Intel has released a manual in PDF format in an attempt to:"Inspire your customers"How AMD's latest processor lineup is different. Intel has taken a big hit at AMD's mobile product, the Ryzen 7020 series, and its complex brand architecture. Intel likened the Zen 2-based Ryzen 5 7520U to snake oil, claiming"Selling half-truths to unsuspecting customers has a long history"。
AMD often continues to use older technology to provide customers with more affordable products, which is a great strategy for people on a tight budget or who don't need the latest, greatest. The problem is that the recent rebranding, in addition to being confusing, has made old technology look like new technology. Intel's"core truth"Expressing displeasure with this approach, pointing out that the Ryzen 5 7520U is built on the outdated ZEN 2 architecture from 2019 and trying to make it look more advanced from 2022.
Intel compared the Ryzen 5 7520U to the Core i5-1335U, which received a high score of 83% in the Crossmark benchmark developed by the company Bapco (which is probably not the most unbiased indicator, as both AMD and Nvidia have accused the company of favoring Intel in the past), stresses"Latest doesn't always mean up-to-date"。
The company has hinted that untruthful customers could mistakenly think that the Ryzen 5 7520U is the latest, simply because it has the number 7 in its name, just like the latest AM5 CPUs. In fact, only the third number represents the schema. Intel says the truth is hidden in plain sight (orange stickers can also help), but at the same time it's hard to spot.

Here's how to decrypt the name of AMD's mysterious processor:
The first number represents the year of release: 7 – 2022, 8 – 2023, 9 – 2024, etc.
The second number indicates the segments: 1 and 2 - Athlon, 3 and 4 - Ryzen 3, etc.
The third number represents the architecture: 2 - zen 2, 3 - zen 3, 4 - zen 4, etc.
The fourth digit indicates functional isolation: 0 - lower limit model, 5 - upper limit model.
The letters indicate TDP and form factor: U - Ultrabook, HS - Gaming Laptop, etc.
So, you can understand the Ryzen 5 7520U as a mid-level ZEN 2 processor released in 2022 for ultrabooks with 15-28W TDP.
AMD is positioning the Ryzen 7020 processor as an affordable device and education market with more advanced IGPUs. Intel retorted"The future of education and academic Xi depends on the latest technology", adding that the Intel Core i3-N305 offers faster performance in benchmarking, or**editing.
