AMD is Rumor To work on the successor to the Dragon Range processors (Ryzen 7045HX), codenamed Fire Range. Wu Haijun, Chairman of Hasee, a Chinese PC manufacturer, has reportedly confirmed that these upcoming CPUs will be branded according to AMD’s old naming system and also confirmed the development of a mobile X3D variant, the Ryzen 9 9955HX3D (via Golden Pig Upgrade Pack). In addition, the discussion also touched on Intel’s Arrow Lake-HX processors, but the sentiment was not entirely positive.
AMD and Intel offer select processors that use HX-branded desktop silicon at the top end. with Ryzen 7000AMD introduced the Dragon Range, which features up to two CCDs and one IOD, and is distinct from its other mobile counterparts, which are monolithic. These processors are designed for workstations or desktop replacements but suffer from poor battery life due to the multi-chip design. Likewise, Intel’s HX series processors are no different, with their latest version, the Core Ultra 200HX or Arrow Lake HX, expected to debut in CES.
At a recent press conference ahead of the launch, Wu Haijun, president and founder of Hasee Computer Company, shared key details about the upcoming AMD and Intel HX processors. AMD is reportedly porting its X3D, or 3D V-Cache, technology to mobile devices with the Fire Range X3D.
However, Wu Haijun has named the Ryzen 9 9955HX3D, an upcoming mobile CPU from AMD, after the Ryzen 9 7945HX3D. He did not confirm whether Hasee products will feature this processor in their laptops. Interestingly, while AMD’s Zen 5 mobile CPUs have adopted the new Ryzen AI 300 brand, the company is reviving its business Old naming system For fire range.
On the other hand, Arrow Lake-HX was also part of the discussion at the meeting. According to the report, Intel 255HX and 275HX processors, The alleged one Being 20 and 24 core widths, respectively, is not impressive in performance. The exact definition of “performance” in this context is unclear, however, it is known that Arrow Lake does not offer many improvements; If anything, above Raptor Lake when we take into account raw performance.
Efficiency, on the contrary, is another topic. The Arrow Lake-HX should theoretically outperform the Raptor Lake-HX if both chips operate within a strict 45W power limit. However, we’ll let Intel fill in the additional details in its CES keynote.
