From PC Mag: AMD is paving the way for more powerful Chromebooks by bringing its Zen 3 architecture to the Google-powered laptops.
The result is the Ryzen 5000 C-Series chips, which will start arriving in Chromebooks slated to launch in June and July.
The most powerful chip in the family is the Ryzen 7 5825C, which AMD claims is the world’s first high-performance 8-core x86 processor for Chromebooks. It features a max boost speed of 4.5GHz, 20MB of cache, and eight built-in GPU cores.
The new CPU family represents a sizable upgrade from the Ryzen and Athlon 3000 C-Series from two years ago, which were built on the older Zen+ and Zen architecture and featured only 6MB or 5MB of cache.
