AMD has unveiled the Ryzen 7 8700F and Ryzen 5 8400F processors, extending its Ryzen 8000F series, which is tailored for the Chinese market. These new entries are part of the "Hawk Point" series and are characterized by their absence of integrated graphics. The announcement was made during AMD's Beijing AI PC Innovation Summit, an event primarily focused on the introduction of the Ryzen 8040 mobile series and the 8000G desktop processors for the Chinese market. The Ryzen 8000F series processors, denoted by the "F" suffix, indicate the lack of onboard graphics. This designation often suggests that these chips bypass the inclusion of an integrated graphics unit, potentially due to manufacturing variances. The "F" series processors are typically offered at a slightly lower price point, catering to users who prefer or require discrete graphics solutions.

The Ryzen 7 8700F is anticipated to feature an 8-core and 16-thread configuration, mirroring the 8700G model but without the integrated graphics. On the other hand, the Ryzen 5 8400F's specifications are less certain, positioned between the 8500G and 8300G models, which have notably different configurations. Speculations suggest the 8400F could have a 6-core and 12-thread setup, possibly combining 2 Zen4 and 4 Zen4c cores.

Details regarding the Ryzen 8000F series were limited during the presentation, with the spotlight briefly on these processors in a slide shared by Twitter user HXL. This has led to industry speculation on the exact specifications and configurations of these new models. Previously, AMD had launched the Ryzen 5 7500F, a similar "F" series processor without integrated graphics, initially exclusive to the Chinese market before becoming available in other regions. This precedent suggests a possible pattern for the 8700F and 8400F processors, starting with a focus on the Chinese market before potentially expanding availability.
