Today, AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) announced its third generation commercial AI mobile processors, designed specifically to transform business productivity with Copilot+ features including live captioning and language translation in conference calls and advanced AI image generators. The new Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series processors deliver industry-leading AI compute, with up to three times the AI performance than the previous generation, and offer uncompromising performance for everyday workloads. Enabled with AMD PRO Technologies, the Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series processors offer world-class security and manageability features designed to streamline IT operations and ensure exceptional ROI for businesses.

Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series processors feature new AMD "Zen 5" architecture, delivering outstanding CPU performance, and are the world's best line up of commercial processors for Copilot+ enterprise PCs. Laptops equipped with Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series processors are designed to tackle business' toughest workloads, with the top-of-stack Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 375 offering up to 40% higher performance and up to 14% faster productivity performance compared to Intel's Core Ultra 7 165U. With the addition of XDNA 2 architecture powering the integrated NPU, AMD Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series processors offer a cutting-edge 50+ NPU TOPS (Trillions of Operations Per Second) of AI processing power, exceeding Microsoft's Copilot+ AI PC requirements and delivering exceptional AI compute and productivity capabilities for the modern business. Built on a 4 nm process and with innovative power management, the new processors deliver extended battery life ideal for sustained performance and productivity on the go.



"Enterprises are increasingly demanding more compute power and efficiency to drive their everyday tasks and most taxing workloads. We are excited to add the Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series, the most powerful AI processor built for business PCs, to our portfolio of mobile processors," said Jack Huynh, senior vice president and general manager, Computing and Graphics Group at AMD. "Our third generation AI-enabled processors for business PCs deliver unprecedented AI processing capabilities with incredible battery life and seamless compatibility for the applications users depend on."

AMD Continues to Expand Commercial OEM Ecosystem
OEM partners continue to expand their commercial offerings with new PCs powered by Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series processors, delivering well-rounded performance and compatibility to their business customers. With industry leading TOPS, the next generation of Ryzen processor-powered commercial PCs are set to expand the possibilities of local AI processing with Microsoft Copilot+. OEM systems powered by Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series are expected to be on shelf starting later this year.

"Microsoft's partnership with AMD and the integration of Ryzen AI PRO processors into Copilot+ PCs demonstrate our joint focus on delivering impactful AI-driven experiences for our customers. The Ryzen AI PRO's performance, combined with the latest features in Windows 11, enhances productivity, efficiency, and security," said Pavan Davuluri, corporate vice president, Windows+ Devices, Microsoft. "Features like Improved Windows Search, Recall, and Click to Do make PCs more intuitive and responsive. Security enhancements, including the Microsoft Pluton security processor and Windows Hello Enhanced Sign-in Security, help safeguard customer data with advanced protection. We're proud of our strong history of collaboration with AMD and are thrilled to bring these innovations to market."

"In today's AI-powered era of computing, HP is dedicated to delivering powerful innovation and performance that revolutionizes the way people work," said Alex Cho, president of Personal Systems, HP. "With the HP EliteBook X Next-Gen AI PC, we are empowering modern leaders to push boundaries without compromising power or performance. We are proud to expand our AI PC lineup powered by AMD, providing our commercial customers with a truly personalized experience."

"Lenovo's partnership with AMD continues to drive AI PC innovation and deliver supreme performance for our business customers. Our recently announced ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 AMD, powered by the latest AMD Ryzen AI PRO 300 Series processors, showcases the strength of our collaboration," said Luca Rossi, president, Lenovo Intelligent Devices Group. "This device offers outstanding AI computing power, enhanced security, and exceptional battery life, providing professionals with the tools they need to maximize productivity and efficiency. Together with AMD, we are transforming the business landscape by delivering smarter, AI-driven solutions that empower users to achieve more."

New PRO Technologies Features Build Upon Leadership Security and Management Features
In addition to AMD Secure Processor, AMD Shadow Stack and AMD Platform Secure Boot, AMD has expanded its PRO Technologies lineup with new security and manageability features. Processors equipped with PRO Technologies will now come standard with Cloud Bare Metal Recovery, allowing IT teams to seamlessly recover systems via the cloud ensuring smooth and continuous operations; Supply Chain Security (AMD Device Identity), a new supply chain security function, enabling traceability across the supply chain; and Watch Dog Timer, building on existing resiliency support with additional detection and recovery processes.

Additional AI-based malware detection is available via PRO Technologies with select ISV partners. These new security features leverage the integrated NPU to run AI-based security workloads without impacting day-to-day performance.

It is funny to see how AI-label madness continues. Didn't you see AI-screwdriver, or AI-toothbrush?

What is funny is that the EPYC launch article has people reacting and this one about a product most of us are far more likely to come in contact with is being mostly ignored.

And as usual, Dell is missing, with no Latitude or Optiplex with Ryzen.

I honestly thought that intel didn’t had any bribe money left.

I wonder if these come with ECC memory support. The PRO series usually does, but who knows. Actually, I'm still a bit uncertain if "non-EPYC" ZEN5 supports ECC. I guess, we'll find out in time.

For a very long time, AMD has included ECC support on their consumer boards, but never list it as supported.

Sadly, only way to know is by trying or waiting for someone to do so.
Maybe Wendell has tested this already or will, depending on the board.

On some boards, SUPPORT ECC maybe means you can insert the ECC memory module and run, but cannot enable ECC function for error detection or correction.

I was specifically referring to the APU versions. Those are the only Ryzen CPUs that (at least until now) only support ECC in the PRO versions. That said, I'm also still not sure if the "normal" Ryzen 9000 desktop versions support it. Reason for this is that AMD have launched their socket AM5 EPYC line, so they might want to go the Intel route of fusing off functionality. I hope they don't, though.

EDIT: Seems the Ryzen 9000 series does support ECC (at the bottom of the Connectivity section).

During last a couple of years I've left more than 10 feedbacks on a Dell's Contact Us webpage with requests for a broader support of AMD CPUs.
