A:Answer This does appear to be the 6-core Ryzen AI 5 340 part. To clarify further, note that this has 3 Zen 5 Big cores clocked at 2-4.8 GHz plus 3 Zen 5c Little cores clocked at 2-3.4 GHz. These are the latest cores until Zen 6 comes out (probably 2026). This Big.Little Ryzen architecture is much better (in my opinion) than Intel’s Performance/Efficient Big.Little design since Efficient cores are hobbled to a subset of the full instruction set, whereas both Zen 5 and Zen 5c AMD cores have the full (Performance) instruction set - it’s just that the Zen 5c cores are about 2/3 as fast on average (for those rare times you need em). Furthermore, both Big and Little Zen 5(c) cores are hyperthreaded (run two separate threads per core). In contrast, all Intel Efficient cores run only one thread. For that matter, most recent Intel CPUs have only one thread per Performance core as well.
