AMD Unveils Complete Ryzen 7000 Mobile Lineup Along With A New Naming Scheme

While we still are yet to see the Ryzen 7000 CPUs in action, AMD is changing the naming scheme for its mobile-CPUs. In the mobile department, AMD due to its efficiency has always had the upper hand as compared to Intel. 

The New Naming System

All CPUs (Mobile) released post 2023 will feature AMD’s new naming scheme which is divided as follows:

  1. The 1st number determines the year in which the CPU was released. For example, the 7 in ‘7640U’ means that the CPU is from 2023 (See picture below).
  2. The 2nd number is for the market segment. For example, the 6  in ‘7650U’ means that the SKU is from the Ryzen 5 series. Any CPU below the x3xx mark will come under the umbrella of the Athlon series.
  3. The 3rd number tells users about the architecture. For example, the 4 in ‘7640U’ shows that the CPU features the Zen4 architecture.
  4. The 4th number can be one of two possibilities, it will either be a 0 or a 5. For example, the 0 in ‘7640U’ shows that the CPU is a lower-end model within its lineup. Bear in mind, this number makes a difference in specific cases only.
  5. The character at the end specifies the form factor along with the TDP. For example, the U in ‘7640U’ means that the CPU will power Premium Ultra-thin laptops.

After that, we have some examples from AMD themself using the ‘new‘ naming system. From the example provided by team red, we now know that the Ryzen 9 7945HX is the highest end offering from the upcoming Dragon Range lineup featuring a 55W+ TDP.

In addition, have a look at the Ryzen 3 7420U. This is a yet-to-release CPU scheduled for 2023, however, it uses the old Zen2 architecture.
