AMD Vega Mobile GPUs spotted in benchmarks

Radeon Vega Mobile in Raven Ridge APUs

While AMD is trying to get its RX Vega desktop graphics cards to the market, its Radeon Vega Mobile GPUs have been spotted in Kishonti's CompuBench and GFXBench benchmarks.

Originally spotted by Computerbase.de, the leaked GPUs are named by these benchmarks as the Radeon Vega 10 Mobile and Radeon Vega 8 Mobile. Both are based on Radeon Vega 10 GPU  - not to be confused with the Vega 10 desktop GPU - and are a part of AMD's upcoming Ryzen Mobile 2000 series APUs (the Ryzen 7 2700U and Ryzen 5 2500U), which combine Zen-based CPU with Vega-based GPU.

It also appears that these IGPs will bring some confusion to the market as the Ryzen 7 2700U comes with Radeon Vega 10 Mobile, which packs eight Compute Units (CUs) or a total of 512 Stream Processors, while the Ryzen 5 2500U comes with Radeon Vega 8 Mobile, which has 11 CUs and 704 Stream Processors.

RADEON VEGA 8 MOBILE — CL_DEVICE_MAX_COMPUTE_UNITS: 11
RADEON VEGA 10 MOBILE — CL_DEVICE_MAX_COMPUTE_UNITS: 8

Of course, bear in mind that these are just early leaks and might not be completely accurate and names could be changed at the later date.

In any case, these APUs could pack a significant punch with such a combination, offering decent performance on both the CPU and the GPU side. As we wrote earlier, notebooks with Ryzen Mobile APUs should be on the shelves for the holiday season.
