There’s a lot of hype surrounding AMD’s next-generation laptop CPU design, Strix Halo. It’s set to follow the equally highly anticipated Strix Point chips, which are arriving as the Ryzen AI 300 series in laptops later this month, but is expected it include a big leap in GPU power. As such, today’s leak of the first AMD Strix Halo benchmark should be cause for excitement, but ultimately leaves us still with plenty of questions.

The story so far with AMD Strix Halo is that it’s a CPU design with a powerful integrated GPU that’s set to find its way into the best gaming laptop designs of the future – with the launch expected to occur as early as CES 2025 in January next year. We’ve seen from previous leaks, concerning the  AMD Strix Halo GPU and AMD Strix Halo diagram, that the chip is expected to be powerful, but this new leak is the first to include benchmark data.
