Performance Overview of Laptops with Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 470 Processor
Main Features and Positioning
Laptops equipped with the Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 470 processor are already available on the market and are intended to replace models with the Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 370. Like Intel vPro chips, Ryzen Pro series processors are often used in business laptops where advanced hardware security features are required. Tests show that there is no significant performance gain compared to the previous generation.
Comparison with the Previous Generation
The tests compared the Dell Pro 7 14 with Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 470 and the Lenovo ThinkPad P14s Gen 6 with Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 370. Both processors are built on the Zen 5 architecture, have the same number of cores, cache size, and power consumption. The main difference is a slightly higher clock speed in the Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 470, making it an updated version of last year's model. In multi-threaded tasks, the new model delivers only a few percent higher performance.
Performance Stability
Performance stability remains at the same level. When running the CineBench R15 xT test multiple times, the initial score of 3274 points quickly drops to 2709 points, which corresponds to a 17% decrease in performance over a short period.
Graphics Performance
Graphics performance also fell short of expectations, despite using the same integrated Radeon 890M graphics processor as the previous model. In 3DMark tests, the Dell Pro laptop scored about 20% lower than the Lenovo ThinkPad P14s Gen 6.
Test Results Summary
Different laptop models with the Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 470 may show minor differences in results, but more affordable systems with the Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 370 deliver an almost identical user experience.
