Today, AMD announces the official availability of its enthusiast-grade Ryzen 7045 "Dragon Range" laptop CPUs which offer impressive efficiency, performance, and gaming dominance in sleek and stylish designs.
The AMD Dragon Range CPUs are aimed at the high-performance laptop segment with more cores, threads, & cache than what AMD has offered us previously while Phoenix Point will be aimed at the thin and light laptop segment. The Dragon Range CPUs will have a TDP rating of around 55W-75W+ while Phoenix Point will have TDPs of around 35-45W. The 55W TDP is for the base configuration and we can expect the chip to be configurable up to 75W for laptop designs with high-end cooling and bigger form factors.
All AMD Ryzen 7045 "Dragon Range" CPUs come with overclocking support in the form of PBO (Precision Boost Overdrive) which recent tests have shown to offer a nice boost in performance by up to 5%. We have already seen the trio of chips, the Ryzen 9 7945HX, Ryzen 9 7845HX, & Ryzen 7 7745HX in action and they absolutely destroy Intel in performance efficiency results.
In the latest official gaming performance chart, AMD compares the Ryzen 9 7945HX against the Intel Core i9-13950HX across several games. The Dragon Range CPU nets a 10% average and up to a blisteringly fast 45% performance gain at 1080p High settings. Since the Core i9-13980HX is just a higher-clocked (+100 MHz) 13950HX, there's no doubt that the Dragon Range chip will sit ahead of it too, making it truly the "World's Most Powerful Mobile Processor" to date for gaming.
AMD has introduced a total of four new SKUs within its Dragon Range lineup which include the Ryzen 9 7945HX with 16 cores and 32 threads, the Ryzen 9 7845HX with 12 cores and 24 threads, the Ryzen 7
