However, these theories are just that - theories - as AMD has been silent on the matter. If anything, it seems Intel has too much fabrication firepower on the table, now that the company is agreeing to produce chips for other companies. Intel, on the other hand, does not suffer from this problem since it builds everything in-house and owns its own fabs. We've known for a while that TSMC is one of the busiest fabs in the entire world, and has struggled with providing enough wafers to its customers in a timely fashion, including orders going to AMD. These GPUs are commercially available in the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14, like the one we reviewed not too long ago.Īrguably, availability problems could be related to TSMC and AMD more so than the laptop manufacturers.

The only exception to this is AMD's Radeon RX 6000S series products including the RX 6700S and RX 6800S. The same goes with AMD's Radeon RX 6000M lineup of GPUs, which are all clearly absent from any gaming notebook on the market today.

ComputerBase also notes that AMD's entire lineup of 6000U series CPUs is completely missing from the retail market, with zero laptop manufacturers using the new chips at all. Ryzen 6000U Series CPUs and Radeon RX 6000M GPUs Are Completely Missingīut the story doesn't end there. So there are positives for laptop manufacturers to use AMD's new CPU architecture over Alder Lake, but it seems almost no one is taking advantage of AMD's potential. Arguably, these two attributes combined make a superior gaming laptop anyways, since games are more sensitive to single-core IPC, and long battery life is a welcome sight for any device that is designed to be used on the go. While consuming far less power as it seems with our G14 review. So despite Rembrandt being weak on the multi-threaded side of the equation, it remains very strong in single-core situations. While the 12700H counterparts could only reach 4 to 5 hours respectively. The 6900HS-powered G14 managed a whopping 10 hours and 14 minutes of battery life.

But most impressive results come from the battery life tests we conducted.
