Ryzen 7 4700U [in 18 benchmarks]

AMD started AMD Ryzen 7 4700U sales 7 January 2020. This is a Renoir (Zen 2) architecture notebook processor primarily aimed at office systems. It has 8 cores and 8 threads, and is based on 7 nm manufacturing technology, with a maximum frequency of 4200 MHz and a locked multiplier.

Compatibility-wise, this is AMD Socket FP6 processor with a TDP of 25 Watt. It supports DDR4-4266 memory.

It provides poor benchmark performance at

of a leader's which is AMD EPYC 9654.

Ryzen 7 4700U processor market type (desktop or notebook), architecture, sales start time and pricing.

Basic microprocessor parameters such as number of cores, number of threads, base frequency and turbo boost clock, lithography, cache size and multiplier lock state. These parameters can generally indicate CPU performance, but to be more precise you have to review its test results.

Information on Ryzen 7 4700U compatibility with other computer components and devices: motherboard (look for socket type), power supply unit (look for power consumption) etc. Useful when planning a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. Note that power consumption of some processors can well exceed their nominal TDP, even without overclocking. Some can even double their declared thermals given that the motherboard allows to tune the CPU power parameters.

Technological capabilities and additional instructions supported by Ryzen 7 4700U. You'll probably need this information if you require some particular technology.

Supported virtual machine optimization technologies. Some are specific to Intel only, some to AMD.

Types, maximum amount and channel number of RAM supported by Ryzen 7 4700U's memory controller. Depending on the motherboard, higher memory frequency may be supported.

TrueCrypt is a discontinued piece of software that was widely used for on-the-fly-encryption of disk partitions, now superseded by VeraCrypt. It contains several embedded performance tests, one of them being TrueCrypt AES, which measures data encryption speed using AES algorithm. Result is encryption speed in gigabytes per second.

Benchmark coverage: 13%

x264 Pass 2 is a slower variant of x264 video compression that produces a variable bit rate output file, which results in better quality since the higher bit rate is used when it is needed more. Benchmark result is still measured in frames per second.  

Benchmark coverage: 12%

x264 version 4.0 is a video encoding benchmark uses MPEG 4 x264 compression method to compress a sample HD (720p) video. Pass 1 is a faster variant that produces a constant bit rate output file. Its result is measured in frames per second, which means how many frames of the source video file were encoded per second.  

Benchmark coverage: 12%
