AMD's laptop CPU naming schemes are, I can say with some confidence, difficult to parse even for those of us that make it our mission in life to keep track of them. So much so, in fact, that the company has previously resorted to handing out, the page showed Asus' Vivobook S 16 OLED line, each featuring a CPU named : the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 170.
So, what to make of this then? Well, a few options spring to mind. Firstly, this could well have been an accidental reveal of a branding change that resulted in a ticking off from AMD and a quick update to the page. It's also possible AMD planned on changing the naming scheme, reverted its decision later, and forgot to keep Asus in the loop.
What's in a name, eh? In this case a whole lot, it seems, and while it remains to be seen whether AMD does change up its naming scheme once again—and if that were to happen Computex in June would be the most likely time for that to happen—at the very least it would be something of a change from a four digit number variation into something that stands a chance of being quickly parsed without an explainer article, a decoder, and an eventual tension headache that brings us to our knees.
