Processors with the support of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors. Algorithms for ML improve their performance the more data they have collected via software. ML tasks can be processed up to 10,000 times faster than with a classic processor.
The integrated graphics unit of a processor is not only responsible for the pure image output on the system, but can also significantly increase the efficiency of the system with the support of modern video codecs.
A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Geekbench 5 is a cross plattform benchmark that heavily uses the systems memory. A fast memory will push the result a lot. The single-core test only uses one CPU core, the amount of cores or hyperthreading ability doesn't count.

Geekbench 6 is a benchmark for modern computers, notebooks and smartphones. What is new is an optimized utilization of newer CPU architectures, e.g. based on the big.LITTLE concept and combining CPU cores of different sizes. The single-core benchmark only evaluates the performance of the fastest CPU core, the number of CPU cores in a processor is irrelevant here.

What is new is an optimized utilization of newer CPU architectures, e.g. based on the big.LITTLE concept and combining CPU cores of different sizes. The multi-core benchmark evaluates the performance of all of the processor's CPU cores. Virtual thread improvements such as AMD SMT or Intel's Hyper-Threading have a positive impact on the benchmark result.

The theoretical computing performance of the internal graphics unit of the processor with simple accuracy (32 bit) in GFLOPS. GFLOPS indicates how many billion floating point operations the iGPU can perform per second.
In the Blender Benchmark 3.1, the scenes "monster", "junkshop" and "classroom" are rendered and the time required by the system is measured. In our benchmark we test the CPU and not the graphics card. Blender 3.1 was presented as a standalone version in March 2022.
Some of the CPUs listed below have been benchmarked by CPU-monkey. However the majority of CPUs have not been tested and the results have been estimated by a CPU-monkey’s secret proprietary formula. As such they do not accurately reflect the actual Passmark CPU mark values and are not endorsed by PassMark Software Pty Ltd.
Blender is a free 3D graphics software for rendering (creating) 3D bodies, which can also be textured and animated in the software. The Blender benchmark creates predefined scenes and measures the time (s) required for the entire scene. The shorter the time required, the better. We selected bmw27 as the benchmark scene.
The CPU-Z benchmark measures a processor's performance by measuring the time it takes the system to complete all benchmark calculations. The faster the benchmark is completed, the higher the score.

The two processors from this comparison are models with 4 cores. The AMD Ryzen 5 2400G came onto the market in the first quarter of 2018 and is based on the "Zen +" architecture, code-named Raven Ridge, produced in the 14 nanometer process. AMD released the AMD Ryzen 5 3400G a little over a year later in the second quarter of 2019. It is based on the improved "Zen +" architecture with the code name Picasso and is already manufactured using the somewhat smaller 12 nanometer process.
The equipment of the processors based on the AM4 socket is similar, but mainly differs in the timing. The 4 cores of the AMD Ryzen 5 2400G have a base clock frequency of 3.60 gigahertz and a maximum turbo clock of 3.90 gigahertz. The AMD Ryzen 5 3400G, on the other hand, has both the slightly higher base clock, at 3.70 gigahertz, and the higher maximum turbo clock, at 4.20 gigahertz. Both processors support Hyper-Threading Technology, as well as the possibility of overclocking.
In our benchmarks, the AMD Ryzen 5 2400G does only marginally worse than the AMD Ryzen 5 3400G. On average, the performance increase in the newer AMD Ryzen 5 3400G is around 5 percent.
The AMD Radeon Vega 11 Graphics uses the same internal graphics unit in both processors. This is equipped with 11 execution units (704 shader units) and is manufactured using 14 nanometer technology. As with the processor cores, there is also a deviation in the clock frequency. In the AMD Ryzen 5 2400G, the graphics unit clocks at 1.25 gigahertz, whereas the one in the AMD Ryzen 5 3400G clocks at 1.40 gigahertz and thus achieves an 11% higher FP32 computing power.
The two processors also support the operation of up to 64 gigabytes of RAM of the DDR4-2933 type.
