AMD is expected to officially launch the next-generation Ryzen AI PRO 300 series on October 10th, aimed at enterprise-class business laptops with specs somewhat similar to the consumer-grade Ryzen AI 300 series.

There are two known models, the Ryzen AI 9 PRO HX 370 which replicates the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 in terms of specs, and the Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 which is considered to be a rehash of the Ryzen AI 9 365.

This turned out not to be the case.

A set of AMD KoratPlus-STXKRK reference designs have appeared on GeekBench, where STX corresponds to Strix Point and KRK corresponds to Krackan - both use the same base design, only the latter has lower specs and is cheaper.

According to testing, the Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 has only eight CPU cores, and it's the first Zen5 APU, which should comprise four Zen5 and four Zen5c cores, with a base frequency of 2.0GHz and a boost frequency of 5.0GHz.

It is also integrated with the Radeon 880M GPU, which features 12 RDNA3.5 cores.

Its AI scores are single-precision 3111, half-precision 3244, and quantized 9074, which are 33%, 30%, and 22% lower than the 10-core Ryzen AI 9 365, respectively.
