I'm almost convinced all these companies have such a confusing naming convention just to trick the layman into paying high money for laptops with no good value

[carlosalvarez]

"Pro" use to be those processors used in "Business or Workstation" laptops. I have one, "4750u Pro", basically the BIOS have some extra security features.

[aymir]

The "PRO" designation is a term AMD uses to refer to a line of business oriented processors that use their "PRO" technologies, which provide a level of security to prevent malicious software from causing more damage, they also claim 18 months of software stability, whatever that means.

[oblivious_]

One of my biggest complaints for the Qualcomm chip was that while it is designed to be budget friendly, it ended up being put into an expensive chassis like the zen book A14 bumping it’s starting price to 899. Wth…

[adinnugroho]

I think Pro in AMD CPU means used in Business. Non Pro is for general consumer. Btw, Strix Halo is meant for competing or AMD inspired by Apple's M series design

[chrisforbes]

Needing to study quantum mechanics to understand the naming of these

[ZiggyMercury]

What a fucking mess. As has already been said by others - this starts to seem intentional, in order to trick/cheat buyers.

5:27 Lunar Lake's 140V iGPU is not the same as Arrow Lake-H's 140T iGPU. Lunar Lake uses Battlemage, or Xe2, whereas Arrow Lake-H uses Alchemist+, or Xe1+.

[tyyamnitz]

Would love an integrated graphics comparison once you are able to test some of these

[antonczerwinske]

That CPU overview graphic is awsome thank you❤

[VihangaDananjaya]

When these laptops are actually available to buy for reasonable prices, AMD & Intel will have launched another entire generation of CPUs.

[rramnel]

Thanks for the comprehensive but still somewhat "simple" overview. Sad to see that the G14 2025 version still has options with the AMD Zen 4 architecture.

[GoFeri]

Come up with a naming scheme for a fictional Forge mobile CPU family by Vortex Inc. It combines several architectures and each series has at least three SKUs.

Vortex Forge AI Ultra Max 7 (Colombus River refresh) - for entry-level prosumers
Vortex Forge AI Ultra Max V7 (Atlas Hill) - for entry-level prosumers thin & light low-power
Vortex Forge AI Ultra Pro Max 8 (Magellan River refresh) - for mid-range prosumers
Vortex Forge AI Ultra Pro Max V8 (Atlas Hill) - for mid-range thin & light low-power
Vortex Forge AI Ultra Pro+ Max 9 (Prometheus Hill) - for high-end prosumers
Vortex Forge AI Ultra Pro+ Max V9 (Atlas Hill) - for high-end prosumers thin & light low-power
Vortex Forge AI Ultra Pro+ Max3D 9 (Prometheus Hill) - for high-end gaming
Vortex Forge AI HyperUltra Pro+ Max X9 (Olympus Hill) - for ultra high-end prosumers
Vortex Forge AI HyperUltra Pro+ Max3D X9 (Olympus Hill) - for ultra high-end gaming
Vortex Forge AI HyperUltra Pro+ Max3D X9X (Olympus Hill) - for ultra mega high-end gaming
Vortex Forge xAI HyperUltra Pro+ Max X9 (Olympus Hill) - for ultra high-end ML

[RobertTowell]

Thank you, this was so needed.
The graphics on cpu alone helps so much.

That’s actually really helpful, thanks a lot

[xerzy]

Honestly, for development purposes the Qualcomm chips have been very interesting ones. That unimpressive X1P-42-100 is matching previous gen chips like the 155H or the 7840HS/8845HS/260 (...come on AMD) for compiling tasks, yet sipping power ‒ much more so when I'm not doing that nor playing games, so I can just set it at the lowest tier. I can easily go for half a week with a 52Wh battery (Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 14Q8X9, yes it's just a lower tier Yoga Slim 7x), very little to complain about other than EU pricing (999€ for 60Hz OLED+1TB+32GB, should be 799 instead). So perhaps the most basic X, with very similar specs, has a fighting chance.

[TheRetroEngine]

Very concise video, well explained. I am looking for something, but not top of the top of the range.

[lukass.]

AMDs Pros have features for IT-departments. IIRC they can remotely enforce BIOS updates, can block users from updating/changing BIOS themself or replacing parts with parts that could be corrupted.

[Not_a_lier]

They will make sure that this video will become outdated by the next launch cycle

Here i thought that SaaS products were jumping on the AI bandwagon to entice product managers so they can pitch it to customers, never knew AMD was trying to entice product managers instead of gamers, people who play video games consider AI to be the biggest bloat and I hope these companies understand that in the first place.
