The primary benchmark take a look at outcomes for the 16-core AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX Dragon Vary have been launched within the wild, and thus far the outcomes have been fairly promising.

The upcoming AMD processor was examined on Geekbench utilizing the Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 laptop computer, which has 32GB of DDR5 reminiscence clocked at 4800 MT/s. It was revealed, in keeping with the official Geekbench website (opens in new tab) and reported on by VideoCardz (opens in new tab), that its common CPU scores have been 2061 and 18685 factors in single and multi-core checks, respectively. Its highest scores have been 2127 factors in single-core and 19403 factors in multi-core.

This locations the Ryzen 9 7945HX on the high of the cellular single-core rankings and just under the Intel 13th Gen Core i9-HX collection in multi-core. That is notably spectacular for the reason that AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX has fewer cores than the Intel Core i9-13980HX (16-core versus 24-core), and so they each have the identical thread depend (32-thread depend).

It’s additionally spectacular that this makes the Ryzen 9 7945HX Dragon Vary greater than twice as quick because the earlier gen Rembrandt chips, which is sensible for the reason that former additionally has twice the core depend because the latter. The Ryzen 9 7945HX’s max clock speeds may attain as much as 5.four GHz with 55 watts, and the TDP may be configured for 75 watts.

AMD beforehand revealed the existence of the 16-core Ryzen 9 7945HX throughout its CES 2023 keynote. 

AMD is respiration down Intel’s neck

Competitors continues to warmth up between Group Crimson and Group Blue within the cellular processor market, with high-end chips matchups neck-and-neck. It’s attention-grabbing to see these leaked cellular CPU benchmarks checks thus far this gen, and the way shut these chips are to one another in efficiency.

If these checks proceed to be favorable, this might make AMD’s Dragon Vary collection of CPUs a number of the greatest AMD processors and even the most effective processors on the market generally. And if Group Crimson is releasing chips that may compete with Group Blue’s personal silicon for a less expensive worth, it might make for a really favorable state of affairs for the previous.

Thus far that entrance isn’t too shabby, because the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 refresh geared up with mentioned CPU begins at $1,499. However hopefully, we’ll see extra pricing as extra laptops are launched with each the Ryzen 9 7945HX and Core i9-13980HX.
