AMD has announced that their new PRO A-Series processors have begun to ship. The PRO A-Series is based on Carrizo.

The AMD PRO A-Series mobile processors are aimed at the "commercial laptop" market and will begin appearing in HP EliteBooks among other professional-oriented laptops in due time.

AMD is aiming the PRO A-Series launch as "some of the first-to-market Windows 10 equipped commercial laptop systems for businesses." Windows 10 was mentioned six times in the press release, but no sign of Linux.

The AMD PRO A12 processor is the fastest of today's line-up and has a 3.4GHz max frequency with Radeon R7 Graphics running at 800MHz and 512 compute cores.
