Chaos is about to hit Ryzen 7000 laptop APUs. Now, this is not necessarily bad, because in this case chaos is synonymous with an extreme variety of architectures, both in terms of the processor and the GPU. Because? Well, because soon, within the same family, we will be able to find integrated architectures Zen4, Zen3 and Zen2. And what about the graphics? Well, we will find encapsulated with RDNA 3, others with RDNA 2 and also some with Vega.
This, as I said before, means that AMD wanted to offer a lot of options to assemblers of laptops, which, thanks to it, know that they can have the right chip for each type of laptop they wish to bring to the market, from top-of-the-range computers that have little or nothing to envy desktop computers for very demanding tasks, to very cheap equipment, going through others that seek a balance between performance and efficiency, others that focus on autonomy, and so on.
However, such a variety of options with the common denominator of Ryzen 7000 can be a bit confusing for users who want to buy a laptop with an AMD APU, but who have not memorized the technical data sheet of each of the manufacturer’s chips. Obviously, if we are talking about buying a laptop, it is best to find out well beforehand, but using elements that help to quickly identify one APU from another can undoubtedly be of great help.
That is what AMD must have thought, so that consequently, as we can read in Videocardz, Ryzen 7000 notebook APUs will be identified by an orange label. You already know that laptops usually have a sticker (or several, in some cases) that identify its most important components, such as the processor, graphics card, etc. It is on this sticker where we can detect this difference.
The image, which has been sent by AMD to its business partners (among them, of course, the assemblers) shows a clear difference between the version that will identify the Ryzen 7000 chips with Zen 4 architecture, that is, the top of the range, from the rest of the laptops. In this way, those looking for a high-performance system can quickly narrow the search thanks to this visual element. However, it is also true that it will not be the only element that allows us to quickly identify this property, since another very effective system will be to look at its price.
