The Ryzen 7000U mobile APU line will have processors on three different architectures. Ryzen 5 7530U will get Zen 3+ cores
The line of Ryzen 7000 mobile processors, like the two previous generations, will include both really new APUs and solutions on the old architecture.
This is indicated by the Ryzen 5 7530U, which lit up on the Web. Thanks to AMD’s new naming convention, one name is enough to tell if it’s a Zen 3 or Zen 3+ APU. From the rest, we only know that this is a six-core processor, also equipped with a GPU with 12 CU units, that is, with 768 stream processors. By the way, this speaks in favor of the Zen 3+ architecture, because the Ryzen 6000U has such an iGPU.
Thus, the main line of Ryzen 7000U will include both new processors based on the Zen 4 architecture, as well as solutions from the previous generation.
In fact, it will be even more interesting, because in fact the Mendocino APUs, which are based on Zen 2, will also enter the same line, and it turns out that the Ryzen 7000U will be the first line to include three generations of processors. But here it is worth noting that the Mendocino APUs will have a positioning different from the main Ryzen 7000 line, so they are unlikely to intersect within the same laptop models. In addition, Mendocino cannot be called old renamed APUs, since they only have processor cores, and iGPUs are as modern as possible.
AMD first introduced the old APU approach in the new line with the release of the Ryzen 5000U, so when choosing a laptop with Ryzen processors, you need to carefully approach the process. We also recall that Intel decided to go even further and will do exactly the same, but already in the desktop segment: in the Raptor Lake line, only older CPUs will be new, while all the rest will be renamed and, possibly, slightly accelerated models from the Alder Lake line.

Intel wants a “five-year plan” in a year? Next year the company will have three lines of desktop processors at once, as Meteor Lake-S will still be released

Intel seems to have decided to exceed the plan not only in terms of technical processes, but also in terms of CPU lines. It turns out that Meteor Lake-S desktop processors will still be released.
Michelle Johnston Holthaus, Intel executive vice president and general manager of the client computing group, spoke about this. The PC World journalist, apparently not expecting an affirmative answer to his question regarding the fate of Meteor Lake-S, even asked again, and again received an affirmative answer.
So, tabletop Meteor Lake will still be released, and will be released next year. But now it’s not very clear how Intel is going to launch three lines at once within one year. Let us remind you that Raptor Lake Refresh will be released in October, and Arrow Lake is also expected next year. And if previously it was believed that the latter would simply replace the former, now another line is being added to them.
Perhaps Meteor Lake and Arrow Lake will coexist in the same way as in the mobile segment: Intel said that the former will occupy the mid-price segment, and the latter will be available in the upper price segment. And if these lines are released on desktop at the end of 2024, then they will together replace Raptor Lake Refresh. However, such a division will still be unusual, and Intel itself promised to release ARROW Lake much earlier than at the end of next year.

The Huawei Kirin 9000s platform is truly unique. It has a 12-core processor, although it’s far from record-breaking performance.

The Kirin 9000s platform continues to bring surprises, although smartphones based on it have been on sale for some time.
After the latest Huawei flagships received HarmonyOS 4.0.0.116, Geekbench software began to define the characteristics of the new SoC differently. If earlier it was seen as an eight-core solution, now the number of processor cores is indicated as 12.
It’s worth remembering here that AnTuTu initially determined that the platform had exactly 12 cores, however, including two Cortex-A34.
Geekbench, well, indicates the types of cores, but talks about three clusters: four cores with a frequency of 1.53 GHz, two with a frequency of 2.62 GHz and six with a frequency of 2.15 GHz. This information is confirmed by screenshots from the mobile version of the benchmark.
We have not yet seen mobile SoCs with 12-core CPUs. At the same time, the performance of the Kirin 9000s, despite this configuration, is far from flagship by 2023 standards, that is, the cores themselves are not the most powerful.

A year after the start of sales in China, Xiaomi’s 30-inch gaming monitor has finally reached Europe. The price has been announced

Sales of the new Xiaomi gaming monitor began in Europe: in April 2022, this model entered the Chinese market under the name Redmi Curved Monitor 30, but in Europe the device is called Xiaomi Curved Gaming Monitor 30.
The resolution of the curved panel is 2560 x 1080 pixels, the radius of curvature is 1.8 m. Maximum brightness is 300 cd/sq.m., contrast is 3000: 1. The stated pixel response time is 4 ms, AMD FreeSync Premium, Picture- in-Picture and Picture-by-Picture. Video inputs include one DisplayPort, HDMI 2.1 and HDMI 1.4.
In the UK, the Xiaomi Curved Gaming Monitor 30 costs 240 pounds, in Spain – 240 euros.
