Not that great a deal when Zen3 based notebooks (5400/5600/5800U) have been out for over a year already.
It is baffling to me why AMD chose to have the odd-numbered 5000 series (5300/5500/5700) with Zen2, and the even-numbered 5000 with Zen3.

Oh no, it's actually even worse than that. 5300U/5500U/5700U are Zen 2 (Lucienne, Renoir Refresh). 5300G/5400U/5700G/5700H are Zen 3 (Cezanne). I find it remarkable how AMD started a completely new, fairly sane naming scheme from scratch and screwed it completely up within two generations (Remember 3200G/3400G? Pepperidge Farm remembers).
- webmobdev 4y agoI remember reading somewhere that this kind of convulated naming convention is intentional (both by Intel and AMD). Consumers prefer to buy the latest and fastest CPU they can afford. Such convulated designations confuse the consumer on what is the latest, and ensure old / previous generation stocks can still be sold for a good price.
