CES 2021: AMD Announces New Ryzen 5000U Processors with Up to 8 Zen 3 Cores at 4.4GHz for Ultra-thin Laptops
Source: Geeknetic added 12th Jan 2021
AMD today introduced a new batch of processors for high-performance and large-scale laptops, with frequencies up to 4.8GHz, but there is also a real need on the part of users with ultraportable equipment that, although not of a great graphic power that needs the installation of a dedicated GPU, they do need a CPU performance to match.
That is why AMD has also launched processors with up to 8 cores with TDPs of 15 W, based on both architectures Zen 2 as Zen 3, for with performance on the level of what is expected of this series of processors of the company.

As we can also see under these lines, the models with Zen 3 architecture will arrive with double the L3 cache, something that we saw in the architecture presentation, while the Zen 2 models arrive with more modest figures than this memory.
In any case, all models of the new generation of AMD Ryzen U Series processors arrive with a performance increase compared to previous models that reaches a 16% improvement in multithreaded performance at the same number of cores, so, in short, we will find ourselves facing very thin and light equipment at the same time that powerful that can be part of a desktop using high speed connections with an external GPU, for example.
AMD Ryzen 7 5800 U
AMD has shown performance data for the AMD Ryzen 7 5800 U, and as expected with the type of equipment to which this range of low-power processors is aimed, we found a much of it dedicated to productivity software.
While PCMark is a synthetic benchmark, it does a good job of measuring system responsiveness, providing performance up to 23% higher compared to Intel Core i7 – 1165 G7. However, in traditional applications, we find that the results are more similar between models, with a 2% lower performance in Word, a 21% higher in Excel, identical in PowerPoint and 7% higher in Edge.
At the energy level, we find a autonomy of about 17 hours and a half in use general, with an autonomy of up to 21 hours in movies, figures that demonstrate the great efficiency of these processors when they only require sufficient performance to work or enjoy them.
