AMD Ryzen 9 4900H Mobile Processor Announced For Top-End Laptop Performance

AMD today announced the Ryzen 9 4900H as their new top-end Zen 2 mobile processor for notebooks.

The AMD Ryzen 9 4900H is an eight-core / sixteen thread part with a 3.3GHz base frequency and 4.4GHz boost clock. This Renoir processor comes with a 45 Watt TDP given its 8c/16t setup and high clock frequencies.

Coming in below the Ryzen 9 4900H in the H-series is the Ryzen 7 4800H as an 8c/16t 2.9/4.2GHz part as well as the Ryzen 5 4600H at 6c/12t 3.0/4.0GHz configuration. All of these H-series parts have a 45 Watt TDP and 12MB cache.

This mobile processor will begin appearing in devices this spring. More details on AMD.com.

Once AMD Renoir laptops are available in the US, I intend to pick up one for benchmarking given that the Ryzen 4000 series mobile processors are looking quite competitive against Intel.
