AMD is preparing to release Ryzen 4000G hybrid processors, the desktop part of the Renoir family. From many rumors and leaks, quite a lot of details are known about them. Now the Igor's Lab resource has revealed fresh information about the range of the new series, which is quite different from previous leaks, but nevertheless looks very plausible.
According to the source, in the new family of desktop hybrid processors, AMD will focus primarily on solutions for the enterprise sector. AMD is reportedly preparing at least six Renoir Ryzen Pro series processors. These will be: eight-core Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G and Ryzen 7 PRO 4750GE, six-core Ryzen 5 PRO 4650G and Ryzen 5 PRO 4650GE and quad-core Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G and Ryzen 3 PRO 4350GE.
In turn, for the consumer segment, AMD will offer only six-core processors Ryzen 5 4600G and 4600GE and quad-core Ryzen 3 4300G and 4300GE. Moreover, most likely, only models with the “G” suffix will be on retail sale, while “GE” models with a TDP level reduced to 35 W can be found more likely in OEM assemblies and/or other ready-made systems. As for the consumer hybrid eight-core processor Ryzen 7 4700G, it will not be released to the market.
In general, AMD's decision to target platforms for the business segment within the Renoir family looks quite logical. Systems that require a powerful central processor and a graphics processor are not at all important are much more often in demand for work tasks. Ordinary consumers are more likely to be interested in hybrid processors for so-called “multimedia systems,” where eight cores are unlikely to be much more useful than six.
In addition, eight-core Ryzen 4000G chips with integrated graphics may turn out to be quite expensive due to the monolithic crystal, which will discourage the interest of ordinary consumers from them. Or, on the contrary, they can compete with the current eight-core Ryzen 3000 series, which is also not in the interests of AMD.
Finally, the source reports that the announcement of desktop processors from the Renoir family will take place on July 7, but this will only be a formal milestone, without any large-scale presentation. According to other sources, the release of these chips should only be expected on July 27.
