Another day, another benchmark. Today, we have the Ryzen AI 9 365 APU, a 10-core variant of Strix Point. This processor features 4 Zen5 cores and 6 Zen5c cores, with a maximum boost up to 5.0 GHz (though AMD has yet to confirm the clocks for the dense cores).

Detailed benchmark results indicate that the CPU was running at 4.43 GHz for most of the test. This could be an average between the larger and smaller cores, as Geekbench does not seem optimized to detect both core types, unlike Intel’s heterogeneous architectures.

The new benchmark results show the CPU scoring 2544 points in the single-core test and 12,745 points in the multi-core test. These values are lower than expected, possibly due to the laptop not being optimized or being power-limited. Strix Point APUs now cover 15 to 54W TDP segments, allowing laptop makers to set the default TDP as they see fit. Unfortunately, this means we do not know the exact TDP for this test.

Based on the leaked review results, it’s safe to say that individual SKUs could offer vastly different scores. While the exact impact of TDP on these scores remains unclear, it could become necessary for laptop manufacturers to include TDP information alongside the SKU. Even more so, because the upcoming Ryzen AI 300 series will combine the U, HS, and HX variants into a single offering, simplifying the lineup.

Initial reports suggest that laptops featuring the Ryzen AI 9 365 won’t hit the market before late July. Lenovo has yet to unveil its Strix Point laptops, but announcements are anticipated in the upcoming weeks.
