Ryzen 7000 APUs may have a 1.1GHz RDNA 2 GPU

We already know that AMD's Ryzen 7000 series processors will arrive later this year and will be based on the new Zen 4 architecture, which will bring a performance improvement, as well as support for new technologies such as DDR5 and PCI Express 5.0 and the introduction of the AM5 socket. At the moment, not much is known about their specifications, other than the fact that they will be built on TSMC's 5nm process node, but recently some details have been leaked thanks to a new AMD SMU (System Management Unit) driver, more specifically. inherent to the integrated GPU. In fact, it seems that the GPU, based on RDNA 2, could have a frequency of 1.1 GHz, although it is not specified whether it is the base clock or the Boost clock.

Based on this, we can say that the integrated GPU could have 256 SPs running at 1.1GHz, for a computational power equal to 0.5TFLOP FP32. This result is a bit disappointing, especially if we compare it to a Ryzen 5 6600HS, which can deliver a maximum of 1.5TFLOP. However, it should be borne in mind that the low clock speeds extrapolated from the AMD SMU driver could refer to a first engineering sample which, as we all know, has lower frequencies than those of the final product.

Recently, the Sunnyvale company has released numerous details inherent in the AMD Ryzen 6000 series, which will make notebooks even more powerful and efficient.
