AMD's newly released laptop processor, Strix Point, is about to hit the market, while the more powerful Strix Halo is currently undergoing rigorous testing. Strix Halo also features the new Zen5/5c, RDNA3.5, and XDNA2 architectures, but with a larger scale, showcasing its dominance as AMD's most powerful APU. According to new shipping records, Strix Halo will use the Socket FP11 package interface, with power consumption reaching up to 120W, and it will be equipped with an unprecedented 128GB of onboard memory, setting a new record.
According to leaked information, Strix Halo supports a 256-bit memory bus and LPDDR5X-8000 frequency. However, unlike Apple's M1 series and Intel's Lunar Lake, the memory will not be integrated with the processor in a single package but will be mounted separately on the board. Considering that a single LPDDR5X memory chip has a maximum capacity of 16GB, Strix Halo requires up to 8 memory chips to achieve the 128GB configuration, further highlighting its advanced technological design.
