AMD includes the Ryzen 9 4900H and Ryzen 9 4900HS in the Renoir Ryzen 4000 APU lineup: faster base clocks than the Core i9-9880H at 45W TDP

[Redaktion]

AMD has added the Ryzen 9 4900H and Ryzen 9 4900HS to its list of Ryzen 4000 APUs. While the H-series is rated at a 45W TDP and is OEM-configurable, the HS series will have a default 35W TDP and be available only to select OEM partners whose laptops pass AMD's validation and testing. AMD is pitting the Ryzen 9 4900HS against the Intel Core i9-9880H and according to internal benchmarks, the APU has managed an impressive show so far.

AMD be like: "I gonna end their entire Mobile Portfolio!"   ;D

[william blake]

with such a dominance in performance and technology why amd plans for 2020 are still insignificant market share?

Let's wait and see how it performs against Intel 10th gen.

;D  ;D I am glad that there's finally a viable alternative for gaming laptops.

It will take time before we see the market trends changing. At least, the foundation is solid this time.

yeah even I am curious. Intel has the TVB advantage but apart from that, 10th isn't that much different from CFL-Refresh.

The Ryzen 4900HS seems a lot like the 4800H. I don't understand the reason for it's existence if the main difference is .1% clock speed. Am I missing something?

The power envelope and GPU cores are the main differences.

The HS series is for 'cooler' laptops, such as thin and light while still maintaining high performance. The value leap from 4800HS to 4900HS is what bothers me, a 100 MHz clock boost is good, but not great value. The core graphics is a moot point as most laptops that house the HS will be gaming and have dedicated GPU anyways. If it was 200 or 300 MHz (like the full H chip) then I would say its definitely good value. I think the 4900HS is only worth about $50-100 more than the 4800HS in terms of performance per dollar.
