Latest AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 “Strix” APU Leak Shows Incredible Single-Core Performance

AMD's Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 "Strix" APU has appeared in a new benchmark leak with a mighty strong single-core performance.

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 APU is part of the Ryzen AI 300 "Strix Point" family and features a 12-core and 24-thread chip that features a four Zen 5 and eight Zen 5C configuration. This chip runs at up to 5.1 GHz boost clocks, offers 36 MB of cache (24 MB L3 + 12 MB L2), & the Radeon 890M iGPU with 16 compute units or 1024 cores. So versus the previous flagship, the Ryzen 9 8945HS, you are getting 50% more cores/threads, 33.3% more compute units, and 3.12x the NPU performance which is great gen-over-gen gains.

The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 "Strix" APU that has leaked was tested on the ASUS ProArt P16 laptop which is one of the new products that the manufacturer recently launched by the manufacturer & officially hit retail on the 28th of July. This laptop is configured with 64 GB of LPDDR5-7467 MT/s memory and should be packing the aforementioned iGPU unless ASUS goes with a discrete GPU route. According to the Geekbench log, the CPU ran at a maximum frequency of 5145 MHz which is slightly above its 5.1 GHz official boost clock.

Coming to the performance figures, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 "Strix" APU scored an impressive 2913 points in the single-core and 15,044 points in the multi-core tests. GPD has also shared the performance benchmarks of its own GPD Duo handheld which scores an even faster multi-thread score of 15,279 points as shown in the benchmarks below:

Following are comparisons with some current-gen chips from Intel and AMD:

In single-core tests, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 "Zen 5" CPU is easily one of the fastest chips around in the mobile segment. It's 22% ahead of the Hawk Point flagship (Ryzen 9 8945HS) & 29% ahead of the Meteor Lake flagship (Core Ultra 9 185H). In multi-threaded tests, the CPU ends up 30% faster than the Hawk Point flagship and 24% faster than the Meteor Lake flagship. It also outperforms the Ryzen 9 7845HX which is a 12-core chip with a much higher 55W+ default TDP by 10% and comes close to the Ryzen 9 7945HX too.

AMD's Ryzen AI 300 CPUs including the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 "Strix" APU will be featured across several high-end "AI PC" and gaming laptops so stay tuned as we approach launch to see what more these designs have to offer.
