Yeah...oh no, they won't support Intel's proprietary connection!!!!

Assuming USB4 is implemented, it's the same damn thing...but more open.

I do like that TB4 is finally not lying about 40gbps with display like TB3 was though.

like the other guy say, this is good/bad, but AMD staying on USB 4 means some OEM might just put some simple USB-C ports and call it a day.

So, while a step in the right direction, this might blow in their face.

USB 4 can have feature parity(*) with TB3, so these are great news!
(* - manufacturers may opt-out of supporting those modes, mostly due to product segmentation).

AMD is bridging the gap to Intel where it was most lagging behind: IO and the aging GPU. In turn, Intel is also likely to bridge the gap to AMD where it was most lagging behind: raw multicore performance.

2022 is going to be a very interesting year for laptops! Intel still keeps some features, while AMD still has a better fab node on its side. It's game on, we have competition!

Leaked product slides have showcased what AMD has up its sleeve for the Ryzen 6000 series of mobile processors. The series will feature RDNA 2 iGPUs and up to 8 CPU cores based on a new 6 nm process. The Zen 3+ architecture will be available across ten H-series and U-series SKUs, including the Ryzen 9 6980HX and the Ryzen 7 6800U.
