual “mobile gaming dominance” back in 2022, and it feels like we’re getting closer every day. Today, the company is announcing not one, not two, but three different families of chips designed to take it there, including final confirmation of the long-rumored “Strix Halo” and “Fire Range” laptop chips.

AMD has launched what one executive called “the most advanced mobile X86 processor ever created” at CES 2025: The Ryzen AI Max and AI Max+, with absolutely massive capabilities to run graphics and AI workloads.

AMD announced its Ryzen AI Max processors at CES, ushering in a new series of AMD -based AI PCs and laptops. The chipmaker also unveiled low- and midrange CPUs with AI capabilities, ensuring that buyers with different budgets have a chance to snag an AI PC. All of these chips are set to become available over the course of 2025.

The enthusiast laptop market will soon be greeted by AMD's flagship APUs codenamed "Strix Halo" under the Ryzen AI MAX Pro lineup. Likely to arrive at CES, these APUs reportedly serve as a one-stop solution for workstation laptops uniting Zen 5 cores with a powerful RDNA 3.5 iGPU (Integrated GPU) on a single chip.

AMD is targeting both low-end and high-end AI PCs at CES 2025. The company unveiled a new family of Ryzen AI Max chips meant for "halo" Copilot+ AI PCs, which will sit above existing Ryzen AI 9 systems.

AMD has a used 3D V-Cache a few times now as a way to boost gaming performance on CPUs. So what happens when AMD puts 3D V-Cache on its very best Ryzen 9000-series CPUs to date? The answer is the Ryzen 9 9900X3D and 9950X3D.

AMD has typically pushed the envelope in performance, but at CES 2025, the company is also expanding in another direction, with cheaper, lower-performance Ryzen AI 300 and even a Ryzen 200 family that the company is encouraging both consumers and commercial customers to buy.
