GPD's 6-inch Win 4 gaming handheld has been updated with AMD's latest Strix Point offering, less than a year after the recent Hawk Point upgrade. Potential customers now have the option to splurge on a system with the Ryzen AI 9 370 HX APU paired with 32 GB of LPDDR5X-7500 memory and up to 2 TB of solid-state storage.

For those out of the AMD loop, here is a quick refresher on the Ryzen AI 9 370 HX - 12 cores (8x Zen 5c + 4x Zen 5), Radeon 890M iGPU with 16 RDNA 3.5 CUs, and a 35 W TDP as configured by GPD. According to GPD's claims, the Strix Point update allows the system to perform significantly better, even edging ahead of a 45 W RTX 2050 Mobile in synthetic benchmarks.Other details of the system include the aforementioned 6-inch FHD, 60 Hz, glossy display that slides out to reveal a QWERTY keyboard, an OCuLink port for fast eGPU connections, a USB4 port, a USB Type-C 3.2 Gen 2 port, a microSD slot, and a 45.6 Wh battery. The product is available on Indiegogo for an eye-watering price of 'just' $1,172. The outgoing variant with the Ryzen 7 8840U went for around $850, demonstrating the notable increase in prices for Strix Point-equipped products.
