We already know that AMD is planning to offer CPUs based on various microarchitectures in its Ryzen 7000 series processors for laptops, but AMD has decided to reveal Zen 3 based Ryzen 7000 series CPUs. I’m holding back. But the new Document Officially mentioned the Ryzen 7030 series and Ryzen Pro 7030 series mobile processors to cover the Specter Variant 2 vulnerability ( @komachi_ensaka).
Starting with its Ryzen 7000 series processors in laptops and beyond, AMD announced in September that it would sell CPUs based on different microarchitectures within a single family, offering a wide range of offerings for different performance needs and price points. clarified. As a result, his Ryzen 7000 lineup of notebook processors will include models based on AMD’s Zen 2, Zen 3 and Zen 4 microarchitectures.
In fact, the company already list The entry-level Ryzen 3 7320U and Ryzen 5 7520U processors with Zen 2 cores are available on the company’s website. The company will also be offering Zen 3 powered Ryzen 7030 series ‘Rembrandt’ CPUs with Zen 3 and RDNA 2 graphics for mid-range laptops. The top-of-the-line Dragon Range and Phoenix APUs belong to the Ryzen 7040 family and will feature Zen 4 CPU cores and (possibly) RDNA 3 based graphics units.
On the other hand, AMD’s new part numbering scheme for mobile CPUs is so complex that it’s difficult to infer a processor’s performance based solely on its family affiliation, formal positioning, microarchitecture, etc. As always, the best way to know the performance of any particular CPU is to check its individual ratings.
For the Specter Variant 2 class of potential vulnerabilities, known as CVE-2017-5715 and CVE-2022-23824, according to AMD documentation, all AMD pre-Zen processors for desktops, laptops, and servers have seem to have an impact. An OS or hypervisor update is required to mitigate this issue.
