Ayaneo has provided a technical deep-dive of its upcoming Ayaneo 2S handheld console which features the AMD Ryzen 7 7840U APU.
The Ayaneo 2S Handheld gaming console is going to make use of the AMD Ryzen 7 7840U which offers desktop-class performance in a 15-28W design. This chip is similar to the Ryzen Z1 series processors which are used by the ASUS ROG Ally handheld console but those feature additional power optimizations. For now, ASUS is the only one to utilize the Z1 series chips while the rest of the console makers are going to use the Ryzen 7040U series.
The AMD Ryzen 7 7840U is one of the many Ryzen 7040U Phoenix APUs which is designed for the 15-28W laptop and handheld market. This CPU carries 8 cores and 16 threads based on the Zen 4 core architecture and also packs a Radeon 780M iGPU that utilizes the RDNA 3 GPU architecture. It features 12 compute units for a total of 768 cores and those will run close to 2800 MHz frequency. Ayaneo 2S is revealed to feature the APU along with 16 GB of LPDDR5X memory running at 7500 Mbps speeds.
It is also noted that the new AYANEO 2S features a new heatsink solution that incorporates a 3+1 copper tube and copper sheet design which increases the heat dissipation area to 1118mm2 or 33 percent larger than the one featured on the Ayaneo 2 handheld. Ayaneo showcased various tests using the new heatsink and it delivered up to 11.6C drop in temperatures versus its predecessor.
The thermal testing results are as follows:
The new heatsink also comes with an enhanced airflow design which features a rapid heat exhaust technology that increases the air outlet area by 50%. The battery also sees an upgrade with a 50.25 Wh design for extra longer gaming times. There's even an additional Graphene
