After successfully launching its Ryzen Mobile 4000 chips for consumer laptops, AMD has announced the launch of its updated line of Ryzen Pro processors. These new processors have up to eight of the latest Zen 2 cores, up to Vega 7 graphics and are built using the latest TSMC 7nm process node technology. Ryzen Pro is AMD's commercial platform purpose-built for corporate engagements, educational deployments, medical use cases, and any other environment that requires the ability to easily manage devices across an entire workforce. These processors have several features enabled that are not enabled in AMD consumer products and also require additional validation at the manufacturing level. The company's Ryzen Pro processors also include AMD's Memory Guard, which enables full encryption when a system is in hibernation mode to prevent potential attackers from accessing a user's data.
