8 stands for 2024 btw.
The 4 means zen 4
Thank you AMD for a totally not confusing naming scheme for laptops.
What's so confusing about it? Isn't the naming convention public info? So those that care about model numbers can look up what's what - or am I missing something?
The issue is that it breaks the commonly accepted trend of bigger number better. You could have an 8520U get clapped by a 7540U for example, because even though the latter is newer, the former is Zen 4 to its Zen 2.
A 12900K also beats a 13400f
