Amd ryzen 7 4700u easily outperforms i7

AMD introduced the Ryzen 4000 series of APU processors, claiming it would be "the best of all time." A rather daring statement when you consider that the red company started its journey with Ryzen on laptops last year. At the event they presented two processors on stage, the Ryzen 7 4700U and 4800U.

Ryzen 7 4700U, First performance results

A report by TechPowerUp gives us a first look at the performance of the Ryzen 7 4700U, which gives us an idea of ​​the power it will offer in the field of notebooks. The tests were conducted on GeekBench and reportedly originated from a Lenovo laptop.

AMD's new processor scores 4, 910 single-core points and 21, 693 in multi-core testing, the 8-core, 16-thread processor easily outperforms the Intel i7-1065G7. A processor known to score around 4, 400 points in single-core tests and 17, 000 points in multi-core.

Therefore, this suggests that AMD notebook processors have not only managed, at least in part, to match Intel's current line of world-class processors, but have also far exceeded it.

One of the biggest problems with the previous Ryzen laptop platform was its power consumption. Simply put, manufacturers had to place very specific limits on the maximum CPU performance to ensure a relatively reasonable battery life.

So you can only hope that with the 65 watt TDP used in the AMD Ryzen 4700U, Team Red has found a way to mitigate this problem. However, we still cannot guarantee its good performance in the energy consumption section until we see new tests or until the very launch of laptops with these chips in the first quarter.

As is the situation right now, AMD is in a position to gain market share also in laptops, totally dominated by Intel's proposals. We will keep you informed.
