AMD Unveils Ryzen AI MAX 400 'Gorgon Halo' with Faster Clocks and 8533 LPDDR5X
AMD is refreshing its Ryzen AI MAX 400 lineup with the Gorgon Halo family, adding five SKUs that keep the same core specs as the Strix Halo/Strix but boost CPU/GPU clocks, speed up the NPU (targeting roughly 55–60 TOPS), and support LPDDR5X-8533 memory. The flagship MAX+ 495 uses Zen 5 cores (16C/32T) and a Radeon 8060S GPU with clocks raised to 3.1 GHz base, 5.2 GHz boost and 3.0 GHz GPU; other SKUs include MAX+ 492, MAX 490, MAX+ 488, and MAX 485 with varying CPU/GPU counts. All chips have a 55W base TDP (adjustable to 45W) up to 120W, and AMD plans a launch later this year or early next year alongside the Strix Halo refresh.
