AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 “Strix” APU Offers Near 7900X CPU Performance In Cinebench, 890M iGPU Close To 50W RTX 3050 In 3DMark

AMD's Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 "Strix" APU has been benchmarked in Cinebench and 3DMark, delivering some huge performance gains over the last gen.

AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 APU Shows Strong CPU & GPU Performance Increase In Cinebench & 3DMark Benchmarks Thanks To Zen 5 & RDNA 3.5 Prowess

The latest benchmarks come from GPD which will be utilizing the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 APU within its DUO laptop which features two 13.3" displays jam-packed together. The GPU DUO is going to be a multi-functional design that can be converted into a tablet and various other hand-held configurations.

So coming to the specifications, the GPD DUO packs the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 which is the fastest APU configuration within the Strix Point family (so far). The chip features 12 cores based on the Zen 4 core architecture, 24 threads, 36 MB of cache (24 MB L3 + 12 MB L2), and a clock speed of 2 GHz base and 5.1 GHz boost, plus a TDP range that can be adjusted between 15-54W.

The iGPU includes a Radeon 890M chip based on the RDNA 3.5 graphics architecture. It packs 16 compute units that are clocked at 2900 MHz. The chip also packs a high-performance XDNA 2 "Ryzen AI" NPU with up to 50 AI TOPS and 80 platform TOPS.

Coming to the performance numbers, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 APU was first tested within the Cinebench 2024 benchmark and scored 124 points in the single-core and 1525 points in the multi-core tests. As per GPD itself, the single-core matches the same performance as the Ryzen 9 7950X which clocks up to 5.7 GHz versus the 5.1 GHz of the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 while the multi-thread CPU performance exceeds that of the Ryzen 9 5950X which features 33% more cores (16 vs 12).

We also added a few more chips for our comparisons and it looks like the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 APU will be very close to the Ryzen 9 7900X, a 12-core Zen 4 chip that clocks at up to 5.6 GHz and has TDP-rated at 170W
