AMD Isn’t Done With Ryzen AI 300 APU Lineup, More Powerful & Bigger SKUs In The Works

wccftech.com:

Given the hype around AMD's Ryzen AI 300 "Strix" APUs, the firm is rumored to release more powerful SKUs within the family.

AMD Plans To Enhance The Ryzen AI 300 Series Through New & Advanced APUs, Likely Pointing To Strix Halo Lineup

AMD's Ryzen AI 300 "Strix" APUs are by far one of the most competitive offerings in the AI PC race, competing head to head with Qualcomm's Snapdragon X Elite alternatives in the markets. The existing SKUs are a favorite for OEMs like ASUS, which is why the firm has designed a decorated product lineup around the architecture.

However, to sustain the hype, the famous leaker Golden Pig Upgrade now reports that AMD plans on introducing additional SKUs in the Strix Point lineup, adding that they are going to be "bigger" ones, which means they are more capable.

Currently, AMD's Ryzen AI 300 "Strix" APU lineup consists of the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 and the Ryzen AI 9 365, both of which are highly capable in their respective domains, but it looks like further APUs are being cooked by AMD, and this also makes sense since its kind of weird to have only two SKUs within the family although the scale a much wider TDP range (15-54W) which eliminates the need to have different segments such as HS/H/U series.

Unfortunately, the leaker didn't provide us with details regarding the specifics of the SKUs, apart from the fact that they will be more powerful than the existing ones. Based on this, we can make an assumption. Team Red plans to introduce new SKUs within the Ryzen 9 AI branding, that's for sure. The company could decorate the naming scheme by adding new models, such as the Ryzen 9 AI 385 or something similar, but that's not conclusive yet. The leaker also points out "Ryzen AI Max Plus" as a tentative branding which will make it similar to Apple's SOCs.

Another interesting approach here would be for AMD to add
