Details leaking through online benchmarking tools suggest the Surface Laptop 3 is going to ship with a choice of processors from Intel or AMD.
The current Windows 10-based Surface hardware currently ship with various products from Intel’s Core range of CPUs. Over the summerThe Surface family has a long relationship with Intel. If you were to look for the simplest answer then Microsot is making noises to ensure Intel keeps providing competitive quotes.
Yet there’s nothing wrong with diversifying the offerings in the Surface family. There’s a strong argument that ifis looking to keep the ecosystem in balance then it should be looking at other manufacturers such as AMD. Not only does that show other manufacturers that Windows 10 is not just for Intel silicon, it ensures that Microsoft and AMD share competencies that can ensure a wide and varied pool of components.
It now looks like Microsoft is going to take a small gamble and give AMD a trial run alongside Intel.
