Launch of the AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 for laptops

Laptop processors can be separated into two different categories. On the one hand, those that go to the domestic market. On the other hand, those that are aimed at the business market and that require a series of hardware additions. Well, AMD has just introduced its Ryzen 6000 PRO. What are their features and what separates them from the standard models?

Keeping data safe in the business market is very important, since many companies need to work with sensitive user data and it is important that there is a degree of security beyond what the operating system itself can provide. This is where a series of changes come in that both Intel and AMD integrate into their professional ranges of processors for laptops and not into their domestic version. Especially in order to protect vulnerabilities at the firmware level that can be used for malicious attacks on a business computer network.

Let’s not forget that our personal data may have value, but it is much more lucrative and more profitable to attack companies of a certain size. Not only to your servers, but also to the employees’ laptops connected to the company’s local network.

What do AMD’s Ryzen PRO 6000 bring us again

Like the Non-PRO models of the Ryzen 6000, we find the use of Zen 3 + processor cores where the main changes have been a greater optimization of consumption. Which allows the Ryzen PRO 6000 to have battery life of up to 26 hours in a row in the best case. Apart from the change in the processor, we have the new integrated graphics with RDNA 2 architecture , which improves video processing for teleworking, apart from increasing application performance.

As for the performance increase in different benchmarks, at the processor level and according to AMD itself and comparing a Ryzen 7 5850 of the previous generation with a Ryzen 7 6850U both running at 15 W TDP and 28 W TDP. The performance boost? Between 10% and 30% if we talk about the main processor and between 50% and more than double if we compare the graphics processor.

If we talk about the Ryzen PRO 6000 models that AMD has launched on the market so that laptop manufacturers can incorporate them, we have a wide variety with models that combine Zen 3 cores with those that have Zen 3+, so we find ourselves with that the models ending with 5U in their name are the Ryzen 5000 of the generation with a name change . While the rest of the models, starting with a TDP of 28 W, do use the new architecture. Although do not rule out 15 W models.

This is how AMD’s new professional laptop CPUs perform

To finish, we will drop information from AMD regarding the performance of its new processor compared to others on the market. We are surprised not to see the Intel Core 12 in the comparison, but as you can see the MobileMark 2018 the Ryzen 7 6850U achieves a score of 26.15 points with a consumption of 76 Wh , instead, the second place in the ranking is the i7-1165G7 that obtains 22.25 points and a consumption of 78 Wh . Which translates into 18% higher performance than the eleventh generation Intel Core based on Intel’s Tiger Lake architecture.
