Choosing an AMD Ryzen laptop

AMD’s Ryzen processors compete directly with Intel’s, tier for tier: Ryzen 3 for basic use, Ryzen 5 for most people, Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 9 for heavier work and gaming. The newest chips are called Ryzen AI and include an AI engine that qualifies some laptops as Copilot+ PCs.

Ryzen chips often have strong built-in graphics, which makes them a good choice for light gaming without a dedicated graphics card. They’re also known for good multi-core performance in gaming and creator laptops.

As with Intel, the generation matters: the first digit of the model number (for example 7 in Ryzen 5 7530U) shows its family. Compare our Everyday speed label to see how chips line up.
