Acer swift 3 with amd ryzen cpu may be on the way

Acer Swift 3 could have a model with Ryzen Mobile processor

Last month, Acer released a new Swift 3 laptop but with the NVIDIA GeForce MGX150 graphics and quad-core Intel Kaby Lake-R processor, but it looks like the company could be played for an additional model of this laptop, but with the chip. AMD Ryzen 7 2700U.

This information is interesting and curious for two reasons. First of all, Acer has yet to announce this variant of its laptop. And second, AMD has yet to officially announce this processor.

The Ryzen 7 2700U is expected to be a quad-core chip with Radeon Vega graphics built into the same package. This processor will be part of the Ryzen Mobile chip family, which is also known by the code name "Raven Ridge" .

AMD wants to repeat Ryzen's success on laptops

AMD's Ryzen chips for desktops lack integrated graphics, but upcoming Ryzen Mobile chips are expected to be accelerated processing units (APUs), meaning they will have CPU + GPU capabilities. In this way, AMD wants to face the Kaby Lake-R chips and try to gain ground in the notebook segment, where lntel dominates with much comfort.

AMD is emboldened with the successful launch of Ryzen for desktop and now wants to repeat it on laptops , can you do it? We will know very soon.
