AMD Ryzen AI MAX+ 495 Information Leaked: Upgraded 8065S Integrated Graphics
There have been previous reports of AMD preparing the Ryzen AI MAX 400 series processors, codenamed GorgonHalo. However, it's a minor revision of the current StrixHalo, not a new architecture. It still uses the Zen5 CPU architecture and RDNA3.5 GPU, with the FP11 platform. The main improvements are higher clock speeds and larger memory support.
According to information from the PassMark database, the Ryzen AI MAX+ 495 features a 16-core, 32-thread CPU with a base frequency of 3.1GHz and a maximum boost frequency of up to 5.2GHz, paired with 16MB of L2 cache and 64MB of L3 cache. The GPU is a Radeon 8065S with 40 compute units and a slightly increased core frequency of 3.0GHz. Test data shows a single-core score of 4293 and a multi-core score of 57525. Compared to the previous generation flagship Ryzen AI MAX+ PRO 395, single-core and multi-core performance are improved by approximately 5% and 10% respectively. The GPU scored 1232 in the 2D benchmark and 18427 in the 3D benchmark, slightly higher than the Radeon 8060S.
This update also significantly increases memory capacity, with the test platform equipped with up to 192GB of LPDDR5X memory, far exceeding the previous generation's 128GB. According to AMD's dynamic memory allocation mechanism, up to approximately 168GB of memory can be allocated for GPU use. This means larger LLM models can be run locally, and as the Ryzen AI MAX series is designed for AI developers, this upgrade is a significant benefit.
It is reported that the AMD Ryzen AI MAX 400 "Gorgon Halo" series is expected to be officially released at the end of 2026 to early 2027. More detailed specifications are expected to be revealed further at the upcoming Computex 2026 in Taipei.
