Recently introduced AMD Ryzen mobile processors 5000, belonging to the fourth generation Cezanne APU. In our editorial office, we have already started testing one of the flagship Cezanne-H units and we are very curious how it will finally present a new system based on Zen 3 architecture. Meanwhile, AMD is preparing another premiere, which will be Cezanne desktop APU processors, belonging to the Ryzen series 5000 G. We still don’t know much about the processors themselves, as their debut is expected in the summer. The flagship model is to be 8-core and 16 – threaded AMD Ryzen 7 5800 G, which, according to the current information, is to be more efficient than the AMD Ryzen 7 5800 X unit. The GPU-Z database, in turn, provides some new information about the APU.

According to the information provided by the GPU-Z software, the AMD Ryzen 7 processor 5800 G will have 16 PCIe 3.0 line for the graphics card and integrated Radeon Graphics (Vega 8).

AMD Ryzen 7 5800 The G is the most efficient representative of the new generation APU Cezanne. Contrary to last year’s models, this time the processors are based on the Zen 3 architecture. Nevertheless, we will still be “stuck” to the Vega graphics chips. This is confirmed by the entry from the GPU-Z software, which states the use of iGPU Radeon Vega 8 in the Ryzen 7 system 5800 G. This is the same Vega 8 that was already available in APU Renoir. Although the program reports the clock speed at 1800 MHz, we are sure that it will eventually be a higher frequency. Vega 8 in the top APU Cezanne-H reaches 2100 MHz, so for the desktop version with a higher TDP (65 W), we expect an even higher clock.

The processor still has a DDR4 memory controller clocked at 3200 MHz. The test platform on which the processor was installed had DDR4 memory 3600 MHz, which at 128 – the iGPU bit memory bus gives a bandwidth of 57, 6 GB / s. The new Cezanne APU, as in the mobile version, uses the PCIe 3.0 interface to connect to the graphics card. Unlike the Cezanne-H, however, the desktop APU has 16 PCIe 3.0 lanes for the GPU. For comparison, Ryzen series mobile processors 5000 only have 8 PCIe 3.0 lanes for dGPU.
