AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 — Local LLM Performance & Compatibility

Written by Jakub Rusinowski · Last updated September 19, 2026

Strix POINT, not Strix Halo: 12 Zen 5 cores with a 16-CU Radeon 890M on a 128-bit memory bus. 120 GB/s reflects the LPDDR5X-7500 fitted in machines like the Beelink SER9; AMD's own spec page quotes 89.6 GB/s for DDR5-5600 configurations, so the figure depends on the memory a builder solders down. Either way it is roughly half the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 this catalogue used to model it as.
