With the new Ryzen CPUs and RDNA 2 GPUs soon to launch next month, the engineering team at AMD must be hard at work with something else by now. Well, if rumours are to be trusted, then it would seem that the next-gen of Ryzen APUs are a heavy focus and it'll deliver some big surprises.

It's important to note that laptops are not like desktop PCs, in that many of the components can't be replaced. So, how do we choose a laptop that suits us? Well, let's take a look at four key tech specs you need to consider before you choose your laptop!

Last week, AMD finally confirmed the launched dates for its next-gen Radeon graphics cards. The RX 6000 series GPUs won't be unveiled until 28 October 2020, but that doesn't mean that the leaks haven't been coming our way. In fact, AMD was kind enough to show us how the new GPUs could look like.

Not long after benchmark of an alleged AMD RDNA2 GPU was found online, details of AMD Zen 3 CPUs were leaked as well. Sources claim that AMD's next-generation of desktop CPU would indeed come with SKUs with up to 16 cores and 32 threads. Not that there was any doubt on that!

Nvidia has taken a big lead in the GPU race this year with the announcement of its GeForce RTX 3080 and 3090 cards. That's why fans of team red must have been relieved to see AMD announce that its RDNA2 GPUs would be unveiled in late October. Now, a new leaked benchmark could provide us with an idea of how well one of AMD's new GPUs could perform.

Have you been waiting for new PC components before deciding on what to buy? Well, it looks like the wait is over for AMD fans as the company has confirmed that new products will be coming soon. The Zen 3 CPUs will be unveiled on 8 October 2020, while the RDNA2-based GPUs will be announced on 28 October 2020.

A while back, it was rumoured that the new Exynos 1000 chipset from Samsung could outperform the Snapdragon 865 in terms of GPU performance. But it looks like Samsung's next flagship chipset won't have what it takes to beat the upcoming Snapdragon 875 chipset.
