Seeing the trend of gaming laptops increasing since 2020 and is predicted to continue to increase, AMD developed a framework to produce gaming laptops optimally, called the AMD Advantage Design Framework.
There are three basic concepts offered in the AMD Advantage Design Framework, namely Amplified Performance, Premium Display, and Built to Game. Let’s discuss all three.
- Amplified Performance comes with the ability to provide faster response speeds in every computing activity through smart AMD SmartShift and AMD Smart Access Memory technologies, high fidelity gaming and video streaming, as well as improved response times for better gaming thanks to the presence of Radeon technology. Anti-Lag and also Radeon Boost.
- Premium Display is a premium display feature without shutter and tearing to pamper users. For gamers, they can enjoy stunning graphics while playing games, starting from a minimum brightness level of 300 nits, 100% sRGB, and 72% NTSC with OLED or IPS panels, as well as a refresh rate of up to 144 Hz. All of that is presented in the AMD Advantage laptop line.
- Built to Game, a line of AMD Advantage-based gaming laptops also provides 3x faster response speeds through the use of NVMe storage. The series of AMD Advantage laptops also have a cooling system that is much more optimal which can produce low temperatures in the area around the palm rest, especially in the W, A, S, D button sectors that remain stable at temperatures less than 40 degrees Celsius, and also battery life resistance. which can exceed 10 hours for gaming satisfaction. Another plus is the battery life of up to more than 10 hours, Bluetooth 5.1, and WiFi 6, and other modern features.
In a statement received by detikINET, Tuesday (5/10/2021) Laptops labeled AMD Advantage are promised to provide optimal and consistent performance for various activities, both for gaming and content creation, because they are also supported by technologies such as AMD SmartShift and AMD Smart Access Memory.
AMD SmartShift
AMD SmartShift technology is a feature that can make the system more dynamic by transferring power and energy to improve performance according to needs, for example when playing games, more power will be transferred to the GPU. Meanwhile, when doing work that requires extra performance on the CPU, such as rendering activities, the power will be diverted to the CPU.
AMD Smart Access Memory
AMD Smart Access Memory is a technology that allows AMD Ryzen processors to access graphics card memory for higher frame rates in gaming. AMD Smart Access Memory technology was introduced in the AMD Radeon RX 6000 Series graphics card. Now the implementation is also applied to AMD Advantage-based laptops to provide the best gaming performance.
RX 6000M Graphics Card Support With RDNA 2 Architecture
AMD Advantage provides a number of graphics card options with the latest RDNA 2 architecture, such as the AMD Radeon RX 6800M which is intended for hardcore gamers with a minimum power consumption of 145 watts with gaming performance at 1440p resolution.
Compared to graphics cards in its class, the AMD Radeon RX 6800M is claimed to be able to provide the highest performance in almost a number of AAA class games. Call it Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Borderlands 3, Call of Duty, Dirt 5, and Resident Evil Village which successfully reached more than 60 FPS, and even reached 120 FPS more at 1440p resolution with right-aligned settings.
Then there is the AMD Radeon RX 6700M which is present for middle-class gamers who want quality gaming with a resolution of 1080p to 1440p with a power consumption of 135 watts. While the last is the AMD Radeon RX 6600M graphics card for casual gamers that offers 1080p FHD resolution and a maximum power consumption of 100 watts.
With the latest RDNA 2 architecture, the AMD Advantage line of laptops powered by the AMD Radeon RX 6000M graphics card is promised to have 1.5 times faster performance, 43% less power, up to 1.77 times better gaming capabilities compared to the previous generation architecture. .
The RDNA 2 architecture brings a number of features that are ready to pamper gamers and performance-hungry users, such as AMD Infinity Cache capable of delivering high bandwidth, and the Realtime Power Cycling feature enabling optimal performance with lower power consumption. In addition, there is also a Near 0-watt idle to provide very low power consumption in the idle position.
Currently, there are several series of gaming laptops with the AMD Advantage label, which are made by Asus, HP, Lenovo and MSI. In addition, AMD is also holding a ‘Raise the Game Bundle’ program which runs from September 9, 2021 to December 31, 2021.
Through this program, AMD will provide gamers with free access to Far Cry 6 and Resident Evil Village for every purchase of eligible AMD Radeon RX 6000M Series and AMD Ryzen 5000 H-Series powered gaming laptops, as well as AMD Advantage systems from OEM partners.
