AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 and Ryzen AI 7 450 make tepid Geekbench debut

Some new Geekbench listings have shed more light on AMD's Ryzen AI 400 Gorgon Point CPU. Earlier leaks revealed their specs, and now, we get a glimpse at their tentative performance uplift compared to Strix Point.

Ryzen AI 9 HX 470

Starting with the flagship Ryzen AI 9 HX 470, it scores 2,978 and 15,968 in Geekbench's single and multi-core tests. That's more or less the same as the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 (2,890/15,051), but it isn't indicative of the Gorgon Point CPU's performance because it isn't consistently boosting to its maximum speed (5.3 GHz). It was tested alongside an unreleased Lenovo laptop with 32 GB of DDR5-2126 RAM, which likely affects the overall Geekbench showing.

We also get a glimpse at the Ryzen AI 9 HX 470's Radeon 890M iGPU. It scores 25,677 in Geekbench's OpenCL benchmark. Once again, it fails to surpass the same GPU on its Strix Point counterpart (39,622) despite a marginally higher boost clock (3.1 GHz vs 2.9 GHz). This Radeon 890M sample showed up alongside an Asus laptop with 64 GB DDR5-5572 memory.

Ryzen AI 7 450

Unfortunately, the Ryzen AI 7 450 doesn't fare better, with single and multi-core scores of 2,624 and 10,598, respectively. In contrast, the Ryzen AI 7 350 averages at 2,853 and 13,092. It has shown up alongside the same Lenovo laptop mentioned above with 32 GB of system memory. Specs-wise, it retails the 4+4 layout, with the Zen 5 cluster boosting up to 5.14 GHz. 

Essentially, Gorgon Point will end up being only marginally faster than Strix Point, at least in terms of raw performance. AMD is expected to unveil Gorgon Point at CES 2026.
