AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495 Spotted With 192GB Memory and New iGPU
AMD appears to be preparing a new flagship mobile APU, as the Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495 has surfaced in an early PassMark database entry. The listing, recorded on April 15, provides the first indication of this processor, which is expected to lead the Ryzen AI Max 400 "Gorgon Halo" lineup aimed at professional and enterprise-class laptops. According to the benchmark data, the processor features a 16-core, 32-thread CPU configuration, aligning it with high-performance mobile workstation requirements. It is paired with a Radeon 8065S integrated GPU, which represents a step beyond the Radeon 8060S found in the previously known Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 395. While detailed architectural differences remain unclear, the updated GPU designation suggests a revision or incremental improvement within AMD's integrated graphics stack. The test platform used for this entry is identified as an HP system with motherboard code 8F6D, indicating that OEM validation is already underway. The configuration also reveals the use of LPDDR5X memory, consistent with AMD's approach to unified memory in its AI-focused APUs. One of the standout details is the reported memory capacity. The system is equipped with 192GB of LPDDR5X, exceeding the 128GB limit seen in earlier Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 395 systems. This suggests that AMD may be extending memory support in this generation, which would directly benefit workloads that rely heavily on large datasets, such as AI inference, machine learning, and professional content creation. The combination of a high core count, upgraded integrated graphics, and expanded memory capacity positions the Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 495 as a strong candidate for next-generation mobile workstations. While official specifications and launch details have yet to be confirmed, the early benchmark appearance indicates that development and platform integration are already in progress.

AMD Ryzen AI MAX+ 495 "Gorgon Halo" Leak Smokes Strix Halo by 10%, Packs 192GB Memory and Radeon 8065S
AMD's next-generation Halo flagship, the Ryzen AI MAX+ 495, has leaked out, featuring a 10% bump in performance & a new Radeon 8065 iGPU. Earlier this year, we reported that AMD was working on a new Halo family called Ryzen AI MAX 400, and codenamed Gorgon Halo. Just like Strix Point to Strix Halo, Gorgon Halo will offer similar architectures as Gorgon Point "Ryzen AI 400" SoCs, but elevate the configurations with more cores, beefier GPU, and lots of memory in a chiplet design. The flagship chip has now leaked out at PassMark, the AMD Ryzen AI MAX+ 495. The chip in particular is the PRO variant, but it should retain the same specifications as the standard Non-Pro offerings. In terms of cores, the APU will feature 16 "Zen 5" processor cores with 32 threads. These will operate at slightly better clock speeds while retaining the same 16 MB L2 and 64 MB L3 cache. For graphics, the AMD Ryzen AI MAX+ 495 will feature the Radeon 8065S GPU, which seems to be a slightly faster variant of the Radeon 8060S with higher clock speeds, though we don't expect a higher core count. The chip was spotted on a platform with 192 GB of memory, much higher than the 128 GB memory that Strix Halo currently supports. This will be fantastic for running large LLMs, as based on the current VRAM allocation, that's 168 GB of memory that could be allocated to the GPU (87.5%). There's also 2 TB of SSD on the tested laptop alongside a 120Hz (2560x1600) display. In terms of performance, the APU scored 4293 points in the single-core and 57,525 points in the multi-core tests, which is a 10% improvement over the Ryzen AI MAX+ PRO 395. The GPU scored 1232 points in 2D and 18,427 points in 3D benchmark runs. AMD's Ryzen AI MAX 400 "Gorgon Halo" lineup is expected to launch either later this year or early next year since Strix Halo recently got two new additions. The standard Ryzen AI 400 "Gorgon" laptop SoCs are already out in the markets, so we can expect more information about the Halo lineup at Computex 2026.
