AMD Strix Halo is expected to be presented at CES 2025 in early January, an APU with an extremely large RDNA 3.5 iGPU with up to 40 compute units instead of 16 as Strix Point (test). A month ago, four variants were rumored, and the largest is now in the Geekbench database.
First entry in the Geekbench database
This was brought to our attention by the bot “Benchleaks” on X, which searches the public database for previously unknown products. Since the free version of Geekbench automatically loads the results into the database, this benchmark test is a popular source of information on unreleased hardware.
The benchmark entry confirms the latest rumored name for the top-of-the-line AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 model as well as its iGPU (Radeon 8060S), the 16 Zen 5 cores (Strix Point offers a maximum of 4 Zen 5 cores and 8 Zen 5c cores).

As with Phoenix, Hawk Point, and Strix Point, AMD continues to forgo the addition of “RX” for integrated graphics units, but with Strix Halo, it is switching to the four-digit name familiar to full-size desktop and laptop GPUs. Since the Radeon RX 6000 Mobile, the suffix “S” designates particularly efficient variants.
What should we think of the result?
What to make of the benchmark result of 67,004 points (Vulkan) remains to be seen. Often, pre-production models are not yet running at full power or the driver is limited. For comparison: even the slowest RDNA 3 graphics card, the Radeon RX 7600 with only 32 computing units, reaches almost 100,000 points. However, this dGPU can also consume 165 watts. A high TDP, but no TDP above 100 watts, is to be expected for the Strix Halo.
