Ryzen AI Max+ 388 and 392 may feature full 40-CU Strix Halo integrated GPU

A new AMD APU has been spotted in the PassMark database, the Ryzen AI Max+ 388. Moreover, mentions of a Ryzen AI Max+ 392 have also been brought up. These SKUs are pretty interesting, as they appear to fill a gap in the “Strix Halo” lineup, offering 40-CU integrated graphics in lower CPU core count configurations.

Currently, the Zen5-based Strix Halo lineup is split into two segments. The Ryzen AI Max 385 and 390 feature 8 and 12 CPU cores, respectively, but have their graphics reduced to 32 RDNA 3.5 CUs (Radeon 8050S). To get the full 40 CU GPU (the Radeon 8060S), users must jump to the 16-core flagship Ryzen AI Max+ 395.

However, it appears that AMD is working on two SKUs to address this issue. While a PassMark entry (via @realVictor_M) is not an official confirmation, the database is generally more reliable for unreleased SKUs than other benchmarks. A Ryzen AI Max+ 388 APU was spotted running in a device named the “SU AXP77”, which appears to be a 14-inch tablet from SixUnited. The same company shared an image of the Strix Halo lineup, which includes the unannounced Ryzen AI Max+ 388 and the Ryzen AI Max+ 392.

The initial Strix Halo market has been dominated by “AI-focused” mini-PCs, some of which are configured with obscene amounts of RAM. While the Ryzen AI Max+ 388 appears to be a powerful APU for gaming systems, the market is still awaiting its appearance in more accessible, lower-cost devices.

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.
