The Apex 16 Max and the Pro 16 from the German manufacturer XMG are two very similar laptops with the fastest version of the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. But which of the two processors - AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX or Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX - is a better partner for the GPU?

Asus has confirmed US pricing for its first 14-inch gaming laptop powered by AMD's Strix Halo architecture.

The Sixunited AXB88 is a comparatively small mini-PC thanks to its 160 x 160 x 47 mm dimensions and 1.2 litre case volume. Nonetheless, the new release seeks to rival the GMKtec EVO-X2 and other high-end models courtesy of AMD's Strix Halo platform with a Radeon 8060S iGPU.

When people ask which ThinkPad to buy, probably the most common answer is the ThinkPad T series and more specifically, the ThinkPad T14. But there are also other models, like the ThinkPad L14 we just reviewed. Here are the key differences.

In the last few years, Lenovo always kept the ThinkPad L series confined to older AMD CPUs. With the Lenovo ThinkPad L14 Gen 6 AMD, this is no longer the case! Thanks to newer Krackan Point CPUs, the newest model is more attractive than the ThinkPad E14 Gen 7 AMD.

AMD has just updated its Strix Halo series with new options. Nonetheless, various sources have already obtained information about an alleged Gorgon Halo refresh that AMD will land before the end of 2026.

Minisforum has started the new year by refreshing one of its popular mini-PCs. Available to order globally, the new model will be more powerful than original configurations thanks to a major AMD Ryzen APU upgrade. Minisforum continues to offer the AI X1 on both barebones and pre-configured bases.

Minisforum has released a new mini-PC featuring OCuLink connectivity with support for up to 128 GB of DDR5 RAM. Launched globally as the Minisforum AI X1 Pro-470, the mini-PC is one of the first of its kind to leverage AMD's new Gorgon Point architecture.

The XMG Apex 16 Max currently starts at €2,100 and is equipped with the 140W version of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Laptop with 12 GB VRAM. You also get 32 GB RAM, a powerful HX CPU from AMD as well as a good IPS or even an optional Mini-LED screen.

The Slimbook One is a brand-new mini PC that runs Linux out of the box. Powered by up to a Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 APU and 128 GB of DDR5 memory, the One mini PC features a healthy array of ports, including OCuLink and dual 2.5G Ethernet.

Minisforum has confirmed initial details about its first AMD Strix Halo-powered Mini-ITX motherboard. Launching later this year under the DeskMini series, the BD395i Max will feature a full-length PCIe slot too, although this is unlikely to provide PCIe x16 bandwidth.

Beelink has detailed a new set of high-end mini-PCs that it will be selling globally. Built around 10 Gbps Ethernet and AMD Gorgon Point APUs, the SER10 Pro and SER10 Max will differ in terms of their I/O and their memory configurations.

When we tested the Dell Pro 14 Plus laptop, we were shocked by the quality of its screen. It is just not up to par, despite the fact that we chose the top model of the PB14255 for the German market. The worst thing: Dell has better screens available, they just do not use them.

Priced at less than €1,000, the Asus ExpertBook PM3 is a good office laptop with a modern AMD CPU and aluminum chassis. You also get a comfortable keyboard and a three-year warranty as well as updates for five years by default.

Of the big three in the PC space, Dell was the manufacturer that was most loyal to Intel's CPU. In their commercial Dell Latitude lineup, no system used AMD CPUs. With the newer Dell Pro lineup, this is no longer the case: Dell is finally offering AMD CPUs in models like the Dell Pro 14 Plus.

The Ryzen AI Max+ 392 is one of AMD's new Strix Halo APUs showcased during CES 2026. Based on early benchmarks, the Zen 5 processor manages to outperform the similar Ryzen AI Max 390 and Ryzen AI Max Pro 390 but fails to close the gap to the existing Ryzen AI Max+ 395.

Asus has silently updated one of its 14-inch gaming laptops with a new version. Initially announced only last week, the AMD Strix Halo-powered laptop will now be capable of providing up to 48 GB VRAM to its Radeon 8060S iGPU, thanks to an optional 64 GB RAM variant.

The new ExpertBook PM3 from Asus is a good office laptop with the AMD Ryzen AI 7 350, which is a good alternative for the Lenovo ThinkPad E14. However, you have to be careful with the choice of display.

The Retro Style is one of the first mini-PCs to leverage AMD's Gorgon Point architecture. Also featuring up to 64 GB of RAM and a 4 TB SSD, the Retro Style wears its design inspirations on its sleeve too.

Intel's upcoming Panther Lake APUs are shaping up to be quite impressive, at least in terms of energy efficiency and graphics performance. However, AMD is reportedly not that worried about the Core Ultra X9 388H Panther Lake flagship and its 12-core Arc B390 iGPU.

The Acer Veriton RA100 is one of the many new products that the company showcased at CES 2026. Featuring the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395, it brings the powerful Radeon 8060S iGPU, and the APU can be paired with up to 128 GB of RAM.

MSI has confirmed that it is expanding its AI mini-PC lineup after releasing the EdgeXpert AI last year based on the Nvidia DGX Spark.

Asus has reissued the ProArt PX13, a year on from introducing Strix Point-powered models. This time, the ProArt PX13 has jumped to AMD's Strix Halo platform with an optional GoPro Edition that should stand out from the crowd with an eye-catching design.

The ExpertCenter PN55 is one of the new additions in Asus's portfolio from CES 2026. This mini PC is powered by the AMD Ryzen AI 400 series, with the top-end option being powered by an AI 9 HX CPU.

AMD has officially launched its "Gorgon Point" Ryzen AI 400 APUs at CES 2026. Featuring up to 12x Zen 5/5c cores and a Radeon 890M iGPU, Ryzen AI 400 chips are meant to strike a balance between performance and power efficiency.

BIOS updates may not have addressed all the complications with AMD’s popular gaming CPU. Since earlier in 2025, an internet cafe has seen 10% of its PCs relying on the Ryzen 7 9800X3D crash. Problem-prone ASRock motherboards aren’t to blame, but the systems used a second-rate PSU.

The Acemagic Tank M1A Pro+ is now official, and it's a new Strix Halo mini PC that features the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395. With the Radeon 8060S iGPU, 128GB of RAM, and advanced cooling, it promises to smoothly handle AI and gaming workloads.

There are three Lenovo ThinkPad laptops with AMD's high-end Strix Point CPU series. None of them have the option for a high quality OLED screen, despite these screens being an option for less expensive Krackan Point models. Is Lenovo making its AMD models again worse on purpose?

MSI now also offers its gaming handheld Claw 8 with an AMD processor. The question is why though, because our review reveals some ergonomic drawbacks compared to the Intel SKU and you also get 8 GB RAM less. The price is identical, so why should you get the AMD version?

HP is running a huge sale on its lightest 13-inch laptop yet just in time for the Holiday shopping season.

The ultralight subnotebook has surprisingly long battery life and respectable performance considering the weight and small size, but cut features elsewhere are notable.

AMD seemingly dominated the consumer desktop CPU market on Amazon US in November 2025. The top three revenue-generating CPUs were the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D, and the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. The Core Ultra 9 285K brought in the most cash for Intel, but the revenue was far less than the Ryzen CPUs.
