AMD is bringing new chips to the laptop world

AMD is kicking off their CES 2019 announcements with new Laptop processors. The launch will bring 2n’d Gen Ryzen hardware to the mobile computing world and offer some big increases in performance over their Intel rivals. We will also see some significant boosts in GPU performance with the inclusion of Vega 10 on their higher end laptops.

Pricing for the new chips hasn’t been disclosed, but Asus will be one of the first launching with the new chips, with HP brining a new Chromebook to the market using the latest A-Series chips with 2-cores at 1.8/2.7GHz or 1.6/2.4GHz.
