Again, AMD’s future Strix Point “Zen 5” APU has been put to the test. It will have up to 12 next-generation Zen 5 cores. This time, it works faster than the Phoenix and Hawk Point APUs that are already out there².
The Details
- Cores and Threads: The Strix Point APU has 12 cores and 24 threads.
There is a base frequency of 5.11 GHz, but the real clock speeds are more like 2.3 to 2.4 GHz.
In terms of design, the Strix Point APU has a brand-new Zen 5 layout.
Results of Benchmarks
In terms of speed, the Strix Point APU is a big step up:
- Single-Core Score: A small improvement from the last score, getting to 1224 points.
- Multi-Threaded Score: Geekbench reports 12,754 points, which is a big gain. The clock speed went up by about 66%, which is why this number is 59% higher than the last one.
How It Compares to Other APUs
Let’s see how the Strix Point APU stacks up against other models:
- Dual-core Ryzen 9 Strix Point (12 Zen 5 Cores @ 2.3 GHz): 12,754 points
- 12,300 points for the Ryzen 9 8945HS (8 Zen 4 Cores @ 5.2 GHz).
- 12,200 points for Ryzen 9 7940HS (8 Zen 4 Cores @ 5.2 GHz)
- Ryzen 9 Strix Point (12 Zen 5 Cores @ 2.0 GHz): 11,978 points
- 8016 points for Ryzen 9 Strix Point (12 Zen 5 Cores @ 1.4 GHz)
Phoenix (Ryzen 9 7940HS) and Hawk Point (Ryzen 9 8945HS) APUs are faster than the Strix Point APU². You can expect big multithreaded speed boosts in the next generation of Ryzen 9000 mobile processors if these results hold up.
