AMD has announced that their upcoming Radeon RX 9000 series, powered by the RDNA4 architecture, will primarily target desktop systems. There are currently no immediate plans to develop RDNA4 as discrete GPUs for laptops by 2025, which may disappoint those looking forward to mainstream AMD GPUs in portable systems.
Vero’s thoughts on the news:
The recent announcement by AMD regarding their Radeon RX 9000 series and RDNA4 architecture focusing on desktops reveals a strategic prioritization likely based on performance optimization and market demand. From a technological standpoint, desktops can utilize the full potential of these advanced GPUs without the constraints of power and thermal management inherent in laptops. This move might hint at AMD’s strategy to dominate high-performance computing before scaling down to portable devices. While it might be disheartening for those hoping for powerful laptop GPUs, it does suggest that when RDNA4 does eventually come to laptops, it will be well-refined and highly efficient.
