AMD launches Ryzen PRO 7000 series processors for laptops and desktops

Today AMD is launching its new Ryzen 7000 PRO series processors, for both mobile and desktop platforms. The new Ryzen PRO 7040 series mobile processors pack up to 8 cores and 16 threads while the Ryzen PRO 7000 desktop processors will top out at 12 cores and 24 threads. 

The Ryzen PRO 7040 mobile processors pack Zen 4 CPU cores and RDNA 3 graphics cores. The chips support a number of AMD PRO technologies, as well as Ryzen AI on all models, with the exception of the entry-level Ryzen 5 PRO 7540U. In the table below you can see the full spec sheet:

In tests with the Ryzen 7 7840U, AMD says that the chip offers up to 70 percent longer battery life compared to the competition while video conferencing over Microsoft Teams, and up to 29 percent better performance per watt in the Procyon benchmark.

Moving onto the desktop side. The Ryzen PRO 7000 series desktop processors offer up to 12 high efficiency Zen 4 cores and up to 5.4GHz boost clock speeds. While the mobile processors here use RNDA 3 integrated graphics, the desktop chips use RDNA 2 cores instead. Each SKU is designed for AMD Socket AM5, with support for DDR5 memory and PCIe 5.0 storage. In the table below, you can see the specs for each chip:

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
