AMD unveiled new Ryzen PRO processors with Zen 4, RDNA 3 and XDNA architecture
By ForGeeks Amdm announced the new Ryzen PRO series of commercial processors built on an advanced combination of architectures: Zen 4 for CPUs, RDNA 3 for GPUs and XDNA for NPUs. The lineup targets both notebooks (Ryzen PRO 8040) and desktops (Ryzen PRO 8000), offering a total of 16 processors.
The lineup is aimed at both notebooks (Ryzen PRO 8040) and desktops (Ryzen PRO 8000).
These processors are based on AMD’s 4nm process and AMD Pro technology
.
These processors boast significant improvements in performance, power consumption and artificial intelligence capabilities. These advances are aided by the 4nm process and the integration of AMD PRO technology. They also support the latest WiFi 7 standard and Bluetooth 5.4 for enhanced connectivity.

The Ryzen PRO 8040 notebook series is designed to meet the needs of two different markets. The HS series targets content creators and mobile workstation users and offers powerful processors like the Ryzen 9 PRO 8945HS with 8 cores, 16 threads and clock speeds of 4.0-5.2GHz. These HS series processors can handle demanding tasks, but have higher power consumption — between 35 and 54 watts.

If portability is a priority, the U series offers a more power-efficient option. Processors such as the Ryzen 7 PRO 8840U and Ryzen 5 PRO 8640U have the same number of cores and clock speed as the HS Series processors, but have lower power consumption — 15 to 28 watts. A unique offering in the U series is the Ryzen 5 PRO 8540U, which lacks an NPU.

The desktop-focused Ryzen PRO 8000 series comes in two variants: the G and GE. Both series — G and GE — offer Ryzen 7, 5 and 3 processors. Users who care about performance can opt for the G series, which offers processors similar to the Ryzen 7 PRO 8700G, with 8 cores, 16 threads and clock speeds of 4.2-5.1 GHz. However, the G Series processors have higher power consumption — 45 to 65 watts.
The G Series processors have higher power consumption — 45 to 65 watts.
For those looking for a balance between performance and efficiency, the GE series is an attractive option. These processors, like the Ryzen 5 PRO 8600GE, have the same number of cores and clock speed as the G Series processors, but consume less power — 35 watts.
The GE Series processors have a higher power consumption — 35 watts.
