AMD has announced the launch of laptops based on Rembrandt’s Ryzen 6000 series mobile processors. As of today, only computers based on Ryzen 6000HS chips will be available for sale. Products based on the flagship H- and HX-series processors, as well as energy-efficient U-series chips, will go on sale in early March.

AMD also announced that the company will introduce Ryzen PRO 6000 mobile processors for enterprise computers and workstations in mid-March.
In addition to the main characteristics of the new mobile processors from Rembrandt (6nm process technology, Zen 3+ architecture and frequencies up to 5 GHz), which AMD spoke about during their presentation, the manufacturer paid more attention to the new integrated graphics of the Radeon 600M series based on RDNA 2 architecture as part of Ryzen 6000 chips.
The company claims that the integrated graphics on the new processors offer better performance than the Intel Iris (Xe-LP) integrated graphics, even in the energy-efficient Ryzen 6000U models designed for use in thin and compact Ultrabooks. According to AMD internal testing, the Intel Iris “plug-in” delivers between 26 and 47 frames per second in popular games. The Radeon 680M, on the other hand, produces between 47 and 73 frames per second with 12 compute units in the same games.
AMD also compared the new integrated graphics from Rembrandt to the GeForce MX 450 and GeForce GTX 1650 Max-Q mobile graphics cards. The last AMD solution loses in terms of raw performance, but support for AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) and Radeon Super Resolution (RSR) scaling technologies allows the Reds’ integrated graphics to take the lead.
Since the AMD FSR image scaling technology uses an open standard, the GeForce GTX 1650 Max-Q can theoretically also support it. This graphics card cannot work with its own proprietary NVIDIA DLSS scaling technology because the accelerator is based on a Turing chip without the tensor cores required for this technology.
The manufacturer also paid attention to the younger “built-in” Radeon 660M with six RDNA 2 cores operating at frequencies up to 1.9 GHz. It is used as part of the Ryzen 5 6600U processor. AMD compared its solution with the integrated graphics of the Intel Core i5-1135G7 (Tiger Lake-U) processor. Both chips have the same TDP up to 28W.
The AMD solution delivered at least 43 frames per second in all tested games. With the inclusion of AMD FSR, the performance of the Radeon 660M increased even further, delivering an unconditional victory over even the GeForce GTX 1650 Max-Q.
The frame rate of the Radeon 660M was between 43 and 89 fps in Godfall, Deathloop and Back 4 Blood, depending on the game, while the competition displayed 15 to 41 fps.
