AMD Expands Hawk Point With 11 New Ryzen 200/100 SKUs Fueled by Zen 4 and RDNA 3

AMD quietly expands its Hawk Point family with 11 new CPUs across the Ryzen 200 and 100 series: seven Zen 4-based chips in the Ryzen 200 lineup (up to 8 cores/16 threads with Radeon 700M iGPUs) and four Ryzen 100-series SKUs built on a 4nm process with RDNA 3 integrated graphics, clarifying these are not Zen 3+ as some had suggested. The new chips target laptops and mini PCs, with Radeon 740M/760M/780M iGPUs appearing across the lineup.

FSR 4.1 Boosts Older GPUs, Expands RDNA 3 Reach

AMD launches FSR 4.1 for Radeon RX 7000-series GPUs, promising better image quality and smoother gameplay. It’s developing lightweight ML models to bring FSR 4.1 to RDNA 3 APUs and plans RDNA 2 support in early 2027. FSR 4.1 is already in 300+ games, with Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations and Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced due in July.

FSR 4.1 Arrives for RDNA 3, Boosting RX 7000 Gaming

AMD has released FSR Upscaling 4.1 for RDNA 3 GPUs, starting with the Radeon RX 7000 series alongside the Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 driver, claiming support for over 300 games and visual parity with RDNA 4’s FSR 4.1. Because RDNA 3 uses INT8 instead of FP8, AMD had to rewrite the 4.1 model for this generation, with ongoing work to optimize RDNA 3 APUs and potential RDNA 3.5 support; this marks a first step toward bringing FSR 4 across RDNA generations and suggesting future updates.

FSR 4.1 expands to older RDNA GPUs, starting with RDNA3 this July

AMD will bring its FSR 4.1 AI upscaling to older GPUs, with RDNA3 cards getting the upgrade in July and RDNA2 support arriving in early 2027. The expansion covers 300+ games (including Cyberpunk 2077, Battlefield 6, and Assassin’s Creed Shadows) and will extend to devices like the Steam Deck, after AMD tuned and tested the model across hundreds of PC configurations to run on older hardware.

Seasonic Reveals Power-Hungry Nvidia RTX 50 and AMD RX 7000 GPUs

PSU manufacturer Seasonic has listed several unreleased AMD Radeon RX 7000 GPUs, including the 7990 XTX, 7950 XTX, and 7950 XT, on its Wattage Calculator webpage. This has sparked speculation about a potential high-end refresh of AMD's RDNA 3 lineup, especially given rumors of the next-gen RDNA 4 being delayed to 2025. While these listings could be placeholders, they suggest possible upcoming models with higher clock speeds, power ratings, and faster memory.

"PS5 Pro: Updated Specs Revealed with RDNA 3 GPU and 3840 Stream Processors"

Insider Kepler corrects the leaked specifications of the rumored PlayStation 5 Pro, stating that it will use 60 out of the 64 available CUs, resulting in a GPU with 3840 Stream Processors. Additionally, the AI architecture XDNA2 will not be used in the custom AMD chip called Viola. The updated spec sheet for the PlayStation 5 Pro includes an 8-core AMD Zen 2 CPU, a 60CU AMD RDNA GPU, and 16GB of GDDR6 RAM. Sony is reportedly preparing for more PS5 Pro spec leaks as third-party game developers receive devkits.

AMD's Next-Gen Laptop GPUs: A Global Search

AMD's next-gen RDNA 3 laptop graphics cards, announced earlier this year, have been notably absent from the market. Despite claims of competitive performance, there are only a few laptops available with these GPUs, such as the Asus Tuf Gaming A16 and Alienware m16/m18. Even among these options, it can be difficult to find laptops configured with AMD GPUs. Nvidia continues to dominate the gaming laptop market, and it remains unclear why AMD's next-gen GPUs have not seen wider availability. Rumors suggest that AMD may be working on higher-end options, but for now, the company's laptop offerings have fallen flat.

"AMD's Radeon RX 7900 XTX: Power Draw, Price Drops, and Prime Day Deals"

A comparison test between AMD's Radeon RX 7900 XTX and Nvidia's RTX 4080 reveals that the AMD card draws an average of 150 W more power than its Nvidia counterpart. Despite both GPUs being built on the TSMC 4 nm nodes, AMD has not yet resolved the power efficiency issues with its RDNA 3 cards. The power draw difference is evident across various games, with the AMD card consistently drawing more power. Nvidia's RTX 4080 also runs cooler and has less noticeable coil whine. AMD will need to address these power issues to compete with Nvidia's high-end offerings.
