Strix Point is finally arriving in more devices and flavors. For example, the new Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 with the AMD Ryzen AI 7 Pro 360. This slender business laptop is ideally suited for the 8 core version of Zen 5.

The AMD Strix Point platform had a limited launch this summer, launching as the Ryzen AI 300 series mostly for consumer laptops. At the beginning, only ten and twelve core versions of the new CPU generation came out, which were mostly limited to designs with more powerful cooling. But that is changing now, as the new CPU cores are finally starting to trickle down to other segments as well.

For example, we recently tested the new AMD Ryzen AI 7 Pro 360, a Strix Point CPU with eight cores. The occasion for our review was the Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 6, a thin and lightweight system for commercial customers and big business.

While it would be interesting to have the more powerful versions of Strix Point in such a mobile chassis, the Ryzen AI 7 was clearly the right choice here, as the eight core CPU keeps delivering good performance while also not taxing the small cooling system too much. Overall, the ThinkPad balances the performance and the user experience very well thanks to the Ryzen AI 7 CPU, reaching a very good score of 88 percent.

We can not wait for it to arrive in more systems. Clearly, this was also the reason why Lenovo did not produce as ThinkPad T14s Gen 5 with AMD CPUs, as Lenovo wanted to wait until Strix Point was ready for the ThinkPad.
