Amd ryzen 9 6900hx

If you've read through the whole performance section with all the benchmark numbers, then you probably have a pretty good idea of what to expect from this particular notebook and the 6900HX APU. The AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX is an excellent chip that's suitable for high-performance gaming laptops.

The AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX is a mobile processor with 8 cores, launched in January 2022.

The R9 6900HX integrates all eight cores based on the Zen 3+ microarchitecture. They are clocked at 3.3 (guaranteed base clock) to 4.9 GHz (Turbo) and support SMT / Hyperthreading (16 threads). The chip is manufactured on the modern 6 nm TSMC process.

With more cores and threads than its chief like-priced Intel competitor, AMD's Ryzen 9 3900X is an excellent 12-core beast of a CPU to power a high-end gaming rig or a multimedia editing station.

Both hold up well in productivity and gaming tasks, but there's clearly a better option here overall. The Ryzen 9 7950X3D may be more expensive, but it tangos with the Core i9-13900K in productivity performance while sometimes offering upwards of a 35% boost in gaming performance.
