ASUS ExpertBook A7 adds AMD Ryzen AI 5 and 7 options with 3K OLED display, but storage caps at 512 GB

ASUS just brought in two more processors for the ExpertBook A7 lineup, these are AMD Ryzen AI flavors that allow for the more balanced and efficient approach or go multi-threaded a bit more. It is important because now with the newer zen 5 stuff it is more of a modern approach to what was offered by Intel which business users focused on may be more interested in iGPU capabilities or maybe power profile. For anyone looking for a light 14" laptop with great res we have a clear path to integration of AMD flavors without compromising on the display itself.

Zen 5 processors and 120 Hz OLED screen defined by 512 GB storage limit

These are running the new Krackan Point 2 hardware with the options of AMD Ryzen AI 5 330 and Ryzen AI 7 345. For the 5 you will have 4 cores 8 threads, a boost up to 4.5 GHz as well as Radeon 820M iGPU. For the 7 it's a step up to 6 cores and 12 threads going as high as 4.6 GHz with radeon 840M iGPU which is a slight improvement in the throughput.
