AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 trades blows with Raptor Lake flagships and Apple M series on PassMark

So far, AMD's Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 has delivered impressive performance across a wide range of benchmarks such as Geekbench, Cinebench R24 and Cinebench 2024. The Strix Point flagship has now showed up on PassMark, and its performance is as follows:

• Integer Math: 132,509 MOps/Sec
• Floating Point Math: 82,837 MOps/Sec
• Find Prime Numbers: 127 Million Primes/Sec
• Random String Sorting: 50,621 Thousand Strings/Sec
• Data Encryption: 24,257 MBytes/Sec
• Data Compression: 486,088 KBytes/Sec
• Physics: 1,957 Frames/Sec
• Extended Instructions: 33,938 Million Matrices/Sec
• Single Thread: 4,213 MOps/Sec

Its overall single-threaded performance score stands at 4,213, putting the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 ahead of Intel Core i9-13900HX and Apple M2 Max. However, it lags behind Raptor Lake heavy hitters such as the Core i9-14900HX and Core i9-13980HX. Unsurprisingly, Apple's M3 and its numerous variants sit on top.

The 12-core, 24-thread AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 understandably lags behind last-gen CPUs in multi-threaded workloads with an overall score of 37,699. Interestingly, a two-generation-old Ryzen 9 7945HX and its X3D variant top the charts, trouncing Raptor Lake and Apple SKUs that have a much higher core count. It is worth noting AMD's Hawk Point-based Ryzen 8000 SKUs are nowhere close to the top, presumably due to their nerfed power limits.

For now, this is the only Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 sample to be found on PassMark. More should show up after July 28 when the laptops drop. Strix Point is, after all, rumoured to be AMD's 'biggest laptop launch in history".
